Starting a War on Hacker News
- aaroncray 13y ago"When a post goes viral, I get a hardcore adrenaline rush. Straight to the brain." You need to get out more. This site is so scene whore it's hilarious..
- kumarski 13y agoI've started tuning out the negativity in comments. I look for the constructive criticism or relevant links.
- mkrecny 13y agoThere's a lot of unnecessary trolling, which I try to tune out as well. However there are some genuinely great debates that happen in the comments .. often better reads than the original content.
- ZanderEarth32 13y agoCompared to most websites HN still has an extremely small amount of trolling and negativity. The community does a good job of policing it on their own for the most part.
- kumarski 13y agoThe comments I like the most focus on how to better build and reach more customers. I like some of the e-mails I get from HN readers.
- mathattack 13y agoI think the idea of the post isn't to tune out the negativity, but to thrive on it. If all the feedback is positive, you get a couple pats on the back and are forgotten. If you anger and thrill people in equal enough proportions, you have a discussion.
