Thank you, Udo.
(I would hope nobody misunderstands, but I am entirely serious.)

> lame and trollish
I partially agree. On one hand, it is both. On the other hand, like I said above, someone would post the question.
> I believe getting points for posting stories is a bug anyway.
I completely agree. Actually encouraging conversation and actively adding to the conversation is much better for the community. Perhaps 25% or 50% points for posts would level the field.
- Udo 13y agoI didn't mean it as a personal attack, but I do stand by the assertion that it was a pretty lame thing to do. I'm curious - if you don't mind my asking: what are you thanking me for?
- lukeqsee 13y agoI thanked you because you accurately and fairly assessed my actions. A large reason I post or comment on HN is to receive constructive criticism (which is why I admitted to existence of self-interest). You provided it, and that’s why I’m thanking you. nhangen falsely critiqued my actions as complaining and then turned my own admission against me; you fairly accessed that (IMO). You also added to the conversation with your own assessment of the broad trend, i.e., posts are worth points. I think all of those actions are worthy of thanking.
