It doesn't seem fair. If the OP (drdal) had created a blog post instead, would that have made a difference?!

- mcguire 13y agoWrong question. If the OP had written an AskHN saying how happy he was with the service, would that have made a difference. Can't really have a yes for one and a no for the other, in that case.
- minimaxir 13y agoA how happy he was with the service post would read more like spam than a call for discussion.
- frogpelt 13y agoSomething like this: Ask HN: Should I be really excited about how awesome drchrono is? They have treated me with dignity and class since I signed up. This is in addition to saving me hours per day and thousands of dollars on each transaction. What do you think, HN?
- byoung2 13y agoAs we say in the guidelines, http://ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html http://ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html HN is a news site, not a forum for people with praise for companies we've funded (even when concealed as Ask HNs). So I'm killing this. If you have praise for Dr Chrono, please contact them directly

- captainmuon 13y agoYeah, this is what makes it kinda silly. If he can post it via a proxy blog post, he should be able to post it directly. If someone else blogs about the closure of the thread, and posting that is allowed, then the original complaint should be allowed. * I'm a firm believer in "if it is allowed while jumping through hoops, either allow it altogether, or ban it altogether". (* Same thing about choosing descriptive titles for posts btw.. If posting a proxy blog post with a comment is ok, then posting directly should be ok, too)
- joezydeco 13y agoAs we all learned with the Coinbase issues last year, yes this would have made a difference. It's better to link to a blog post and bring the thread here after.
