Fair enough, thanks John. For what it's worth - I don't have a voting ring of 40/50 people (that I'm aware of :-) ) I don't think the post would have been flagged. I can't control people voting by direct link, as another commenter alluded

44 points in the space of about 20 minutes should be front page material (going by my experience of reading HN). But regardless, it should slide down , not literally drop on a refresh from #2 to #87.

I do. I'm not alone either. This is an amazing company, making amazing progress in a field that deeply affects all web companies, from start-ups to multi-nationals. It's a joy to watch them succeed.

Interesting point. We do that in a few places, e.g. if a customer starts a conversation and a user replies. Small change though (says the guy who doesn't have to make it :-) ) We'll take a look.
