You've been breaking the site guidelines repeatedly, using multiple accounts. I've banned two of them. If you don't want your main account to be banned, please stop abusing the site like this.

This has nothing to do with your particular opinions; we don't know, or care, what those are. We ban accounts that repeatedly post flamebait comments regardless of what they're flaming for or against. No more of that, please.

I am not using multiple accounts, I don't know why you think I am. Calling out awful comments is not flame bait, it's calling out flame bait.


Apologies if I guessed wrong about multiple accounts.

"Calling out" is almost always flamebait in its own right. We're specifically trying to avoid the online callout/shaming culture here.

It's pretty clear that the comments on this forum have gotten worse over the years, and I really really doubt banning people from calling that out is going to solve the problem.


People have been saying that since before HN was called HN.

If you care about comment quality, you should stop posting low-quality comments. Posting the way you've been doing obviously just degrades things further.
