Could you please not sermonize or act like a demanding customer? We don't, and can't ever, see everything that's posted here, and even if we could it's not appropriate for moderators to adjudicate on the correctness of any claim. It’s by cultivating discussions between different people with different perspectives that we illuminate topics here. Obviously you have deep expertise on those topic. Great! Please educate people rather than berating them.
This is only a place anyone wants to participate on because we have guidelines and others make the effort to observe them. You've been here long enough to know that. Please don't trash what you seem to have found value in for so long. We don't need you to be "effusively pleasant" or erudite, just respectful.
We've banned this account. Posting repetitive, snarky, low-substance comments like this is clearly against the guidelines. If you don't want to be banned, you can email us (hn@ycombinator.com) and commit to observing the guidelines in future. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
We've banned the account for using HN to pursue a narrow political agenda. HN's purpose is to gratify intellectual curiosity, and the site can only work if submitters post a variety of articles about different topics, rather than posting articles about the same topic repeatedly.
Please stop. Dang has asked you to stop targeting individual users like this, and now I'm asking. It's ugly conduct, and it doesn't even achieve the outcome you want. Indeed it's most likely to achieve the opposite; fixating on individuals only gives them more energy and resolve. If you see a wrong title on a submission, or a pattern of abusive conduct, please email us (hn@ycombinator.com).
