Tell HN: You guys are beating back the crap

5 points by coderdude ↗ HN
In the last 24 hours, I've seen at least two ridiculous threads of speech get killed faster than I can even rant about it. I think you've got this now. The bullshit isn't taking hold like I thought. I'm starting to really want to rep HN again, and join in. I doubt this is necessary to say, but I'm stoked.

Can you explain a little better?

Maybe your point is valid, but I completely miss what you are talking about.

Without an explanation your point comes across just as a noisy random rant... Maybe you are right, but as long as I can't understand what you are saying you are wasting time (yours and mine...)

I agree. Read the comment 3 times and can't tell if it describes something positive or negative.
It probably does come off as a random rant unless you read all the comment threads on here. Lately, a lot of the nonsense opinions are finally being killed instead of being upvoted to the top. My random post was my way of saying, thank God. Just proud of the community.
I don't know the context but if these opinions are being upvoted don't they have a bit of value? Or at least they should be analysed on why people hold that opinion.
please explain what a "thread of speech" is? which issue does this relate to?
