I'm a moderator here; sorry that wasn't clear. It's true that moderation comments are off topic, but we don't know a better way to manage this site.

In case you're not aware, the site guidelines underlying HN moderation are at https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html. It's good to review them periodically.

You should identify yourself if you're going to act in the role of a moderator. I think my comment still stands tho: why do you choose to moderate my comment with a swipe but not the original parent comment?
