Ask HN: Do we no longer support our members?

Re:Ask HN: Do we no longer support our members? by chimingin on Sunday October 17, 2010 @08:10PM (#1801826)

why does this comment get hammered??

with the implosion of Digg, there has been an influx of users from digg to reddit and here, and surely from reddit to here.

trolls roll downhill, so to speak.

so why when a user asks what's going on with HN, the comment gets hammered? or is it the trolls doing the hammering.

I made a similar comment recently and it got just as quickly crushed.

something is awry at HN and some of us care. surely, the growth is good and there will be all types but shooting the messenger only proves the negative point.

I'm guessing it was downvoted because the comment didn't have much substance and didn't further the discussion.

You forgot to add:

"and not because it appears incendiary to suggest that the HN community may be changing for the worse."

That'd make for a convincing argument.
