I realize that and regret posting it now with all these replies that have nothing to do with BD robots. :-(

Thanks for the explanation and I can see why this whole complaining bit gets old and chewed upon over years. I've personally not stumbled upon anyone that complains about HN turning into Reddit.

Also, I feel out of place because I don't own this forum, don't have a stake in HN moderation and its workings. I don't think I have the right to complain in the first place.

Just felt like saying at the time and it felt right. Appreciate your thoughts and clarification.
