Hey, that reminds me. I use HN every day, but I still don't have an handle on when the arrows appear and don't and when I can edit and can't.
Is there some page somewhere that actually outlines the rules, or do I have to read the code?
I keep waiting to get the ability to downvote. Every 50 karma I get I think, "maybe I can downvote now", but it never happens.
>= 251, last time I checked.
500 actually. I got it a little while ago. That's comments only.
Other fun comes at >1000.

That's because you can't remember the lack of features for noobs :)
Downvoting, flagging, changing colors, etc.

Huh. Yeah, it's been awhile.
Way to make me feel old. :)

You have to read the code. What do you think this is, Reddit? ;-)
(with tongue firmly in cheek, etc. etc.)
Seriously, it's working, it's great to have, and I would be completely bummed if they pulled their own "Digg v4" at broke a perfectly working system.
Sure, infrastructure can get better, or maybe small improvements as you see happen on HN like with voting, points, etc, but otherwise, just let it ride.
