My account is more than a year old, and after viewing the submitted link I have to agree with his assessment. Frankly, those guidelines were written years before HN actually did turn into Reddit. In any case, in lieu of casca's seniority, please accept mine as a waiver for that particular anachronistic guideline.

Reddit is..Reddit. I used to think Reddit was dumb and I started going deeper, and quite frankly Reddit scares the shit out of me sometimes. The occasional meme is funny but HN isn't near what Reddit is.

Just some of the deep/dark/scary/nasty stuff that gets thrown around. Haha.

That’s fair. Still, I don’t think the occasional low-quality link means HN is transmogrifying into Reddit, or otherwise declining.

A year or two ago, this would have been flagged to death by now.
