>and you have an issue with it

You don't see a problem with a section of posters with good karma flagging posts like this?

Edit: I do think a better parallel is Digg's bury brigades.

I hope this doesn't come across as pretentious, because I don't mean it that way.

But honestly, I don't take Hacker News seriously enough for it to bother me. I use it to build connections in the community, keep up to date on tech and news matters, and post things from time to time.

It's not as though I need my posts to hit the front page. I post intellectual curiosities and some of my more interesting blog posts around the internet, but I couldn't care less if a small but powerful "1%" holds voting power on Hacker News.
