Please. This is HN, and you know it. Your account was registerd over 2,000 days ago.

Stop with the pointless comments.

What on earth is happening to HN?
Re:Show HN: Dogecoin Average - the price of Doge by jquery on Wednesday January 22, 2014 @01:57PM (#7104577)
I'm with you. Every dogecoin related thread is full of content-free comments like "such X" and "wow". I do my part to down vote all of them. It's about as funny and clever as a rick-roll at this point.

And I do my part and wish them away really hard because I cannot downvote.

Get over yourself. Such mad.
Re:Show HN: Dogecoin Average - the price of Doge by GigabyteCoin on Wednesday January 22, 2014 @02:09PM (#7104651)
I am not upset. I am horrendously disappointed.

I suppose Bitcoiners had a similiar disrespect for HN when they came flooding in ~3 years ago, too.

Perhaps, but I'm not convinced. I imagine the fact that Dogecoin is based around a meme has a lot to do with it.

Just imagine how much more time could be devoted to discussion about how many iPhones does the founder of Path really have.

And yet every day HN is filled with people talking about the things that they like to talk about, and having a nice time doing so, all in their own little space here on this site. For the most part, users like to keep this place intelligent and spam-free.

Want to spam Doge-related comments? I can only imagine that that is what /r/Dogecoin is for. Why bring it here?

Re:Show HN: Dogecoin Average - the price of Doge by adamnemecek on Thursday January 23, 2014 @01:15AM (#7107180)
Right, but what if people want to talk about doge?
Re:Show HN: Dogecoin Average - the price of Doge by BlackDeath3 on Thursday January 23, 2014 @11:51AM (#7109281)
Then talk about Doge. Don't spam "so wow!" sixteen-dozen times.
Re:Show HN: Dogecoin Average - the price of Doge by adamnemecek on Thursday January 23, 2014 @01:39PM (#7110125)
That's a large part of talking about doge though.
Re:Show HN: Dogecoin Average - the price of Doge by BlackDeath3 on Thursday January 23, 2014 @01:43PM (#7110161)
Then I don't really know what to tell you. It sounds to me like "talking about Doge" is a euphemism for "spamming".
Re:Show HN: Dogecoin Average - the price of Doge by adamnemecek on Thursday January 23, 2014 @02:06PM (#7110363)

        wow

    much disagreement


            many opinions


      wow

My comment does technically have correct grammar and stand on its own as a valid criticism of your comment, which to me is what makes it especially funny. Everybody posting "wow" as a response to you... not so much.
Re:Show HN: Dogecoin Average - the price of Doge by GigabyteCoin on Wednesday January 22, 2014 @04:45PM (#7105578)
First off: deleted_account is not my username, you were not responding to my comment.

Second: The sentence "I am." technically has correct grammar, but doesn't serve the benefit of anybody reading HN. As does this recently similar comment with many downvotes: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7104994

You should have just hit the downvote or flag button if you thought that OPs comment was truly cynical.

How exactly was deleted_account being cynical anyways by asking the question "Can we officially declare that crypto-currencies have jumped the shark?"?

I do not think you understand the meaning of the word "cynicism" or what it is "to be cynical".

"You should have just hit the downvote"...pot, meet kettle.
Re:Show HN: Dogecoin Average - the price of Doge by GigabyteCoin on Thursday January 23, 2014 @01:27PM (#7110028)
One cannot hit the downvote button on replies made to one's own comments.
Re:Show HN: Dogecoin Average - the price of Doge by DennisP on Thursday January 23, 2014 @05:20PM (#7111731)
True, good point. Still, I'm not sure it's a net benefit to kick off a sizable subtree debating the merits of a two-word comment. It might be considered an investment in future comment quality, but downvoting all the meme comments that we are able to is probably as effective.

Personally, as long as it's restricted to articles about dogecoin I don't find it annoying, though I wouldn't want it to spread. Clearly your mileage varies.
