Classic counts the votes of only the users who have been with HN for > 1 year.

How did you know about this? I seemed to have missed the boat on this one.

I searched searchyc.com for about 10 - 15 minutes to give a link to the post where pg mentioned that he created "classic" view and that classic and regular are not much different - which means growth hasn't harmed us much. Sorry I couldn't find it. (Usually I'll obsess over it until I do find - but I have to change this habit)

edit: How often does Google reply with the answer when you comment that you can't find something using their site? Now that's service right there...

There was a post on Hacker News quite a while back about it. I wish there were another option for members over 2 years too so that "classic" remains "classic".

Or perhaps a user-settable cutoff date for a customizable classic view.
