No - why participate in a forum if you fundamentally disagree with the way it's run.

There's plenty of places online to do whatever you want, people like it here because we at least sort of try to follow some rules to encourage a fragile thing (informed debate).

Like I said, happy to look at data about this, but not random stray stories.



Thanks for using italics to drive home how much you value data. Unfortunately, this is is a discussion forum, thankfully not a citation-fest, so some people will give opinions, some will refer to other sites, etc. Everyone doesn't have to agree.

Hard to follow what you're saying. I'm sorry if the italics made it hard for you actually read the content, but what are you trying to say?

To restate my point: I agree that not everyone will agree on content, but there are rules of engagement, and if you don't want to follow them, you should try to engage somewhere else (I'm guessing you don't get the results you want elsewhere?).

In case you're not familiar with said rules: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

The forum is useful because of its users in spite of how it's run. Just like reddit.
