When I first got here, people were complaining about the new guys. I only seem "old"-ish because I joined to make a comment like 3 (edit: actually 4, crikey) years ago and then didn't come back until this year.

My problem is not the new guy. It's that he says he found non-HN readers and, in so many words, said "fill up their page with stuff".

He didn't say "join HN and hang around for a while".

He said: "Get your page on the top of HN".

Those aren't the same things.

Fair enough, I see what you are saying. Sorry for the rant, it's early and the coffee is still settling in. =)


Perfectly understandable. In text I frequently convey an air of breathtaking arrogance (in person only occasionally so).
