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 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?
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.
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".
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.
Stop with the pointless comments.
