heh, you wannabe entrepreneurs make me giggle. Down modding is so slashdot.

You really think that converting a new comers opinion into negative numbers helps your community of self perpetuating bullshit prosper?

I guess you have not read the mantra around here, according to PG and I am paraphrasing here so forgive me if I don't do it justice. He does not want it to prosper beyond it's core focus. My understanding is that he is not interested in creating the next Slashdot or Reddit. As a former Slashdotter with a extremely low user id, I understand why, I witnessed it happening over time. With that prosperity comes a watered down environment where memes, on liners and +5 funny's, and flaming trolls such as yourself are the rage. It kills the brand and drives people like myself away. I lurked here for a long time before deciding to join, and the reason I finally did was the fact that there is a concerted effort to keep HN from becoming Slashdot.

am I too late? kw.ww.com => www.kaliware.com
