Palantir shareholders want to know when they'll get their money back

Flags are disabled after a user exhibits a continuing pattern of flagging items for reasons other than guidelines breaches; most commonly for political reasons. That's not “frivolous”, but it is most certainly a mis-use of the flag feature.

There are cases where an exception to the “If you flag, please don't also comment that you did” rule is warranted, but it needs to carry the substance and energy of an earnest, helpful contribution to the discussion. The comment I replied to seemed much more snarky than earnest.

I think it's a fairly solid rule of thumb that almost any comment made earnestly will be okay here.
