can some mod do something about this user "dang"? he seems to crapflood every discussion I try to read with these stupid judgemental comments and never contributes to the discussions, doesn't hacker news employ moderators of any sort? I know I'm a new user and don't have enough "karma" or whatever to downvote but this guy is one of the most irritating and useless commenters I've ever seen, and that comes from someone who has used reddit and slashdot for quite a bit.

I'm one of the moderators here (and currently the only one who posts publicly as a mod). Sorry that wasn't clear.

If it helps at all, the comments you're complaining about are even more tedious to write than they are to read.

not sure if that's some in-joke copy-pasta, but dang IS a mod, here.
