We do not agree and we have had heated conversations at multiple occasions. Your original post pre-edit had self-censored profanity. Your desire to not receive replies from a specific user seems entirely hostile to the HN guidelines and its assumption of continually exercising good faith, especially if you feel that replies to you lack it. If you have a problem with a user, notify HN mods directly. I don't see how you expect others to keep track of when you decree that they aren't worthy of your replies, or why you would subject the rest of HN to the degradation of public debate that such a block feature would result in on HN, but respectful replies should be the norm and the goal all the same in either case. If you don't want to engage someone in conversation or debate, then don't reply to them. To seek to preemptively forestall debate before it even begins via blocking a two-way dialogue is contrary to entering into such debate by making your own first post to begin with. If the only winning move is not to play, why insist on having the first and/or last move/word? |
