Few days ago I wrote a comment praising HN community (http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8159956) but unfortunately now I have to make the opposite:

This comments page shows us the dark side of HN community.

There are comments here that completely depressed me and revealed not an introverted but an anti-social personality among some HN users. I am/was also anti-social but I make/made some effort to get out from there. I'm not judging anyone but this side of HN is not a bright one.

edit: I knew that I would be downvoted but I consider that I'm doing the right thing speaking about this.

The actual article describes some of the reasons why. The comments reflect that yes, the article does describe the actions. I suggest that it is not "a dark side" of the HN community - rather a frank discussion about life, the good and the bad.
