Existing active discussion unfolding: Had a call with Reddit to discuss pricing. Bad news for third-party apps https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36141083 (152 comments)

Somehow this is no longer on the frontpage ..

It set off the flamewar detector. Surprising as that may be for a reddit thread!

I'll turn that off and merge the threads momentarily.

@dang I refresh HN way too often and didn't even see this - 240 points, 152 comments, and it's on page 3 in position 81. What's up/can we merge all these threads? Edit: in particular asking because it's not visibly flagged

I'll merge the threads but in the future if you want to get this information to us please use hn@ycombinator.com. "@dang" is a no-op and I only saw your comment by accident.

Literally saw that post and it was gone seconds later. Kind of suspicious considering Reddit was a YC company.

Such suspicions will be evergreen (everblack?) for as long as HN exists but no, we don't moderate HN that way. Lots of past explanation here: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu....

I know it's no fun, but please try to remember that the overwhelming majority of the time, the explanations for these things are really boring and standard. In this case the thread set off the flamewar detector.

The “active” page has all the juicy stuff - https://news.ycombinator.com/active

  Juan was taught from out the best edition,
       Expurgated by learnéd men, who place
  Judiciously, from out the schoolboy's vision,
       The grosser parts; but, fearful to deface
  Too much their modest bard by this omission,
       And pitying sore his mutilated case,
  They only add them all in an appendix,
  Which saves, in fact, the trouble of an index.

It set off the flamewar detector a.k.a. the overheated discussion detector. Surprising as that may be for a reddit thread.

I get to repeat my joke since if the earlier explanation wasn't seen, the joke wasn't seen either.

Haha, and I appreciate you did.

TIL. I see so much "@dang" in HN threads I assumed it actually did something.
