One thing I like on reddit _is_ the arbitrarily long title names, because it is easier to come up with a good long title than a short title.

Regardless, you can get around the 100 character limit on news.yc by editing the title after you submit.

You should have to enter an explanation when you downmod something. Then the recipients won't be left confused, and it will enforce responsible use of the privilege. I feel this is a better solution to the abuse problem than only allowing downmods for 24 hours.

Vote down for any user, because it more useful to vote down, and for ranking it does not matter how a link count is reached, by voting down or up.

Use black text color for author comment text, the current gray is hard to read.
