RE: Discontinuing my daily statistics posts

in #stats8 years ago

I feel like these series of downvotes from Ned deserved a comment at least as an explanation to MasterYoda. If we're going to suddenly start downvoting to try to force someone to change their behavior, it deserves at least an explanation.... Otherwise, how will we know exactly what someone is disapproving of and he we can personally improve? Just my 2 cents.

Agree with you. Whenever I flag anything, I always leave an explanation. I guess @ned does not subscribe to that philosophy.

The idea that in an autonomous, decentralized, and distributed network, there are a group of you who leave comments like the one above is troubling. While I get we are not all equal here, the fact that some act like gods, even if they are the creators does not exactly engender confidence in the future of this endeavor.

So, you feel an explanation makes this okay? Either this is a anarchical prototype for economies, or an oligarchy.

I said this action deserves an explanation, especially since it comes from the top. I did not say it is justified by an explanation.

Good, and I agree, it deserves an explanation, what it ought to get is an apology and immediate withdrawal of the downvote bot.
