Hi. I don't think you were actually censored. I can see all of your killed submissions, and so can anyone else that's interested. It's an option in the preferences.
Basically, news.yc is not a random social news site where anything goes. There is a well-defined area that the users of the site are interested in. Your submissions weren't about that, so there aren't people around that are interested in adding good comments.
Anyway, I've read four or five articles today, and three of them have been you bitching about the site. This is somewhat annoying, and I think everyone would appreciate it if you lurked for a while before submitting anything else. Nobody hates you or wants you to go away -- they just want to keep the site useful, unlike Reddit and Digg. Please try to understand.
If you find yourself clashing with the majority on topics and tone, then your best bet would be to find or make a different community, one more palatable to your tastes.
People don't always agree with me either, but I like that because it encourages me to write better and think more analytically. Possibly the least popular thing to do is complain.
Really? So you have blinkers on when it comes to new ideas? Like, tell Edison to go somewhere else - somewhere they go to bed early and get up early 'cos that is what the sun does?
Actually, I like the 'tone' aspect of your argument. Can I steal it?
How'd you not understand that reference? It's Hacker News. Meaning hacker-related news. Meaning don't bring other nonsense to this site. Why are you surprised that people only want to talk about hacker-related news?
