Congrats Dang, you have done a wonderful job so far and moderate one of the most fantastic online communities out there. I am sure most of the job feels somewhat thankless but I want to let you know I(and many many other users on this site) appreciate your hard work and dedication.

If by “finest” you mean a Reddit mob mentality for tech, then yes I completely agree with this statement.

I disagree with this completely. I've been spanked a couple times by dang and it was warranted both times. And although I felt I was correct in what I posted, the tone wasn't right for this place, hence the warnings. That sort of thing is precisely why HN hasn't become Reddit-like.
