I'm not the most experienced HN user but so far people have been quite rude to me around here even though YCs immense efforts to keep a positive vibe.<p>Of course HN is like fifty times nicer than reddit, etc. but you get the idea. Does anyone share my experience? If so, why do you think that is?
Note that OP is posting this in response to someone calling out sockpuppet accounts on their submission: <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11483510" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11483510</a><p>Which is against HN rules.
If your idea has holes, HN will tell you, quite bluntly. Don't confuse that with rudeness.<p>Unfortunately, there also are people who <i>are</i> rude. They are in the minority, but they seem to be more numerous than they were a year ago...
