You wrote something provocative but provided no arguments or explanations or examples or anything. That’s why it’s low-quality. It doesn’t matter how good your idea is if you don’t bother to do any legwork to show anyone else. I for one have no why your idea would and don’t care to do work to figure it out because the only reason I have to do work is that you said so.
Also, you might want to tackle something more concrete than “all these difficult observations and problems”. First, it’s definitely true that your ‘solution’ doesn’t solve all the problems. Maybe it helps with some. So which ones? Talk about those.
Also, your writing is exhaustingly vague (“I also value compression and time in this sense, and so I think I can propose a subject that might serve as an “ideal introduction” (I have an accurate meaning for this phrase I won’t introduce atm).”). This is really hard not to lose interest in while reading, and it’s only two random sample sentences.
Re http://lesswrong.com/lw/ogt/do_we_share_a_definition_for_the_word_ideal/,
you’re going to have to do more work to make an interesting discussion. It’s not like “Oh, Flinter, good point, you and (all of us) might have different meanings for ‘ideal’!” is going to happen. It’s on you to show why this is interesting. What made you think the meanings are different? What different results come from that? What’s your definition? What do you think other peoples’ are, and why are they worse?
I agree with Vaniver that those two posts in their current form should have been at least heavily downvoted. Though that doesn’t happen much in practice here since traffic is low. I’m not sure what the removal policy is but I guess it probably applied.
Also, if you keep writing things like “No, you can’t give me feedback. It’s above you. I have come here to explain it to you. I made 3 threads, and they are equally important.” you’re going to be banned for being an ass, no question. You’re also wildly incorrect, but that’s another matter.
