I won’t get into an argument about this, especially since we both already argued lots about certain issues which I don’t want to get into here(in fact I am not even allowed according to some LWers who have taken the role of judges) and LW has many smart people who could argue as effectively for either side if they wished to do so. I wrote my comment based on personal experience on this site, and I’ve been a member here since the days when it was still overcomingbias.com.
You see here is my point, someone writes a comment expressing a certain sentiment or POV, and you can start arguing over it or consider that “maybe he has a point and we should give some consideration to this issue.”
Btw, I don’t know what is going on but this is my first comment of the day and as soon as I try to post it I get the message “You are trying to submit too fast. try again in 5 minutes.” The same happens every time I try to comment. Is this some kind of filter? Please turn it off.
I think there’s a filter that depends of karma, so that heavily downvoted posters have to slow down their posting rate, but since you have positive karma I’m not sure why it’s triggering for you. Maybe there’s a bug, dunno.
If it hasn’t stopped giving you that message, try different combinations of browser, computer, and throwaway account. If it’s a bug, one of the former should help. If it’s a filter, which sounds unlikely given your karma and the message text, that won’t help but you should be able to post through a throwaway account without getting the message.
