As I've said for a long time, I don't mind moderation, I just want to be in charge of what I see. Give me the tools that the moderators have, let me be able to filter out bots at some confidence level; let me see "removed" posts, banned accounts; don't mess with my searches unless I've asked for that explicitly.

Power to the people.

This is what HN does with "showdead".

You can't reply to dead comments, effectively killing the conversation, so no, it's not the same thing.

That's what the vouch link on the comment page is for.

Vouching for a comment makes it visible for everyone else. That means that dang reviews whether the comment breaks the rules and if it does he'll take away your ability to vouch in the future. Therefore, vouching is not a way to continue commenting on a sub-thread that breaks the rules.

There's "breaking the rules" and then there's "breaking the rules according to a certain interpretation" and then there's "I don't like what he said, so I'm going to interpret the rules in a way that justifies removing his post".

It all comes down to some guy telling me how to talk. I don't like it. Anybody who likes it has rocks in his head.

Your free to create your own site and talk on it however you like.

What you want is someone else's audience, and I'm not exactly sure what makes you think you have the right to that?
