How Should We Treat Each Other Here?
colinplamondon: I think the mindset behind the comment is a good one- in general, joking one liners are discouraged on the site.Personally, I find most of the ones posted here hilarious- however, they're also usually downvoted into the basement. That discourages people from posting more, which encourages a more serious discussion. People still post jokes, but the downvoting discourages joke threads and a more reddit like atmosphere. This duality manages to maintain awesome and funny comments while discourages them from being rampant.It's a good mix.
