Keeping the signal to noise ratio decent and preventing spamming are useful. This also helps make sure that people have some minimal familiarity with LW terminology and norms when they express ideas, so that the idea will be well-expressed and won’t be redundant with statements already here. In particular, in this context, the point is somewhat redundant in the coherent parts and not fully coherent in some parts (the comment about “honesty” doesn’t parse in a coherent fashion). Incidentally, there are studies which back up the general idea that wishing for things is a bad approach. Richard Wiseman cites a few of them in his excellent book “59 Seconds” where he discusses at one point the literature that shows that trying to imagine oneself as healthier, stronger, etc. makes people actually less inclined to engage in diet and exercise.
This is absolutely true. I clicked the report button because your logic is beautiful to my ears and that should be known. Now if they question why I clicked the report button, they will know. Beautiful logic in my eyes would be seen as simple because simple is easier to understand. I decided a new approach because I believe in innovation. I did state in my post that I do believe that wishing is less efficient than doing. That is not to say that wishing is not efficient however. It holds efficiency in the regards that I do what I wish.
When I made the comment about honesty and the fact that I believe myself to be honest, I was making an attempt at making the statement an obvious opinion but not stated in a necessarily obvious fashion. I respect you thinker. The world needs people like you.
When viewed from the inbox, a comment should have [Context] and [Report] buttons in the bottom left- or at least it does for me. I don’t know how to get that for comments that aren’t direct replies to you, though.
Now please just ban me. I wish to not be a part of this close-minded society. Close-minded is a negative mentality. I’m perfectly happy without negativity.
Also, to make your statement true, responder, instead say, ” It would also be helpful if you did not write like a schizophrenic to people who think like me.” The connection = ” It would be helpful to people who think like me.”
I say this because what you stated we call an opinion. You did not however, state a fact. You’ve also just been spoon-fed logic. Logic that anyone can understand.
This message is intended for “normal top-level readers” so why am I not enabled from the beginning, the opportunity to make a “normal top-level post?”

I have removed the report you made on the grandparent comment. That’s not what the button is for; it’s there to draw moderator attention to spam.
Where is the report button? I don’t see it on my screen.

I’m not sure. I think the reason I don’t see it is because I have a ban button instead, though.
It would also be helpful if you did not write like a schizophrenic.
Apparently you don’t understand schizophrenia. Logic is sane.
