@dang is far and away the best community manager / moderator I've personally seen or interacted with on the internet. Nothing is ever black and white, but he makes managing that look easy. Huge respect.

Dang is great!

Btw, Scott Alexander also does a pretty good job.

I wish. But thanks!

My list of "greatest all time community-runners" is pretty short, and I'm having a hard time thinking of anyone I'd put ahead of you.

As an ultimate service to newsboards all over, dang should consider writing a book at some point distilling all his thoughts, practices, advice, lessons learnt.

+1

nah its true, this is one of the few places left on the web thats friendly and thoughtful (most of the time at least). That is directly related to your work keeping things civil. thank you

Yes, thank you @dang. HN wouldn't be HN without you.

Echo this!

Somewhere in the multiverse a universe exists with HN died a horrible death because Dang made alternative life choices.

Hell yeah !
