“iwantmyname”, from leafo’s post here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42364033


I find it curious that this (purely factual and correct) comment got downvoted/flagged into oblivion.


Now that it’s morning, I realize that the comment I was replying to wasn’t asking about itch.io’s registrar, but was actually a reply to a post by sureglymop.

Basically I didn’t notice the very slight indentation on my phone. Whoops.

I don’t know who sureglymop‘s registrar is. I’d encourage them to name and shame, refusing to refund is unacceptable.


How would you know whether Modified3019’s comment is factual and correct? sureglymop wrote “note: this was a different registrar than mentioned here”, and they haven’t written any other comments in the thread that might identify the registrar.


> How would you know whether Modified3019’s comment is factual and correct?

By following the reference they provided, which is to a post by the person running itch.io stating just that.

I don't know if the linked comment is actually correct, but the link to a comment plus quoteof the relevant part seems as factual as it gets.


Update: Turns out GP simply replied to the wrong thread, so it was just a typical case of "downvoting takes less effort than pointing out a mistake", I suppose.
