I posted it, I'm aware of the rules about titles, but honestly I thought my title was way more clear about what the story was. In retrospect I should have called it "Tell HN: YC is asking for a bailout", think that would have been fair. The fact that it's been edited here is not cool with me, especially as the story is unfavorable to YC (though I certainly believe readers are smart enough to draw their own conclusions)
I think it was maybe the fastest rising post I’ve ever seen.
That was solely because of the title.
And now it's flagged.
It was changed to "Urgent: Sign the petition now".
the archive.is 1st snapshot saved it for posterity
Old title was better
Which may be the most click-baity post-edit title I've ever seen on HN.
Not a good look when there is a conflict of interest here.
