Voting this post down.
Because it contributes nothing substantive to the site; we're aware of the problem of grounding actions, and this doesn't help solve it.
ETA: On reflection, I made this point way too harshly, in an attempt to be cute. Sorry about that.
ETA2: Someone seems to be modding down everyone who's replied to this. Just so you know, it's not me. I don't vote on comments in arguments I'm directly involved in, and I've made a big deal about adhering to this in the past.
I agree that the post has little substantive content, but it may generate some interesting discussion even while sitting at 0.
You could fault it for timing - the flood of former lurkers who saying Hi, sometimes with interesting commentary, is already too much to keep up with - but I'd rather downvote an overly long post than a short one. Less of a strain on my attention economy.
Perhaps, but that would better justify making it an open thread comment.
