HN: Please Ban Partial Posts

3 points

Its has become a daily occurrence that posts aren't readable beyond the first two paragraphs, mostly due to JS & login requirements. I've been going along with "well its not that interesting", but just now i got two in a row.

I don't really see the use of visiting if this becomes the norm, and I imagine I'm not alone.

I think HN specifically has a valuable audience, so the admins here can actually make a difference by holding content hosters to some standard.
