While you are there, go through dang’s comments timeline https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=dang

Moderating something like HN is a very hard job. Gratitude .

I understand why but I don’t like how people are individually rate limited silently without their knowledge. It is certainly immoral

EDIT: unfortunately I cannot defend my point in the comments, as I am now rate limited :)

EDIT 2: /u/Dylan16807 yes I'm seeing that. When I try and post it says "you are posting too quickly, please slow down"

When I was rate-limited, I found it quite easy to find out what happened after a little bit of googling and get it reversed with a nicely worded email. It doesn't take a genius to figure out why you can't really post after a reply from dang.

Nonetheless, I agree they could be a bit more explicit about this.

Well actually it does because you're wrong about this, it isn't about him replying to you, he manually sets a flag on your account.

Right, but in my experience, this usually occurs after a reply.
