Thanks for sharing this, otherwise I may never know tge meanings of the terms on HN. I hope there was a guide.

Meanwhile I saw a dead post 0 minutes ago, is is true that someone flagged it immediately? I personally don't find the post evil but only little boring.

If they've been flag killed, it will say [flagged][dead] (and yes I've seen it happen within a minute of someone commenting on very popular threads). If it's just [dead], you should look at their comment history because chances are they've been banned by dang. Alternatively, some people register on HN via Tor which also auto-shadowbans them until enough people vouch for their comments.

Thx for the explanation. It was just [dead]. And it's an Show HN post and is the only post from a new user. I guess Tor was the reason.
