Thank you. Maybe you can remove my slow-ban, and we'll call it even: HN often tells me I am posting too fast, which makes me think my account was flagged at some point.

That is a separate question, and it would be better sent to hn@ycombinator.com (this is in https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html btw). But since you asked here, I'll respond here:

We rate limit accounts when they post too many low-quality comments and/or get involved in flamewars. I'd be happy to take the rate limit off your account, but when I look at your recent comments, I still see too many that match that description:

>>43086219

>>43073768

>>42528111

>>42301901

>>42242363

If you want to build up a track record of using HN as intended for a while, you'd be welcome to email hn@ycombinator.com and we can take a look and hopefully take the rate limit off your account.

I see. I guess succinctness is punished here. I guess I'll use AI to puff up my comments in the future. Thanks!

For reference, the GGGP comment was generated using this prompt:

    turn this small reply into an extremely verbose, very long 
    comment: Outside of my accusation. Does HN have any 
    guidelines on using chatgpt comments?

Succinctness isn't the issue.
