I am of the mind that Mods can also prevent submissions from an account from ever being displayed in the page rankings.
Many months ago, I had several submissions that were visible when I was logged in, and yet when I accessed HN as a guest, they were not in the submission ranking.
- epimetheus 10y agoMy comments were like this, and found out I had been shadowbanned. I talked to a Mod, and they told me my shadowban was reversed, but I still don't get any responses from my comments and rarely see them as a guest. Is it possible you have a shadowbanned? I have my settings turned on so I see dead comments (not sure if that's the same thing or not) Edit: this comment is not showing up when not logged in either, so guess my shadowban was not reversed or something else is going on.
- DanBC 10y agoThat's something that happens. It's always worth talking to the mods to sort that out. There's a bunch of stuff to detect vote rings, spam, etc etc and sometimes it unfairly blocks the wrong stuff. From what I've seen mods are happy to fix any problems.
