The best course of action is to email the mods via the Contact link in the footer. The guidelines are clear on this as well: > "Please don't impute astroturfing or shillage. It degrades discussion and is usually mistaken. If you're worried about it, email us and we'll look at the data." > "Please don't complain that a submission is inappropriate. If a story is spam or off-topic, flag it. ... If you flag something, please don't also comment that you did." https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
