- dang 8y agoThe comment was in fact heavily upvoted. It takes time for the vote totals on a comment to work themselves out. I'm personally responsible for HN and can tell you that "keeping Saudi Arabia happy" has never entered my awareness until you brought it up. We just banned your throwaway account for trolling. If you continue to use HN for flamewars, trolling, or personal attacks, we will ban your main account as well. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

- dang 8y agoI assumed that https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=thatoneyouthrow https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=thatoneyouthrow was you because the comments were so similar. If it wasn't you, that was my mistake and I'm sorry. The main point, though, is please don't do any more flamewar, trolling, or flamebait on HN.
