Fair enough. But I can still post comments?

  Banned accounts can still post comments, but their comments are killed by default - that is, they're marked as [dead] and only users with 'showdead' turned on in their profile can see them. If enough users vouch for a [dead] post, it gets restored. But why not read the site guidelines and take the intended spirit of this site to heart instead? We're happy to unban accounts when people give us reason to believe that they'll follow the rules in the future. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

    Hey dang, thank you for the comment and the explanations. I'm obviously overreacted, I'll try to avoid comments like that in the future.

      Ok, I've unbanned your account. Please stick to the guidelines in the future and all should be fine :)
