I was being facetious. But in my defense, if it turns out that religion is false, then religion really is a prime example of Firehose of Falsehood.
But I suppose it’s a protected class of firehose.
Anyway, @dang while I have you here, can you please unblock me from submitting posts? It’s been months since I could post anything other than an ASK HN.
- dang 5y ago"Facetious" is neither here nor there when it comes to flamebait, which your GP comment plainly was. Your account isn't blocked from submitting posts. Your account is rate-limited (because of a pattern of posting unsubstantive and/or flamebait comments), and the rate limit doesn't distinguish between submissions and comments, so that's what you were probably running into.
- dqpb 5y ago> the rate limit doesn't distinguish between submissions and comments I'm not running into rate limits on comments, or submissions without links. I'm only running into rate limits on submissions with links.
- dang 5y agoThat's a coincidence. If you had tried to post a comment at that moment instead, you'd have gotten the same message.
