Well, it does seem they're actually shadowbanned, since https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=syracuse850330 https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=syracuse850330 yields 0 results, and there is at least one comment from them in this thread.
There is a real threat to posters' health in the original message. I've mailed news@ycombinator.com to get some idea about the IP/locale of the poster, but this really seems serious...
- Jtsummers 4y agoThere are no comments from them in this thread, unless they deleted it. They have two submissions, though, listed here: https://news.ycombinator.com/submitted?id=syracuse850330 https://news.ycombinator.com/submitted?id=syracuse850330 One is this one, and the other is the [dead] one they mentioned. It's not marked as [dupe][dead] or [flagged][dead], just [dead]. There are various reasons for that, shadowbanning is one. Without them actually commenting (so we can see that their comments are all starting off dead), as users we can't tell anything else about this situation.
