Content moderation systems often hide mod actions from the content author [1]. That's a secret.
The opposite would be to show the author of the content some indicator that it's been removed, and I would call that transparent or disclosed moderation.
Interestingly, your comment first appeared to me as "* * *" with no author [2]. I wonder if that is some kind of ban.

edit I know you commented again but it's got that "* * *" thing again:

- altairprime 3y agoThere’s a protection system in place that can result in that; I don’t have the details at hand (since I’m not associated with HN/YC) but I remember seeing it once before on a highly contentious post, and an email to the mods helped explain/correct whatever was up.
- dang 3y agoIt's not a ban. It appears when the user has 'delay' in their profile set to N minutes and N minutes haven't elapsed yet. We should probably make this more explicit. Re the 'delay' setting see https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html.
- altairprime 3y agoAh, that makes sense. Thanks!
