sorry for making a topic, wasn't sure how to go about flagging users.

  I imagine sending pg or someone else thats a mod an email would be the proper way to go.
  • RiderOfGiraffes 18y ago
    I wouldn't know how to find the email address of a mod. Is that documented somewhere? I've had a quick look, but it didn't seem obvious.

      The news.yc editorial cabal keeps its membership secret. Just email PG.

  wasn't sure how to go about flagging users. Clicking link on a post [EDIT: on a comment] presents the flag option. You can then flag the post [EDIT: flag the comment] that way, which is the closest thing to flagging a user.

    but he hasn't submitted anything, so I'd have to flag entire random threads?
    • pclark 18y ago
      I stand corrected, I have to hit reply to see the flag option.

        I have to hit reply to see the flag option. That works, but so does clicking link.

  Does HN ban IPs for users? How can arrington be prevented from creating new users?

    Hm. It seems not, but it has the ability to hide or delete all posts from an IP. All my previous comments were wiped out at once. I can create a new account, and I continued the sequence, but I'm sure they'll suffer the same fate.

      OK, stopping for now, enjoy the peace and quiet guys.
