Even if this is true, I doubt his comments are undesirable enough to passive-aggressively try to get him to stop using the site by silently slowing it down (if his claim to be on slowban is true). This kind of behavior seems like it should be reserved for trolls and other highly noxious personages.
- maxerickson 12y agoYeah, I didn't try to address that claim, I don't have any information about it.
- pc86 12y agoI obviously can't speak to whether MOC is experiencing it, but I can say that with my first HN account, before I understood the context and spirit of HN, I made a very Reddit-esque comment that got me banned. The first part of that was the so-called slowban, as the site was all but unusable when I was logged in. This was years ago and I have no idea if the mods still use this tactic, but I imagine so in certain cases.
