Replying to ekm2, who is hell-banned:
So,who is Suzanna Musick?
Good question! I'm not going to post details here, but she appears to have plenty of public info easily Google-able, including a Linkedin profile and the name of her current startup. That said, I couldn't find anything about this company at all, and don't want to delve too much deeper as it's starting to make me feel creepy.

- ekm2 12y agoThank you! I had no idea i was hellbanned(though I wont waste my time begging for an unbanning).
- dang 12y ago> I had no idea i was hellbanned That's because you're not. You posted a couple of comments from an IP that was banned because of past abuses (apparently by others). We unbanned the UP and unkilled the two comments. It's on our list to make the IP banning system better so that this happens less often. Having it happen at all is bad, obviously, but the measures available to counter abuse are often unsatisfactorily crude, and doing nothing is not an option.
- Schwolop 12y agoMy apologies, I should've just said "banned" or "dead" or some other word. I've seen other people use the "hellbanned" word before and figured it was the right phrase. Out of interest, I did look up the user and saw that he/she seemed not to have done anything that I felt deserving of any form of ban - how should I have communicated this back to you? Am I even encouraged to do so?
- dang 12y agoAbsolutely! Email us at hn@ycombinator.com. We're more than happy to fix stuff like this. We intend to build ways for the community to regulate these things without going through us, but it's going to take a while to get there.
- softdev12 12y agoI was wondering the same thing.
