Ask HN: How to do a question with a throwaway account?

1 points by gt2 ↗ HN
My question never shows up to the public, only to the throwaway account. But I see it done by other new throwaways often.

Does your question include hot-button terms likely to get flagged by something on HN designed to filter out spam or trolls?

It was probably killed by an overzealous automatic antispam filter. Try contacting resubmitting it again and if that fails try contacting the mods hn@ycombinator.com

(Note: It's fine to use a throwaway account in special circumstances, but don't create a throwaway account every day.)
