If you don't getted banned by HN at least once, you aren't trying hard enough
My main HN account just got banned. I was just reloading the new page too frequently to gauge the rate of new submissions (to see if it was a good time to post). The way I see it, entrepreneurship is all about experimentation and learning how to properly utilize the HN community is just another step in this game. Bummed that my high karma account doesn't work anymore, but oh well. To all others who have been banned in pursuit of success, I salute you.

[ 3.1 ms ] story [ 39.5 ms ] threadThe "n minutes ago" of the last page on "new" is a reasonable moving average of the current submission rate.
How fast were you reloading the page?
Someone wrote a 'best time to post' post, I'll see if I can find it.
I cannot even submit the wordpress 3.6 annoucement from wordpress.org, apparently any url with wordpress in it is considered spam?
Still hoping to get back my _ck_ account someday.
