Obviously it isn't legit to use multiple accounts like this. I've banned this one. If you don't want to be rate limited on HN, we're happy to take off the penalty whenever anyone sincerely wants to use HN in the intended spirit.
If you keep breaking the site guidelines with your main account, we're going to have to ban that as well.
What does this mean? It's either verifiably true or it is not.
