Seriously, god forbid you have a different opinion otherwise you're instantly downvoted.

oh it's worse now - if you get some number of downvotes, you get 9 minute timeouts between posts.

HN does something similar, though I don't know the metrics, and it's more of a "you're allowed one post every 20 minutes on a 60 minutes rolling window".

HN has it worse. You do not have even to be downoted to get "you are posting too fast" message. Not the most stupid thing on HN, but close.
