Send a message to the mod [email protected] , so he takes a look. Did you delete your [dead] submission? Don't do that.

About the idea about email, take a look at whatever has patio11 wrote about that. Probably https://training.kalzumeus.com/lifecycle-emails or https://www.kalzumeus.com/2012/05/31/can-i-get-your-email/

Thanks gus_mass!!

That’s very kind of you. I did indeed delete the post after I saw it got flagged because I was scared it would cause my profile to get deleted or something like that.

I now gave it a 2nd try, see: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25417505

If it also gets flagged, I’ll send a message to the mod [email protected].

SUPER THX for the two patio11 links. I added them to my reading list!

Cheers, - Alex :)

The part about deletions is in the FAQ: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html

> Please don't delete and repost the same story. Deletion is for things that shouldn't have been submitted in the first place.

Don't worry, but next time remember to contact the mods.
