I don't get it - couldn't it just be the first time (s)he has commented? I originally made my account in order to post my first reply to something.

Note the name chosen, and the second and third words that (s)he quoted.

I'd just assume that they needed to create an account to comment and picked the first username that came to mind. Quite logically, this was a couple of words from the reply that they had already formulated in their mind.

Maybe it's the start of a reddit like novelty account. There sure are a lot of "not exactly" situations on HN. Could make a karma mint on any patent thread.

Wow, now I wish I'd thought of having a notexactly account.

You may have this one (if you can live with a throwaway). I have posted my original account in a comment above. It has my email ID in it. Email me and I will give you the password. Before that I will make a comment here stating that I have transfered the account and will wait till the delete option is gone. Seems fair?

Is it still called a "mint" if it's all downvotes?
