I would think so. And as far as the way this user is using their account and HN

> Please don't use HN primarily for promotion. It's ok to post your own stuff occasionally, but the primary use of the site should be for curiosity.

(Of course by saying so, I'm breaking the guideline on insinuating the user is shilling.)
