In the future, you can just use the timestamps on the new submission page to gauge the rate of submission.

The "n minutes ago" of the last page on "new" is a reasonable moving average of the current submission rate.

How fast were you reloading the page?

My banning might have also been related to my post links. I submitted the same link today as I did two days ago. But I just submitted it again because I was changing my code from a paid resource to open source. Submitting an open source resource shouldn't trigger spam filters, in my opinion. Kind of frustrating.

Yeah, good call. I probably clicked refresh once a second for 10 seconds. I guess they thought I was DDOS'ing the site.

You would get an IP ban in that case, not an account ban.
