@baddox

The "c...j...k" word causes comments on HN to auto-[dead].

Thanks for the tip. That's really dumb.

A few other words do it too (rot13("znfgheongvba") does it as well, but only some of the time). I don't think this is caused by a hard-coded blacklist of words, but I'm not really sure exactly what conditions have to be met for it to happen.

@scarecrowbob: Your comment (the one that is a sibling to this comment) is also [dead]. I have no idea why, this is getting kind of absurd...

HA! My reply that quoted you is dead for similar reasons.

Can you give more hints about this word? I want to know and I don't get the hint.

circle + (beefjerky - cow)

One of the tweets from the article used the term. Baddox quoted that term. If you turn on "show dead" you can see baddox's comment.

So that's why my list of all-time-best punk bands that I keep posting to HN never gets any replies!
