Ask HN: Commenting on own link submissions

2 pointsKliment3 comments

It seems I cannot comment on the link I just submitted (http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=976048 , the one about the pushups book). Is this normal? I seem to be able to comment on other people's new submissions, and have been able to comment immediately on my own older ones.

Your link seems to be dead. Perhaps it was flagged as spam?

Just deleted and resubmitted with a verified link. On deleting HN insisted the item did not exist. On resubmitting, I still cannot comment. Can someone check if the link works?

Maybe it got automagically marked as spam. I wonder why. I don't see how a book about getting in shape ( http://www.lulu.com/product/download/the-little-book-of-push... ) would be automagically spammy.
