a single source, nothing corroborates it
Let a reader resubmit a post that got flagged
A submission from the maker can be flagged off the site, and that is not the end of it. When a reader who liked the piece posted the same link, it held a front page position for twelve hours and finished on well over a hundred points.
The method
- 01
If your own submission to Hacker News is flagged, the story can still land when a reader who liked it submits the same link.
What it returned
- 24
The founder's own submission was flagged; a resubmission by someone else held position 24 on the front page for 12 hours and finished on 139 points.
