Why was a comment I made killed?
dc2k08: update: To respond to some of the comments here I must first say that my question has no intended malice. I was not aware that comments were auto-filtered which some posts mentioned and certainly the filters could be geared towards comments that mention payments, bank accounts and credit cards. I had thought the only spam detection system in place was the 'flag' feature.As long as there are no repercussions for being detected by the filters and my HN account stays in good standing there is no need to for me to be concerned.To the comments which suggested that this is not HN material and should have been addressed privately, I say that I did not suspect this post would receive as much attention as it did. I expected it to receive some sparse upvotes and an answer along the lines of "sensitive spam filter sometimes kills legitimate posts, known problem, nothing to be worried about". I did not want to clog up an admin's inbox querying it. I also wanted to check whether I was able to post.
