I did. When I tried I received a message that the "Show HN:"s were disabled because of (load).

What have I missed?

Thanks.

    You should ask the mods: hn@ycombinator.com

    You should not post a link with a misleading title (like this one)

      Thanks. I understand.

      Now I can't post now because I'm going too fast so I can't generate a screenshot to send to hn@ycombinator.com

      I'm inexperienced with this UI.

      I'll wait until I can try again.

I see new "Show HN:"s are showing up but I can't post one. Is something wrong?

    new accounts are restricted because of AI slop/spam, you'll have to wait something like a week or two

      I understand. Thanks for the reply. I guess I can wait.

      I would like to help out if I can. I don't like seeing good things spoiled.

      Looking around I don't think the AI slop/spam is going to stop or get better on it's own. Given the trajectories here it may well get worse quickly.

      How about requiring anyone who posts maintain a valid payment method and if they post "spam" it would be up to the moderators, or aaided by regular members, to leavy a fine.

      Like I said, this won't stop by itself.

      I do think some posts are by folks trying to get a leg up on programming. Can they be "special" in some way so others could give them help as they can?
