Hmm that's unfortunate. How do I become un-dead?!

I Am Not A Necromancer, but I believe the process involves some sort of blood sacrifice and, in some cultures, a certain amount of chanting. Dancing may also be involved, or at the very least the rattling of bone talismans.

Hth.

What's likely happening is someone's vouching for your comments. I did that for your other one.

You should rapidly become considered a normal user, but I'm told emailing HN is what you do if you continue to be auto marked dead.

How do you vouch for someone? I can't see an option - is it like flagging?

Click the time stamp of the comment and the vouch link should show.

You need a karma level of 30 for the flag / vouch links to appear. You need to have showdead turned on to see the comments that have been flagged.

Here are two comments from dang about it: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10638699
