Yeah, you are right, it was rather too quick to repost—but hey that can happen when founder are enthusiastic about their product. And their were tons of redundant Godaddy SOPA posts—that can happen on a social news site, I am not angry about the repost, maybe next time they should think about a new hook but badger is a promising product with an awesome domain search—I tried it and I like it. So before snitching them try the product once.

We are all founders and if there is one who might be a bit too spammy, too pushy, too persisent, we flag, downvote him—we should hold together. Starting something, especially a domain registrar isn't easy (and there is a need!) and we should support every one of us.

Disclaimer: I've nothing to do with badger, I don't know them

The question was more of an open one, of what's seen as allowable and what's not. My post wasn't intended to be a snitch, it was more of a reference other posts/responses about the same service.

I for one didn't see a problem in the repost. The format is different (the other really only showed up under "ask", and this is on the main page), and badger said they removed the invite only, which is definitely a milestone on releasing a product. I'm glad they reposted without 'SOPA' in the title; I for one was starting to ignore that word on HN.

Congratulations to Badger for creating a new registrar. I'm sure there were a lot of hurdles to jump through.
