But I recently posted a poll 3 days back which got 70 upvotes and it came on first page (top 10). Surprising is that I can't see [dead] alongside my post when i see my submission history

Yeah, that poll is the one anomaly. Go to your profile and set "showdead" to yes, I think that will let you see all [dead] posts and submissions.

I found out , problem is our submission rights have been taken , it might be due to reposting and deleting stories, or might be due to posting irrelevant material which is of no relevance to HN community .

[Amadou]

Where do you find that? Is there some sort of recourse?

[linux_devil]

Send gentle mail to HN , they might give your submission rights back.

Thanks, but I think I will take it as a sign that I should just move on to some other site. The internet is a big place.
