I am curious to know why this post was taken down. It was certainly a useful post that organically bubbled to the top as quality content. Can someone please provide feedback.
It wasn't taken down. It was knocked off the front page by flags. My guess is that users feel the site is spammy.
By the way, one of several tactics that you shouldn't use on Hacker News is astroturfing. That (along with vote-rigging) are likely to alienate users and get your accounts, and your site, penalized.
