I made an account years ago, never posted, and decided I want to be more active in the community. Green accounts probably bc I sent my post to some friends and users directly when I made it. Is that illegal on HN? I legit don't know how things work here. I was excited over my launch post. Anyways, not a fucking bot, my company is real, the commenters on my post are real and if it's a crime for me to rapid fire post and/or have friends comment on my Show HN, good to know.
