Hopefully they see this - there's still time to edit the submission link.
It doesn't let me edit the link, but I'm confused by what even happened here... I posted this from my phone and that wrong link doesn't show up in my clipboard history.

Link should be: https://hydrogenaudio.org/index.php/topic,129691.0.html

It's fixed now.

Our software follows redirs and somehow we got a 302 to our own IP. Perhaps it is someone's idea of a bot detector?

Unrelated: Hey, I sent hn@ycombinator.com two emails. One was May 6th, the other June 18th (UTC+2). The former's subject is "Broken prev/next links sometimes". In the latter, I've asked to let me know if it arrived. It didn't bounce so your email server has acknowledged receipt, but based on fast responses to previous emails and someone else mentioning randomly that you responded quickly to theirs in iirc early June, I'm starting to assume you're not seeing mine. I don't know how else to reach out than via an off-topic comment or a dummy submission or so. Is there a fallback mechanism to use when your email doesn't?
Well, they don't read all the emails -or- respond to @dang, @mod, etc.

Your approaches are, ride a comment (as you did, 9 hours, no response, likely didn't read) or lean on a frequent flyer (the only privilege I have is increased ability to [dead] obvious spam not caught by filters - but it gets my emails seen)

I sent them an email in past minute - Good Luck! (YMMV)

Your options are:

* quick email to HN@ycombinator.com with a "Help Me please!! and link ( mods can edit link in and sideline (hide) these comments )

* Just live with the rotting fish head of public boo boo (we've all made mistakes, as the Dalek said whilst climbing down off the dustbin)

* I can kill the whole thing dead.
