As far as I understand it, the recommended way to get an improperly flagged submission back onto the front page is to email the moderators and ask them to manually override the flagging, not trying to brute force it by re-submitting. The HN moderators can be reached at the email on the contact page linked at the bottom.
You're definitely right, I should have done that instead. I reached out after seeing your post last night and it appears that the mods have removed the flag from the original post.
[dupe] This is a dupe. Discussion is there. No need to split it up. Flagged doesn't mean it hasn't been seen or isn't active, front page doesn't matter, stuff moves fast around here.
I'm not trying to split the discussion, the original post should clearly not be flagged. Also, I've never seen a post organically fall off the front page in less then 3 hours with hundreds of votes, unless the number of comments exceeds the post upvotes.
This is HN, not /r/politics.
A tv segment that got canned, accidentally broadcast in Canada and is now being hosted via BitTorrent and the internet archive. Of course there’s a tech angle here.
> Flagged doesn't mean it hasn't been seen
For anyone arriving at the site after the moment it’s flagged it certainly does.
