GitHub suspended my account, and I couldn't submit a support ticket

6•milisp•1h ago

I filled email and select the reason (Account locked: My account has been locked or suspended) in https://support.github.com/contact/cannot_sign_in then submit.

A few steps to create a ticket.

After I filled everything then click submit. It show "An unexpected error occurred (status: 401)". So I never created a support ticket.

I think maybe the reason why my account was suspended:

I asked Opus 5.5 (claude code) to ask a few vendors in PRs on my own repo whether they'd offer a perk to users. It looped gh pr comment and posted the same text on 3 PRs within seconds. On the 4th call: "Your account was suspended."

Additional context: The three PRs were submitted by vendors seeking to list their MCP servers in my directory.

repo: milisp/mcp-linker

I guess Everything I login with github maybe lose if I don't use second login method.

Anyone can help?

I don't think anyone here will want to help you if this is what you do. This is not acceptable behavior in the community

You're right. I understand why this was inappropriate, and I won't do it again.

For context, these vendors had submitted PRs to my own directory to list their MCP servers

this reads like ai generated response, which itself breaks the HN rules, which an ai will often do in the immediate response to being told it broke the rules, your comment history shows a pattern of this

stop using ai bots for your writing, be a human

I'm sorry, now I know the comment rule too, Thank you. the post was written by myself, but the comment I learn from AI, not send by bot. I'll write everything by myself next time, Just use google translate.

Why? It was his own repo.
