GitHub suspended my account, and I couldn't submit a support ticket
I filled email and select the reason (Account locked: My account has been locked or suspended) in https://ift.tt/voJFDV4 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? 6 comments on Hacker News.
