My guess - the "too fast" is for activity from your IP # or block, not for activity from your account. But the error message was never updated to reflect the actual code.
Generic advice: Unless you have a paid account, or are officially representing your company, it is usually better to not become too emotionally invested in any on-line forum. HN included.

I'm on residential dialup, not some kind of company network, so it is unlikely that my IP subnet has a high number of HN users.
