Why does Hackernews consider Techcrunch blog spam?

Everytime I try to post an awesome techcrunch link that everyone would love to see I get: stop spamming us you're wasting your time What gives moderators?

Cannot tell if you are being sarcastic or not. I hope that you are.

Strange because Hackernews moderators only usually censor smaller up and coming blogs not big ones like Techcrunch. They usually allow lots of spam from those.

There must be an error.

There must be a mistake the moderators here only usually censor smaller up and coming blogs not big ones that already get loads of traffic like Techcrunch.

Techcrunch usually are allowed as many links per day as they like while other smaller blogs aren't usually even allowed one.
