Old news being recycled. Why? Lots of nick stealing too.
I am noticing a great amount of old news suddenly being reposted as new on the boards lately.
Does anyone know why these articles are appearing?
Another issue is a radical increase in nick stealing, mostly of Bush Admirer's, Eric's, and my own. The person(s) responsible for doing so are publishing dozens of bogus replys, almost all of which are profane or graphic, and almost none of which have anything to say.
Being that Bush Admirer is/has been 'banned' by the la.indymedia collective, it seems odd that posts bearing his name but obviously not penned by him are not disappearing. This fact could lead some to suspect that the collective itself, or members of it, are responsible for these attacks.
If anyone knows anything about these matters, illumination would be appreciated.
