IMC Trolls Posting Bogus Pharmaceutical Ads Again

by Veteran IMC User Thursday, Sep. 20, 2007 at 5:04 PM

It appears that IMC trolls or outside observers are attempting to clog the website again with useless advertisements for British pharmaceutical products.

This has happened before and it appears to be a tactic to bog down the breaking news column and push whatever contents are posted off of the front page. I would imagine that it has something to do with the postings that are critical of Israel in relation to 9/11 and the local appearances of two authors who have published a compelling book about the pro-Israeli lobby. It seems that the one thing that really provokes IMC trolls other than immigration is criticism of Isreal. So it doesn't take half a brain to see where these individuals are coming from. The IMC should have a routine for cleaning up this clutter immediately, just as it does for regulating hateful postings.

They don't seem to have much time @ LA IMC. To clean up or respond to these assaults. Even to respond to their Email

Its like this, cat.

They are trying to boost their google rank by getting the url's out there- we've seen this here before- there are posts that are really just misc link farms.

It has nothing to do with Israel or with 9/11. Its spam and it has to do with making money.

LA and the other sites that have this problem need to get with the program to defeat the spam bots.

nope, it's just noise.

by look at the hidden zone Saturday, Sep. 22, 2007 at 12:38 AM

If you examine the hidden zone you will see it's just a barrage of noise.

The ad-bot profit excuse is not likely.

It's just a thin cover since no one [ Here ] would patronize any product this asshole spams just out of being pissed. A hostile market sector. This is plian stupid to believe we would seriously consider this assault anything but the same old same old. From the usual suspects. The same ones who were assaulting SF IMC.
