FYI, going forward we’ll be banning aggregate/forwarding links like this, Google Amp, Yahoo, and other forwarders.
I’ll have the official rule change and a sticky up on this later today, but you can see the problem here:
This isn’t an MSN story, it’s a New Republic story and the link is masking that.
Thank you
Why not just ban OP? “They” clearly are not posting in good faith and it’s ruining the community. It’s not about differences in opinion, but instead because it’s widely accepted at this point that this is not a “real” person and they have an agenda that isn’t healthy for this community.
The links they post aren’t bannable. They are legitimate news stories from legitimate sources. If you posted them, they would be just as allowed.
The rules are being changed because of this “person”. So the rules are apparently flexible and can be changed for the good of the community. OP has been downvoted heavily and has been shown that they post more than any real person could reasonably post in a lifetime. This was detailed earlier today by an observant reader.
Downvotes and posting like a hummingbird with OCD are not TOS violations.
Neither was this post until the mods decided to change the rules.
True, but banning users has a higher threshold. It has to be REALLY bad to ban a user.
Come over to PoliticsNoUM community. You wont have to deal with hands-off mods or universal russian monks.
Isn’t the The New Republic is an American left-wing magazine though? Is that an allowed source or is it just because of MSN stuff?
I’m fine no longer using MSN, but I’m not sure if New Republic is an approved source or not. Thank you!
Yeah, New Republic is fine, it’s just masking the OG source that’s the problem.

Keep in mind, the bias isn’t really a factor when submitting, it’s the credibility. I’ll take a right bias source, so long as they’re credible.
Example:
Makes sense. Thank you!
Thanks for the heads up. I’ll stop using MSN if it’s part of the new rule.

Stein didn’t hand trump the WH last time. It was the architect of the Pied Piper strategy that resulted in $billions in free advertising.
Everything HRC touches she kind of screws up with hubris.

Isn’t OP your sockpuppet account?
Don’t you realize, the DNC cannot fail, only be failed, ergo a same party third term candidate with 35% approval losing is not painfully predictable, but must be explained by nefarious outside actors, such as Jill Stein, Russia, or a failure of Reaganite Personal Responsibility among the voters.
Yep!!
