We’ve had some trouble recently with posts from aggregator links like Google Amp, MSN, and Yahoo.

We’re now requiring links go to the OG source, and not a conduit.

In an example like this, it can give the wrong attribution to the MBFC bot, and can give a more or less reliable rating than the original source, but it also makes it harder to run down duplicates.

So anything not linked to the original source, but is stuck on Google Amp, MSN, Yahoo, etc. will be removed.

    For a second I thought you were talking about our favorite high-traffic poster, who is now queue flooding 15 articles a day.

      Which one? There’s a bunch of them. Although I suspect that a lot of them are the same people using alt accounts.
