[Imc-aotearoa-ed] hid a post // spam attack !!

[finn c.]

Hi all,

Hid another post be victor - http://www.aotearoa.indymedia.org.au/front.php3?article_id=124&group=webcast

Another duplicate. I'm getting quite sick of this person . . . We should really class his behaviour as a spam attack. It probably doesn't matter too much, as the the majority of his posts are duplicates and don't require group input. Thoughts?

// C. Spam Attack Procedure [top]

A spam attack is defined as a pattern of abuse of the newswire by a particular poster. If the editorial collective reaches consensus (at a meeting or on the listserv) that a specific individual is launching a spam attack on the AIMC newswire, the spammer's post(s) may be hidden from the newswire by a member of the editorial collective. Each instance of recognized spam will be considered individually, and the reason why the editorial collective perceives the post(s) as spam will be stated on the editorial list, as well as in a comment on the hidden article itself. When a member of the editorial collective hides a post, (s)he shall immediately notify the editorial listserv.
