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.

    Doesn’t bother me at all.

    In fact, if people are getting so worked up just because I go against the status quo, that means I must be doing something right!

    So thanks for the stats—I may even add that info to my profile! (EDIT: Profile updated.)

    Feels pretty awesome, actually. Thank you! :)

      Now you’re using direct Trump quotes on top of just having main character syndrome? Are you Trump himself, or just following in his footsteps?

      Either way, it makes my job easier if you add it to your profile. I’ll still post them because most people avoid your profile altogether.

      This is a pretty standard far-right talking point, but makes no sense. By this logic, every serial killer and rapist must be “doing something right” just because they are going against the status quo and people don’t like them.
