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.
Why does everyone have such an issue with something that is so easily ignored? I honestly don’t understand all the outrage over this.
You and me both! They did have a point when the bot had a donation nag on it, the bot creator heard that complaint and removed it.
