By (about the author)      

opednews.com

Text is appearing in articles under the name of commenters that those commenters did not write. I know because I am one of those commenters.

::::::::

See for example here.

This is of particular concern to me because I have recently received a warning about something I wrote from Rob Kall in which he said I might be banned if I repeated an offense. Rob did not give me enough information to identify which particular comment he found offensive. I am still waiting to get confirmation from Rob and will telephone him if necessary to ensure that we are actually talking to each other.

However, probably coincidentally, and possibly to do with the new comment ratings system that Opednews has implemented, comments are appearing under peoples identifiers that they did not write. (see above).

If for any reason I am banned from Opednews by mistake or otherwise, I may be contacted at brett.paatsch AT gmail.com.
