Although I saw the ironic humor in your post, others may not. And may akso not have noticed the quote was from the source by another member as shown here, in full for reference.

Technique #6 - 'GAINING FULL CONTROL' It is important to also be harvesting and continually maneuvering for a forum moderator position. Once this position is obtained, the forum can then be effectively and quietly controlled by deleting unfavourable postings - and one can eventually steer the forum into complete failure and lack of interest by the general public. This is the 'ultimate victory' as the forum is no longer participated with by the general public and no longer useful in maintaining their freedoms. Depending on the level of control you can obtain, you can deliberately steer a forum into defeat by censoring postings, deleting memberships, flooding, and or accidentally taking the forum offline. By this method the forum can be quickly killed. However it is not always in the interest to kill a forum as it can be converted into a 'honey pot' gathering center to collect and misdirect newcomers and from this point be completely used for your control for your agenda purposes.

You caught me, I'm one of those triple reverse disinfo ninjas...
I've never been good at keeping secrets, unless there's a nondisclosure agreement of course.

I'll accept your passive aggressive challenge. Even Wikipedia was questionable as a reference, but that was accepted later because it used sources well. Just go to bottom on the page.

But it would seem you target the source, which may be relevant to you, that isn't the topic. The content is, no matter where it comes from is still valid. What are you so torn up over, and why?

I do see your perspective on this, just don't understand it. I didn't see this info elswhere, its content is extremely relevant to this site in general, due to the frequency of said topic.

The thing I appreciate most about your contribution to this discussion, is the enthusiasm .

As has been stated many times on this thread.....The traits implied could easily classify anyone as being a dis-info agent.

Dis-info agents have to breath.....Does that mean anyone who breaths is a dis-info agent?
