Is this board a target of covert agents?
For ~ a 6 month span in 2009-2010 every political fark I did, started something like this:



but ended up like this:



Sometimes it occurred within an hour or two.
Other times over the span of a few days.

First attack in 2009 took out every fark on my account -- Saban stuff, LSU, Tubberville, etc. Reloaded all of them, made security changes. That helped.

Subsequently the only jammed images were the political ones.

Talked with management at Photobucket, they were as befuddled as I was. It was during the flag@whitehouse.gov period. Eventually the fark trashing petered out and went away.
Creepy while it lasted though.

Photobucket sucks. Imgur FTW.

You need to switch on over to imgur. It's superior with easy accessibility, so easy to use, and easy to find everything. Imgur has no bandwidth limit and PB has one. Imgur also gives you a great deal more privacy than PB.

That IS creepy. In the run up to the 2010 elections we know the IRS was effectively active in silencing opposition. It is not a stretch to suppose the regime was active on more than one front to achieve their objective.

Thanks for sharing your experience.
