Not me, but we all do have our own personal identities that include individual preferences and agendas. I think our spam reporting contest would identify most of this if it were happening. I would also think they would target forums with much more liberal rules for posting.

If someone suspects this going on, I would expect them to notify a Mod or Admin.

It's not the CORPORATE funded turfing that I worry about, unless you include NOT-FOR-PROFITs in there as well. You know, the moveon.org types. Those folks are turfing constantly, here and elsewhere.

I just got a spam email from one of those fine vendors, offering to go around and overrun review sites on my behalf. Jerks.

Because you're failing to notice them on all the other sites?
