The Laconica implementation is http://army.twit.tv by Leo Laporte. I'm not a representative, just a user of Twit Army. The offending user is called TechGlance, and he is only available on Twitter, as far as I can see. On Twitter, his user name is techglance.

The problem is that Twit Army is a social community, not a place to dump links to tech articles. TechGlance had promised to stop posting link dumps, but apparently he didn't keep his word. At this moment, his posts are very annoying and people get frustrated with this person's behavior.

I would appreciate if you can look into this.

Twitterfeed as spam engine
How can I prevent someone else from using Twitterfeed for spamming purposes?

I'm on a Laconica server and someone is misbehaving by dumping links from Twitter, through Twitterfeed to TWIT Army. I think Twitterfeed should prevent such misbehavior.
