This would be partly true as the server is open to exploit.

"someone"?
No prizes for the lottery winner on this one.
The fact the cross-poasted threads are not a 
subject of attack has escaped your notice?

Those "quotefix" posts are a feature of Hipcrime.
The java enabled version (NewsMaestro) has been in
Derbyshire's possession for quite some time.
Given all the aid cljp has provided in assisting 
with sorting out the bits of code which did prevent 
the script from running it is no surprise to see the
group targeted, as the group population declared 
Derbyshire persona non grata. 
More of a double whammy "thanks" posting series?

Derbyshire is frolicking among the kooks in
alt.usenet.kooks taking solid hits from the regulars
with assorted kook awards coming his way.

All three of the above are apparitions of Derbyshire's invention.
All three have been focused on a failed "coup" of a/u/k.
How familiar to cljp lifers does that appear?
Most are now being forged in lampooning. The pegboi is 
not happy.
The action cljp is seeing is a standard reactive for
script enabled kooks hellbent on having their last word.

Join the dots to either wait it out till the open server dies
or filter on a set field, is all that could be done.
Those with balls could also contact the Sympatico Bell 
abuse desk asking if those posts are being pumped 
into a Tor network or socks4 host via their Bank St.
(Ottawa) server.

Given past examples it is not likely the shitstorm would 
ease soon.

---the only post on the topic, cljp you are on your own.
