Yes, their certainly does not seem to be a subject which is off topic as far as regular posters are concerned. Just efforts to exert some kind of control over others as far as can see. It can only be a reflection of there RL status.

It has to be a Numbers station, it's the only plausible explanation, since it's complete gibberish otherwise.
