With all respect to NP, the search function is not the greatest feature of the site and does not yield reliable results. This is a known issue. I have often searched for articles that I know are on the site (to save myself time trawling through the site) but they have failed to come up in the search results. I repeat: it is a known issue.

So, again, you are experiencing what everyone else experiences. You and your articles are not being singled out on NP. No one is sabotaging you.

HUMAN RIGHTS FOR PRISONERS MARCH
http://my.nowpublic.com/world/human-rights-prisoners-march-was-postponed-weather

When someone tells me how the link to an article of mine was substituted to direct traffic to another article, and the article that originally belonged with that link was deleted, I will appreciate it.  I merely report what is being done, and I have no capacity to track where the interference originates.  When you see my films, you will have a greater understanding that what happens does not result from computer glitches.  This problem is old and predates my membership here.  However, it is real.  I have repeatedly asked how the situation in sentence #1 happened, and no one ventures to answer me, but certainly no computer glitch can do that.  As far as the HR for Prisoners March article not being available in the NP search field, I simply report that because I found it strange and inconvenient initially, and I still do. 

I have limited understanding about computer programming and technical matters.  However, I have been a computer user since the first PCs were invented for probably 50 companies, as I was a contract employee for years.  In my experience, a databank is programmed to respond to prompts in a certain way.  Once a computer system is programmed, it functions that way across the board unless there is a malfunction that can be corrected or the system has been coded to function differently for a given entry.  If NP's system is designed to search taglines, author, and title fields to pull up articles, I fail to understand why it would react differently for certain articles.  Machines don't have minds.  Whenever a computer treats data differently from other data in that same category, it either HAS to be a malfunction (presumably correctable) or the computer system is responding to coding that is specific to that data.  If you have another explanation, let me know, please.  I have checked with computer professionals, and this is the only explanation I was given, and it was the same as I had already concluded - correctable malfunction or deliberate coding.

Thanks for your response, and thanks in advance if you can explain how the circumstances discussed herein occurred - missing articles with redirected links and articles that are excluded from the search function.

For a relatively brief explanation of the cyberterroism and in-person stalking I endure and some of my other family members have experienced and the reason behind it, please see this Forum topic comment.

Thanks.

Again, to avoid any misunderstanding, I have just removed a spam post from this thread also. The spammer was advertising escort agencies.
