Wow, you are not exaggerating by "a little misleading", like half the posts on that account's history are undisclosed promotion/praise of Clacker News, and then a couple claiming ownership of it.

There's even one comment referring to Clacker News with "they"! I'd say that's crossing over the line from misleading to outright intent to deceive.

But more honest than making up sockpuppets to do it I guess...
