It is as irritating as all hell when this happens; an entire Sicilian event was based around a Deodati duke who was holding a ball or an auction or something; said gentleman had died more than two years previously during the break-out of plague on Sicilia, part of a past, not just written but roleplayed, to which players had responded a long time before.
I don't see to what extent the LT can be blamed for this kind of thing unless they are writing the faction plot lines themselves. Plot teams do tend to re-create the past, often very badly, cos they want to put their stamp on the faction. It isn't right, but considering how folk re-write real life, I can't be surprised at it.
