You play the frontman, and your little friends push abuse. At least that's the way it was in one of my last posts to you.

And they accuse us of being hysterical. That is hysterical.

Pretty painful. I was thinking I needed that old slide rule I haven't seen in 40 years.

I have a slide rule built on to my watch.

Yes, there's a little cadre of them working in unison to get Creationists banned. I think lately though, there's been a mod who is beginning to see it. They have been warned about calling people liars and about spamming the abuse button.

I would reply, but you will tell the moderator that I am stalking you.

Hypocrite

This thread has degenerated into a troll pit. I hereby abandon thread.

You know, no one can get someone else banned...it has long been speculated around FR, that somehow those supporting evolution, have the moderators in their hip pockets, and that the moderators act to accomodate them, to work in some sort of secret plot to ban the creationists...now, that is truly a paranoid scenario...I have been told, that not a small number of the moderators are actually 'creationists', hardly those who support evolution...however, the mods do watch, do read, and ban those who cannot and will not abide by the rule...I cannot get anyone banned, neither can you, neither can anyone else...ones own big mouth, and foul rude posts do that all on their own...

But being as this is Jim Robs forum, he allows this type of discussion...the moderators put out a warning to posters on all sides of this debate, and they have known and have seen for a very long time, who deserves warnings, who deserves bannings, and who deserves to have their posts removed for being quite foul...

People on both sides have been guilty about calling people liars, and hitting the abuse button...for you to somehow think that those warnings were directed only against those supporting evolution, shows that you probably did not really comprehend what was being said...the moderators, I am sure, did admonish certain posters for their behavior...but it was also directed to ALL posters on these threads, keep it civil, dont post foul posts, as some have done(with their posts being pulled), and if you cannot keep it within bounds, then you risk being banned, no matter what side of this debate you fall on...

A warning for all of us...no plot, no conspiracy, no little scenario with the moderators taking one side or the other...just a polite warning to each and every one of us here...anyone should be able to see that...

That happened long ago.

I think that no attempt was ever made to comprehend. As always, you give the benefit of the doubt. In this case, IMHO, it is misplaced.

Just in the past week, zeeba threatened to call the mods on me when one time, and the first and only time, I made an oblique reference to what zeeba said on another thread the day before.

Yes, you want to pursue me from thread to thread and yell epithets at me. Though it is rather an endearing practice,and I am flattered, it really is for the best that you stop it.

I always do try to give the benefit of the doubt...I also never have called 'abuse' to any mods for any reason...I prefer for rotten foul posts to stand, as they are enlightening...(tho I understand the reason for removing such rotten posts)...

Methinks that perhaps some get riled up, when the mods remove their posts, with no goading from anyone...we must remember that these threads are constantly being monitored by the mods, not just when someone hits the abuse button...

And being unable to stand up and admit that their own words, and their own big mouths are what got their posts removed, they prefer to buy into some sort of conspiracy plot against them...its sad and pathetic, and shows that they dont want to take responsibility for what they said, and how they said it, and take the easy way out by blaming someone else for their own bad behavior...

If different people have the same interests, it follows that they wind up on the same threads...that is hardly pursuing anyone...if that was true, I would also have a long list of pursuers, as would everyone else on FR...

You are delusional. I read threads you post on and respond. Adults accept this. Grow up.

Well that's what I thought, but when I do it, I'm a troll and a stalker. The double standard applied to Creationists is quite apparent, sorry.

I also never have called 'abuse' to any mods for any reason.

For the most part, I agree. I've only done it once or twice, and never on crevo threads.

If I were to bet, I'd bet that creationists hit the abuse button ten times more, at least, than so-called 'evos'.

Still don't get it do you. When I say 'I read threads you post on and respond', it's not about YOU. YOU just happen to be posting on threads I read.

You really are vain, aren't you.
