yeah... you know, I agree with that thread earlier getting pulled. I tried catching up with it this morning and just got sick of the nonsense.

I really hope the mods spend the time to see who it was (again) who destroyed what was a decent thread. In fact, I think it was you who posted late y'day afternoon about how polite it was due to the absence of a couple people. once those 2 or 3 showed up, the thread went Ape, then, when it was Already Losing Steam, it got very gor-y.

I'm now convinced those certain unnamed few do that to those threads on purpose. Why? Honestly, I don't know. It serves no purpose at all. Then again, the constant Hitler, Stalin, Nazis, Satan, etc garbage is inhumanly annoying as well.

The part that pissed me off was that I had pinned a creationist to the wall with his minifig experiment and never got a reply.

That thread got pulled because you yahoos didn't like the beating you were taking. NONE of us hit the abuse button. In fact, just before it got pulled, Junior mentioned bringing in the admin.

Oh looky, Kindergarten-code. How "polite".

Why? Honestly, I don't know.

Because, I rather suspect, the game is effective propaganda, not argumentation. They try to trash threads that make good propaganda for evolution. They stay marginally polite on threads that feature dense, legitimate-looking creation science early on.

They just bury the evidence when they get backed into a corner - happens more and more frequently.

If the moderators just wanted to stop a (supposed) flame war, they could just lock the thread. That would leave all the good, friendly, pleasant posts available for future reference.

Of course, it would also expose the looneys as the fools they are when they try to rewrite history and anyone could verify who did, and did not, start, or engage in, any supposed "flame war".

That's why they have to erase the evidence of their past perfidy. I guess we have no choice but to live with that for the moment.

You never will. The second they are losing, the thread gets pulled! Hmmmm... go figure.
