your a clever man bonkey, but your pro-ct/anti-ct argument doesnt wash... there are millions of different ct's, to call someone pro-ct or anti-ct is just way too black and white. The world aint like that...
Billy and miju (and most people I'm sure) have been both pro and anti ct depending on the particular ct under discussion. What we are saying is that the mods have been abusing their power depending on whether they argree with the particular ct or not - and yes "anti-ct" (for want of a better phrase!) people like diogenes have been shafted as a result of this too.
I once made a light-hearted jibe at diogenes on a thread and got a month long ban from. ridiculous.You want no moderation for the CT forum?
not no moderation... perhaps new moderation?

Well then maybe you'd care to define clearly what stances the mods are for and against, and show that these stances they are against have consistently been unfairly picked on?your a clever man bonkey, but your pro-ct/anti-ct argument doesnt wash... there are millions of different ct's, to call someone pro-ct or anti-ct is just way too black and white. The world aint like that...
After all, you've identified this trend and you know that its not a simple case of being pro- or contra- some sweeping issue.....so you presumably have already identified the specific stances that you're referring to in vague terms on this thread.
Care to let us know what they are? Care to state how confident you are that there won't be posters who took stances against those positions and suffered in no way because of it?What we are saying is that the mods have been abusing their power depending on whether they argree with the particular ct or not
Would this be the same "we" who teamed up together on threads with the title of "Bonkey, Diogenes et al, Misinformation Agents or **** Modding?? " ?????
I haven't seen Billy agree with a 911 conspiracy theory yet...but countless pro-911 posters are still unbanned.
Similarly, Diogenes was not alone in going against miju regarding JFK, but only Diogenes picked up a ban for it.
And yet I haven't been, despite consistently siding with Diogenes. Indeed, in the aforementioned JFK thread that Diogenes got his (first) ban for, it was a to-and-fro between me and miju that he was following up on which led to the ban. But nothing was said to me...despite me clearly being against the mods.- and yes "anti-ct" (for want of a better phrase!) people like diogenes have been shafted as a result of this too.
Remind us all what that "light-hearted" jibe was.I once made a light-hearted jibe at diogenes on a thread and got a month long ban from. ridiculous.
Care to state whether it was, in your opinion, a one-off jibe, or teh continuation of a long-running to-and-fro where the mods finally decided they had had enough?
New moderation which kicks out all the "misinformation agents" like myself?not no moderation... perhaps new moderation?;)
Or just new moderation which allows a return to the good old days of comments like "Diogenes I await your sick attempts to explain this away" , and threads entitled "Bonkey, Diogenes et al, Misinformation Agents or **** Modding?? " but which don't get locked?
Personally, I'm of the opinion that the mods engaged in a much-needed clamp-down.0 -

There is no problem with bias which was pointed out nicely by bonkey earlier and as I also outlined at the start of the thread. The admins would have no problem in demodding me (and indeed rightly so) if they thought that was the case. The only problem that exists / did exists in CT and I'll again repeat it is that not enough modding was done and things were allowed to run a bit wild.
That however has changed as of late
As for my hypocrisy , I'm a normal user outside of the forums I mod and am subject to the same repremands as everyone else. You may not have noticed that there is no charter here about going OT etc, I suggest you read this thread. So while it may not be setting a perfect example it certainly isn't hypocrisy as it's not against the forum charter here.
You will of course also note that I didn't take the thread off topic in the first place (henbane i'm looking your way
) , I merely partook in a bit of friendly banter before the thread naturally went back on topic. Thats what makes boards.ie so funky IMO Surely (though probably not) you can see the difference between the two cases ???
So it seems your finger of "blame" might be slightly misplaced there
