    As are your's for you Alastair.

    Not to mention your condscending attitude and your constant insulting of other members being a great asset to the forum at large.

    I like to shine a light on the many holes in the half-baked. I guess you don't have to like it, but it's good for you.

    Sigh.

    Demonspawn, I think you should take a deep breath and relax.

    Also, thank you for publishing my dormant youtube account from 2 years ago. I've had to go and delete the videos. If it was something I wanted to share with the forum I would have.

    I openly admit to being an agnostic. I'm not an atheist. I summed up my religious beliefs in a post in the freemasons thread you took so much interest in.

    Why delete the videos if you're so honest and up front? Surely you have nothing in your past you wish to hide? Yeah, I love your honesty alright. The problem with you people is you arrogance. You think we can't see through your facade. Well, I can.

    Pull the other one - it's got bells on.

    If the various advocates of CT's can't support their perspective against facts, then the emphasis is going to be on the specifics of the, eh, reality.

    For a bunch of people who notionally advocate an alternative perspective, you're awfully reticent to actually specify what you do believe.

    People wont enter discussion with you because of your attitude.

    You don't trust Ct sources, Cter's don't trust you sources.
    You both think you've got the facts but you disagree with each other and thats just fine.
    What isn't fine is abusing people for the awful crime of disagreeing with you or not giving you information they're under no obligation to give you in the first place.

    Your problem is that you consistantly fail to understand that it is possible to make a point without insulting the person you're having a discussion with.
    When you insult people you give them a good reason not to continue discussions with you.

    Do you ever do anything here but carp about 'abuse'? I don't think I've ever seen a post from you that contained any actual information.

    Your insults won't work on me. I'm not ashamed of what I believe, which is what you and people like you try so desperately to achieve. You mock those that get close to the truth so they appear foolish.

    Probably because I steer clear of the tedious 9-11 threads you're so partial to. There is a whole world of CT's outside that subject. I've also been posting on this particular forum longer than you, so i'll forgive you for missing things.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,257 ✭✭✭✭MrStuffins


    I find a lot of the ideas in this forum facinating and i like to read them.

    But i try not to get into the discussions. And why is this? This is because there are a lot of people like Demonspawn here.

    Everything is a conspiracy. And if i agree with 99% of your theory but not 1% of it? "YOU'RE IN ON IT!"

    In this thread, Demonspawn has come across incredibly irrational and this happens quite a lot in threads, here some people have pre-conceived ideas and REFUSE to listen to anyone.

    And sometimes they get childish and react like petulant kids if they don't get their own way (which happened here with the terrible and unwarrented personal abuse).

    I'm hoping the new mods can clean the place up a bit and those like myself will not be discouraged from contributing!

    What? Privacy on a Youtube account with your exact same username? All I had to do was Google it and your Youtube channel came up. Go on, pull the other one again. I wonder what else I can find with your username.

    I bet your patience is running thin. Nobody likes to be exposed for what they are, do they? You better ban me before I uncover some other dark secrets about you. Not like that will help though, better get your buddy DeVore to block my ip.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 7,225 ✭✭✭Yitzhak Rabin


    Alistair an Nullzero, knock off the digs at each other.

    As Bonkey said in the first post we are looking for ways to improve the forum and pehaps amend the charter. As the new mod here, I'd like to be an integral part of that. The best way of getting things changed is to stop and compose a suggestion of what aspect of the charter you would change, and how you would like it to be applied, rather than attacking each others posting styles.

    Like your 9/11 superthread suggestion Nullzero. Its a good idea and, if we could expand on what exactly we want, I could get working on it tomorrow.

    Hello

    It seems to have escaped some people's attention but I have also been made Mod :)

    I don't post very often here but I do lurk a lot

    I have seen mention above of the charter being implemented equally for both sides all I can say is that from my point of view is that it will

    Abuse is abuse and I wont tolerate it no matter which side of the discussion it comes from

    Having been around a while I am not afraid to ban people for misbehaving but hopefully I wont have to do to much of that if people can be civil to each other

    Welcome to forum:) I have a question if you don't mind seen as though you dont post here that often why do you want to moderate this forum and what will you bring to the position?

    As an occasional lurker of this forum, I would just like to state my belief that demonspawn is one of the worst posters on the entire website. His behaviour in the Barry Jennings thread was laughable, childish and frankly pathetic. The way he has responded to the new moderators is also really quite sad.

    demonspawn only serves to give conspiracy theorists a bad name.

    Congratulations to the new moderators.

    I'd like to see more exposure of the Rotarians - the real puppetmasters behind the Freemasons.

    Yup, more insults and character assassination. They all crawl out of the woodwork like so many wood lice. Keep it rolling.


  • Site Banned Posts: 8,331 ✭✭✭Brown Bomber


    Yekahs personally I welcome you with open arms. You must be the only openly (would-be) freemason that moderates a CT forum in the history of the internet. However, I definitely support your appointment.

    Demonspawn - I think you and yekahs may have got off on the wrong foot, thats all. Yekahs is alright in my experience

    I dont think it would be an unreasonable request if you werent (sorry something weird happens when I press the apostrophe key) able to ban-lock-delete threads that have a relevance to freemasonry?

    The Recliner, apart from being an economics mod would I be correct in assuming you would be part of the "boardsie" clique? What interest do you have in the forum? 7000 odd posts and none that I recall seeing here?

    And to whoever made the decision they must try to understand the scepticism at the appointments from certain quarters here.

    Consistently, but especially recently conspiracy theory advocates have been subjected to a torrent of abuse that has essentially gone unpunished, which has led to a free for all. I am strongly of the view that it flys under the radar because it is a litany of sly digs that are aimed at a group to which the moderators dont belong. Therefore they are not conscious of the insults.

    Like nullzero has said there will be no CT forum if things are allowed to continue they way they are.


    3 (and I only assume four) out of the four mods on a CT forum are skeptics, makes no sense to me and cant happen by accident.

    Why not add a 5th to the team?

    Not a conspiracy theorist but I think mynameisurl would be ideal.

    What about a moderate CT guy for mod too?
    What about nullzero?
    wakeup?
    Ireland Spirit?
    Torax?
    squod?

    Squod the mod even has a nice ring to it. I can understand why you wouldnt have someone like uprising or myself, but cant think of single reason (assuming theyd accept) why they wouldnt be a better choice than the recliner chap, (nothing personal).

    Hi Demonspawn,

    Sorry to hear you didn't like the decision to make me a mod. But its really irrelevant what side of the spectrum you come from when it comes to being a mod. All you have to have is an ability to enforce the charter, regardless of who is breaking the rules.

    I feel that I am objective in this regard. If you could see my reported post history, you would see that I have reported far far more posts from sceptics than proponents of CTs.

    Also, you say I am not open to any CTs. This is simply not true. I have started threads which I put forward CTs. I have changed my viewpoints on a number of issues since I began posting here.

    As for the freemason thing. I have been completely upfront about everything there. I have let the members of this forum know of my intentions before my family!!

    You are entitled to your opinion, but all I can do is say, that I will aim to be completely objective in any mod decision I have to make, and I look forward to continuing to post on this forum and explore all the CTs I am interested in.

    Congrats on your new position Yekahs. A wannabe freemason CT Moderator:D:D:D this should be interesting:)
