Which evidence is more physical, falsifyable, and observable? Multi-Verse theory or the cited Exodus corroborated evidences, both on land and sea? Hooah, it's you same few vindictive members; about three or four of you who stalk me so as to attack my MO every time something like this comes up. You all simply waive off the fact that more is being required of me than of the general membership. Why? Because my evidence of the supernatural ID and creationism presents a real challenge to your secularistic, godless bent. BUZSAW B 4 U 2 C Y BUZ SAW.

Which evidence is more physical, falsifyable, and observable? Multi-Verse theory or the cited Exodus corroborated evidences, both on land and sea? Why don't you make a good-faith effort to list the evidence for both, in a relevant thread? Or perhaps you could open one to that purpose? It would be a tenuous basis to hold a discussion on what you think evidence is, and how propositions are supported by it, but it sounds like the best opening for it so far. The truth is, Buz, we're desperate to find out why you think you've produced evidence for the Biblical exodus, or for Obama's plan to devalue the dollar. We're curious how you think you can simultaneously argue that you aren't going to bother to produce evidence because you know we won't believe it, and also that you already have produced exactly the evidence we asked for. I don't see how both could be true. You can either explain the lack of evidence or present the evidence; you can't do both. Can you?
You all simply waive off the fact that more is being required of me than of the general membership. In fact, substantially less is being required of you than of the general membership. From day one, we were required to substantiate our positions with evidence. You've been allowed the run of the place coming on ten years, now.

Which evidence is more physical, falsifyable, and observable? I'll start off saying that you don't even know what multi-verse theory fully entails, so I would advise against you continuing to bring it up, much less in this thread. Second, I'll also advise against you arguing evidence since you have such a unique standard for it that you are the only person in existence that has the Buz standard, making it impossible to hold you to any claim. Third, calling you out your bullshit claims is not stalking. You come around for a bit and fling a bunch of poo, then hope everyone forgets your brand of crazy so when you come back you can pretend you accomplished something the last time you were here, when in reality, you left a lot of loose ends then whine incessantly about unfair treatment. It's old, just like you. Fourthly, of the two options (multi-verse or exodus): of course the multi-verse has more evidence than the exodus. You've never provided evidence for the exodus nor have you debunked multi-verse. Neither do you understand what evidence is so as to successfully provide any for any position you claim that isn't specifically and solely rooted in the bible.
Because my evidence of the supernatural ID and creationism presents a real challenge to your secularistic, godless bent. Ahh, good old christian delusions of grandeur interspersed with persecution.
godless bent. You say that like it's a bad thing lmao."Why don't you call upon your God to strike me? Oh, I forgot it's because he's fake like Thor, so bite me" -Greydon Square

I have some trepidation about continuing but absent moderator intervention, I suppose that it's OK. But I will try to restrict myself to the actual problems relevant to your bans.
quote: Well that is a lie for a start. There was plenty of debate in the Exodus thread, and a lot of valid points raised against your "evidence". True, a lot of it consisted of you repeating your assertions rather than providing any sort of reasoned defence of them, but if you want to support your contention of "no debate" on that ground you only confirm my point.
quote: Of course I did not say "all the people". I said "all the people who showed that your evidence wasn't any good". So there's one glaring misrepresentation. Because this isn't a discussion forum I won't deal with the multiverse issue here except to point out that you misrepresent my position and that off-topic ranting about cosmology is another of your bad habits. As I said elsewhere, the problem is that your evidence doesn't stand up to even basic critical examination and deserves to be rejected. If you can't come up with even one thing that is at least probably true AND probably something to do with the Exodus then you don't have much of a case. And the fact that you don't understand that is one of the issues you need to address.
quote: In fact I would say the multiverse theory by a nose - knowing that it is mainly a piece of theoretical speculation without a solid evidential foundation. But this is not a discussion forum so I don't propose to get into that. So let us sum up. To regain your privileges you have to: 1) Honestly discuss the nature of evidence, so that you understand why your arguments in the Exodus thread were rejected. (Note that I said "understand" not "agree"). 2) Convince Admin that you won't waste moderator time by producing PNTs that don't meet the requirements and then scrapping the topic when you are asked to fix your proposal. If you aren't prepared to produce acceptable proposals That's it. So long as you show that you are completely unwilling to address these problems and that you intend to continue to act badly in other ways, too you won't be allowed back in.

See Message 293.
Continuing to give Buz advice veers off the main purpose of this thread. ThanksAdminPD

For future reference, may I also reply to others' summaries in my summary? Hmmm, I have an even better idea. How about you have one SINGLE post on a thread or you're not allowed a summation? Seems reasonable to me ehe? Not one single post on the entire thread but your "summation" and I use the term loosely, and you're whining about me. Funny. Atleast I contributed. You on the other hand? Not so much.

Actually, I'm whining about two other members being suspended for 24 hours for doing the same thing you did without suspension.
I have no problem with what you posted. I have no issues with you posting a response to someone else's summary. Let a thousand flowers bloom--I don't in general support restrictions on anyone's speech. Nor did I voice any criticism of your post in my query to the admins above. I don't object to you criticizing my summary in that thread: fine, whatever. My objection is not to what you said or how and where you said it. My objection is to the inconsistent ruling by a moderator.

My evalution is that Chuck's message was poor, but it was marginally a summary message. At least he did recognize that the topic was in the "summary messages only" phase.
Bluescat's and DrJone's messages were even worse - They were snipey little (essentially) one line replies to previous messages. Bluescat's reply seems to be badly off-topic, and DrJone's reply was to a highly dubious first message from a new member. And concerning off-topic - When someone goes off-topic in a message or has some off-topic content in an otherwise on-topic message, it would be nice if others didn't "chase the off-topic". AdminnemooseusPlease be familiar with the various topics and other links in the "Essential Links", found in the top of the page menu. Amongst other things, this is where to find where to report various forum problems.

One reason my message was not a summation, was that I didn't even know that a summation had been called for. I was responding to IAmJoseph's response to one of my earlier posts, which was from the email that was sent to me showing a response, thus going right to the post I responded to it. I didn't find out about the summation until I logged in after the suspension was almost up.

So would you consider it appropriate for a thread to be closed for 24 hours to allow participants time to become aware of the call for summations?

Maybe a flag could be set on a thread which displays a 'special message' when people are replying (in this case a "summary only" message)?

That's more of a programming solution which could be suggested to Percy.
Until something is part of the programming, how can one who is only responding to the email they received know the thread is in summation mode?

I am, as we speak, automating summation mode. A thread in summation mode will only allow a participant one additional message, and it must be a General Reply, not a reply to a specific message.
I'm also implementing access restrictions for threads. Right now member permissions can be controlled only at the forum level. The new capability will allow participation in individual threads to be controlled in one of two ways:
Any thread will be able to have a participant list or a non-participant list, but not both. Moderators will always be able to post or reply to any thread or message, unless the thread is closed. Comments, suggestions welcome.

If that works more power to it.
