Does this mean I cannot respond to the topic I was posting on or I get suspended for twenty four hours? No, read it more carefully, it says:

I think we need a little Administrator intervention over in the Induction and Science thread to help bring back some of the sanity. Things are simply flying way too far off topic.

It seems like the sanity will return at such time, Jon, as you begin acting sane.

Is there any point to the Does ID follow the scientific method? thread?
Dawn just posts insults and non-sensical word salad. e.g.Bluejay asked 4 very simple questions. Dawn posts a load of rubbish in response. I suspect it will just go round and around and around...
Dawn Bertot: "I will in this thread prove that A equals B!"Others: "Ok. Go on then." Dawn Bertot: "Why is A not equal to B?" Others: "Aren't YOU meant to be the one showing that A equals B?" Dawn Bertot: "Why are you all avoiding my question?!" Others: "Define what A and B is and maybe we could answer the question." Dawn Bertot: "I have told you already! A = A and B = B!" Others: "That isn't very helpful." Dawn Bertot: "You are a slighted mind!"

I had the same reaction. The thread is now in Free For All for anyone who wants to continue participating.

I had the cleanup done before you got this message posted.
Well, at least it was a bit of board activity. Adminnemooseus

Member feliy000 is offering me 2.5 million via PM.
Can you close her down:
Dearest in the lord,
I am Mrs Felicia.H.Koroma ,from Sierra Leone.I am married to late Mr. Joseph Koroma, who worked with Sierra Leone Embassy in Ivory Coast for Twenty-Six years before he died in the year 2003,after a brief illness that lasted for only five days. We were married for Eighteen years with a duaghter (Edvige) who later died in a motor accident. Before the untimely death of my husband,we were both born again Christians(from Muslim to Christianity). And since after his death I decided not to remarry or get a child outside my matrimonial home which the Bible is against. When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of (US$2.5M )Two Million,Five hundred Thousand United States Dollars) in a General Trust Account with a prime bank in Abidjan Cote d Ivoire.Presently,this money is still with the bank. Following my ill health, being a victim to cancer , I have decided to donate this fund to a Christain organizations (Church or person) that will utilize this fund the way I am going to instruct herein,according to the desire of my late husband. I want this fund to be used in Christain Activities like,Orphanages,Christain schools, and Churches for propagating the word of God and to endeavour that the house of God is maintained.The Bible made us to understand that "Blessed is the hand that giveth". I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are not Christians and I don't want my husband's efforts to be used by unbelievers.I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly way. This is why I am taking this decision. I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I know that I am going to be in the bosom of the Lord. Exodus 14 VS 14 says that "the lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace". I don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health as well the presence of my husband's relatives around me .I don't want them to know about this development. As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the bank here in Abidjan. My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian. Whoever that Wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and Truth. Please always be prayerful all through your life as well commit me into your daily prayers. Contact me on this e-mail addressfeliciakoroma@datafull.com), any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing another Church for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein. Hoping to receive your reply immediately . Remain blessed in the Lord.Sister Felicia Koroma, Avenue 4 Marcory residential 14 bp 211 Abidjan 14 |

AdminPD,
How is this off topic? Message 60.It is a response to Message 58. All I am doing is asking him to do is provide evidence. As you state in your message to him.
This topic is in a science forum, which requires evidence or reasoned argumentation when making your point. Why is my basically stating the same thing off-topic? Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts

quote:It's off topic when I say it as an Admin also, but it's part of my job. That's why I don't have people respond within the thread. You leave it open for people to respond in the thread and derail the thread. To deter michaelrobin or anyone else from addressing your off topic comment of "Not much of a god then is it. Seems to be pretty limited.", which only serves to provoke; I marked yours as off topic. This usually stops people from responding in the thread and hopefully prevents derailment. Since you weren't suspended, what's the problem?

Hi Bolder-dash,
Let me try to explain more clearly this time. This is the only thread where one can raise issues concerning discussion. If you are experiencing problems in a discussion, then this is the place to bring it to the attention of moderators. But moderation itself is not a topic for discussion. If you wish to discuss your issues with the style of moderation here at EvC Forum then you will have to discuss them at some other bulletin board. --Admin Ok, well if you say so: I would contend that you do a very poor job of moderator, but the fact is I don't think you have any intention of moderating, that is not your goal, so in regards to your objective, you do a very thorough job. I don't think the goal of this site is to foster interesting discussion, I think it is simply for you to evangelize your viewpoint and hamstring all others. That is what I wished to discuss-so I guess here is the place for that: .................................................................................................................. I propose a discussion about my theory that there is an utter lack of desire by the sites administrator to actually administer a scientific forum. What I believe is that instead the site simply wishes to be a evolutionist propaganda generating machine, so so many of the other atheistically inspired campaigns in science and media, that wants to monopolize the debate, stifle the scientific argument, control the messages, and create an echo chamber that has the vague 'appearance' of conducting an intellectual discussion simply for the purposes of masking their propaganda like any good marketing con that wants to convince people or sell something. That is my thesis. Evidence for this thesis lies in varying forms of veiled censorship, false advertising, and outrageous moderation that would have make any banana dictator proud. Percy, (the fucking pussy in my opinion , frankly) tries to make people believe that he is interested in encouraging scientific dialogue and interesting thought, when in fact (as he as even explicitly stated in the 'Phil Plait Don't be a Dick thread) his only real motivation in any of these discussion is to come up with the "best strategy for convincing the fence sitters" of the validity of his own evolutionist beliefs. When someone is clearly in the game of trying to force others to believe what they believe, rational discussion and the search for the truth gets thrown out the window-and that is clearly reflected in the administration of this website. We are constantly being told that it is in the best interest of all that wish to be involved in intelligent conversation that 'off topic" comments be limited by the moderators. This is in fact simply a pretext for Percy latest efforts to jump into any discussion anytime his theory looks under threat of being questioned (because once again, we know by his own words that his goal is to convince as many fence sitters as possible, NOT to engage in lively debate or to expand ones knowledge, thinking or viewpoint on a subject). If in fact it were simply a matter of Percy wishing to keep the debates more focused, for one we would see a much more even application of his interruptions and accusations of off topic remarks to both evolutionists and to opposing viewpoints, but the evidence clearly shows this is not the case (which we can get into further). As of late Percy has permanently banned Faith, has given warnings to Dawn, has suspended marc9000, has banned me for a month for something even he can't come up with a valid rationale for, is threatening ICANT, and has now thrown out this beauty to Kaichos Man:
"Why ever in the world would anyone want to begin an extended discussion with you when your history says you abruptly abandon discussions and only participate for at most a couple weeks at a time, the only exception being right after you first joined. The last time I discussed Haldane's Dilemma with you over at the TOE and the Reasons for Doubt thread you ignored my last two responses and then disappeared a short while later. You're raising this concern about Haldane's Dilemma as if it were something we were hiding from, but the fact of the matter is that the last time you brought it up we discussed it with you forthrightly, but you began ignoring responses and then we didn't hear from you again. So no thanks. I'll invest my time with people who actually finish what they begin." Well, Why in the world would Kaichos Man abandon a discussion with you Percy? Perhaps because its not a discussion! You have no intention of having a discussion. It's you telling people what they can and can't say and trying to make it look good for the 'fence sitters"! You asshole. So how can we determine conclusively if this really is a board which encourages lively debate (heck not everything in a discussion is even a debate Percy, you know, some people are not interested in convincing others of their viewpoint, unlike you, they may actually wish to just talk about things, which is what some unsuspecting visitors might think this place was designed for!).? One way would be to see just how far Percy is willing to let people who don't agree with him speak. The more he tries to censor those voices, and argue with them 18 times over every new thread proposal they make that doesn't echo his party line, the more evidence we have for the bullshit intentions of this forum. In fact this entire premise that allowing ''off topic" remarks to continue would destroy his whole forum is a complete canard. There can be valid reason for attempting to keep a level of civil discourse in discussions (something which Percy uses virtually no time trying to monitor, especially when it is directed at his "enemies") , but this whole notion that nothing intelligent can come of letting some conversations go on tangents is again pure bullshit. If its interesting, and scientific, or even just thought provoking, a good moderator would simply let the ideas flow. If the purpose of the site was to actually have an intelligent discussion-which again the evidence will show it clearly its not.So what say you, is this site really about seeking the truth, about inspiring thought, about letting ideas flow, or is it about feeding Percy's goal to have all his fence sitters watch a carefully controlled propaganda machine spin his little schemes while allowing just enough input from a few mild opposing viewpoints to give the (false) impression of an even exchange of ideas. Has the site flourished under Percy's guidance with a wide range of regular contributors who can jump into any discussion and have a go, or has it been squeezed almost dry of anything interesting and lively by Percy's constant interference. Are there more and more interesting and opposing viewpoints coming here to discuss things, or is the side becoming more one sided than ever-a dull repeating of the same evolutionary talking points with no one allowed to effectively challenge any of them, by virtue of the sites moderation monopoly. I think we can all see what has happened to this site over the past year or so (are there any people even left for them to pretend to debate with?), especially recently, to answer that one pretty quickly. Lets just say Percy wouldn't be the first among the so called scientific evolutionary camp to try and control the message through any means necessary, but he certainly is one of the most sleazy and unethical that I have seen. So that's my theory. I would suggest Coffee House or Peanut Gallery as the appropriate forums for this thread so we can have as little moderation interruption as possible. ................................................................................................................. I believe you actually do have an interest in science. Unfortunately I don't feel you are honest enough to just leave it at that. Getting others to believe your worldview is more important to you than any science or intellectual integrity.
