Gee, nice to be mentioned, even if only in an obituary!
His graph seems accurate, seems to track the decline in messages posted. It would be interesting to see a graph that went all the back to 2001.
Any guesses as to the creationist he quotes who says he was banned? Sounds like ForEverYoung, except that he's not suspended anymore.

Re: There is a follow-up posting at questionevolution.blogspot.com
Wow! It seems that not only are they aware of EvC Forum, they're monitoring us! I'm flattered!
If I were a verbal type person I wouldn't be managing a discussion board. If you're a fan of garbled syntax, if you thought Bush (either one) was a great orator, if you like words like "uh" and "um", then I'm your man!
If they'd like to participate in written debate they're welcome to come here. They can even think of it as a way to prove their claim that creationists who win debates here are banned.

Conservapedia Debate and Moderator
Hi Conservapedia,
In case some of you are interested in debate here, we're always looking for creationist moderators, and if anyone there is interested and has a discussion board history (just so we can be sure it's someone with a moderator temperament), then your own moderator could help out in the Conservapedia debate threads.
Give the Forum Guidelines a read, then give the Moderator Guidelines a read, too.
--Percy

Well, if it's really Ken then he hasn't been here since 2004. His account is set to inactive, but of course that's under the member's control. If he wants to make his account active again he need only visit his profile page.

Debate Offer Correction
I was just sent a PM pointing out that I misinterpreted the origin of the comments about EvC Forum. It looks like they were originally posted at the Question Evolution Campaign Blog, then reposted in part over at Conservapedia.
Anyway, the debate offer still stands. We're always on the lookout for qualified creationists to fill a moderator role here.

There are 9 creationist suspensions and 17 evolutionist suspensions, and it was only that close because of ForEverYoung, a prolific repeat offender who was eventually indefinitely suspended, though he was later reinstated (and now says that EvC Forum is the most unbiased site he's ever encountered on the Internet - just kidding ).
AbE: I forgot the other reason we'll never see this posted over at the Question Evolution Campaign Blog - they don't have table codes! Aw, poor Question Evolution Campaign Blog.
--Percy
AbE_2: It was pointed out that Artemis Entreri was not a creationist, so I have corrected the above.

P.S: checking your figures, I think you must be counting Artemis as a creationist. I don't think he was. A theist, yes; a creationist ... not to my knowledge.
I did classify Artemis Entreri as a creationist, but my recollection was that his views weren't neatly classifiable. But I didn't think he was an evolutionist, so I called him a creationist. Would you say that's too misleading? He certainly seemed to have his biggest disagreements with evolutionists.
Moose chided me via PM for often not recording my moderator actions, and he's right, but Moose would often post a note for me. But it would be accurate to state that the Suspensions and Bannings Part III is not a complete record. It's on my list to keep an automated record of moderator actions.

Oh and let's not forget, I am suspended indefinitely from the biology forums...
I looked up why you lost your posting permissions in the Biological Evolution forum, and apparently Message 305 was the last straw:
Bolderdash writes:
I have to tell you, that although Dr. A might be wrong about a lot of things, some would probably even fairly say virtually everything, he does happen to be this site's foremost authority on looking like a conceited *****.
I.d.i.o.t*
As I recall, you were at the time trying to raise moderation issues in science threads, and by the time I removed your permissions in the Biological Evolution forum you had already done this in several other threads. I restored your permissions some time ago.
There are a couple places where one may raise moderation issues. One is the Report Discussion Problems Here 3.0 thread where you can report discussion issues, and the other is an unmoderated thread where moderation issues can be discussed at length, General Discussion Of Moderation Procedures (aka 'The Whine List'). If you keep your posts mostly on-topic in the science and religion threads then moderators will have little cause to modify your permissions or issue temporary suspensions.
Each member has a list of censored words. For most members this list is empty, but apparently you were too free in your use of some words while being personal and uncivil to other members, and so they were added to your list. At the present time it contains these words and their close relatives:
stupid
illiterate
insane
lying
moron
lie
dumb
idiot
asshole
retard
fuck
shit
hypocrite
You are not the only member with a non-empty censored word list. For example, Jar also has a non-null list.
