Ken now permitted to edit
There has been recent massive discussion in various topics, of things kendemyer.
Ken's editing privileges had been taken away for good reason. In the framework of recent happenings, however, I don't see how his having editing privileges could hurt things, and it just might help.
Translation - IMO Ken's messages have been so bad that any editing at any time could only help. That said - Ken, it would be nice if you would do quality messages the first attempt, and not get "edit happy".
Ken's current posting privilege status summary:
Restricted to "Boot Camp", "Suggestions and Questions", and "Proposed New Topics". The "PNT", however, is moot since Ken is not allowed to start new topics.

Re: Ken now permitted to edit (NOW IF HE WOULD ONLY...)
...USE THE MESSAGE SPECIFIC REPLY BUTTON!!!
Ken, use the reply button at the bottom of the message you are replying to.
I am inclined to think that further failure on your part to do such is cause to deem you an idiot that should be suspended.
I know you can't here reply to this message. No need to reply anyway.
JUST USE THE MESSAGE SPECIFIC REPLY BUTTON, WHEN YOU ARE REPLYING TO A SPECIFIC MESSAGE!
Now getting into the cranky mode,

Bump etc. - Ken now has topic proposing privileges
I've now also expanded Ken's privileges to include starting new topics. Any such must be processed through the Proposed New Topics forum.
Ken - You better use your topic starting privileges very carefully. Flood the "PNT" (and I mean more than 2) and you will be suspended. So choose you "PNT"'s carefully. Remember, "PNT" topics are reviewed prior to release, so you better do reasonable quality message 1's, or they will never go further than the "PNT".
Since you seem to love to post long lists of links, I suggest you propose a topic aimed at the "Links and Information" forum. I guess if you do such, your posting privileges could also be expanded to include that forum, so you could add to you listings. Suggested title - "Ken DeMyer's lists of links".
Don't intreprete these various expansions of your privileges as being that the admins are caving in to your demands. Rather, IMO, these expansions are set ups to permit you a last chance to make a showing that you're worth having around. Post quality on-topic messages.
At the moment, you continue to ride the razors edge between non-suspension and suspension.
Don't whine to me or any of the other admins. It will not help your cause.
Adminnemooseus
ps: Remember to use that message specific reply button.

Ken given a short term suspension (reply button impaired)
quote:
USE THE MESSAGE SPECIFIC REPLY BUTTON, WHEN YOU ARE REPLYING TO A SPECIFIC MESSAGE!
Acknowledged requests are not having any real effect.
Ken is short term suspended to give him some time to think "I will use the specific message reply button, when replying to a specific messages".
I will be away from my computer for at least 8 hours. Other admins are welcome to lift Ken's suspension if and when they feel it is proper. If and when restored, all three of the options should be checked "yes".

Those who would like to see Ken return could post to Creationist Admins (not here, this is an announcements thread)
Actually, I think the only threads we forbid member replies in are those with "{MESSAGES BY ADMIN ONLY)" in the titles.
I think this is the prefered topic for any comments regarding Ken's suspension.

ps: I just want to see what that looks like backwards -

Re: Advocates for Ken Unite!
I think Ken showed ample evidence that he is unwilling to work within the system.
It seems he thought we were privileged to have his presence, and that he should be able to do anything he wanted, in any forum.
Sad to say, but I think a fair bit of the various admins tolerances towards Ken was that, in his own twisted way, he was entertaining. But still highly disruptive to real debate/discussion.
For Ken to exist here, we would need a special branch to the "Boot Camp" - Not that it's going to happen, but I was thinking "Twilight Zone" forum. Or maybe the "Entertainment Zone".

Yes, it's Ken again
charlesdarwin has been suspended, and his e-mail address has been banned.
Absolutely no sympathy,
