Recommended reading: The "Change in Moderation?" topic
The issues currently being discussed are not new. Many relevant good messages already exist. I encourage all, and especially the newer members, to go back and read from the beginning the "Suggestions and Questions" topic that is the precursor to this topic.
You don't need to go all the way through message 302 there, but I do suggest at least perhaps the first 100 messages.
Change in Moderation.

Re: Double Standards - Faith
I am beginning to think that the way this forum is working right now is completely fair. Although the those on the evo side are held to a higher standard, the overwhelming majority of the people that have been permanently banned were those from the creo side. Off the top of my head, I can only name 2 people from the evo side that were banned permanently. One claimed to be a rocket scientist and the other claimed to be a physicist. You know who I'm talking about.

Re: Double Standards - Faith
Unless I've missed something (like a ban or a suspension) - why are we operating very obvious double standards in regards to faith?
Every other post involves calling someone an idiot or a fool, why are we holding atheists to higher standards ?
What's the explanation?
Alas, alas. Nobody has noticed that the straight-out insults began when I decided to LEAVE this place, my parting benedictions on the whole scene as it were. They are completely intentional, completely in my control. The indulgence of the insults by Admin began at that point in order to keep me here. I guess being a Fundy YEC I'm rare enough for someone to want to keep me around and put up with the insults long enough to set me up to abuse me properly when the time comes. But I have no motive to stay around any more except for the amusement this latest gambit has occasioned.

Re: Double Standards - Faith
I must say that I really don't like how violent your avatar is.
I understand the "meaning", but I really don't like watching someone get shot in the back of the head over and over again.

Actually, there are more creos than evos around. Because of the high standards this forum has, the majority of the creos that stumble into this site from time to time often find themselves challenged by real genuine scientists who actually knew more than 2 words from a high school biology text book.

I really don't think that you got the short end of the insult stick here, faith.
You gave out a lot more in terms of invective and sheer volume of abuse than you ever received.
A lot more.

I'm sure it felt like that to you the ONE time I let you have it after putting up for ages with your Chinese torture methods of refusing to acknowledge a simple point I was making while insisting on holding me to a perfectly inane standard of your own. But I can't expect you to see things from my point of view.

This is exactly the kind of rude crap creos are greeted with here. If you want a certain standard of scientific knowledge then establish that standard and don't admit anyone who doesn't meet it, instead of attacking people for their efforts. This is uncivilized behavior, and actually, from what I've seen of many creo posts here, completely unwarranted. This is just a typical piece of evo arrogance.

MUST READ - Time for all of you to stop it (OFFICIAL WARNING MESSAGE)
Everyone - Quit the sniping back and forth. Nothing good is or will be coming from it (other than maybe give me ideas that the participants might all need suspensions). WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!
I also still recommend the reading of the cite in message 121.
Going to close this topic for a while. Any real, worthy comments will need to wait for it's reopened. MEANING: DON'T START A NEW GRIPE TOPIC - Doing such WILL induce a suspension.
