    You don't trust Ct sources

    I don't trust faith-based speculation - from wherever. That there's mountains of the same in CT sites isn't my fault - if CT sites actually decided to work from an evidencial basis, then it would be a different story.

    Your insults won't work on me. I'm not ashamed of what I believe, which is what you and people like you try so desperately to achieve. You mock those that get close to the truth so they appear foolish.

    People like me? What am I like then?
    And don't you agree mods should be fair and objective?

    Yekah's and The Recliner, after reading this thread I can only say, hard f*cking luck! Next time you'll know to say "NO!". :D

    Why delete the videos if you're so honest and up front? Surely you have nothing in your past you wish to hide? Yeah, I love your honesty alright. The problem with you people is you arrogance. You think we can't see through your facade. Well, I can.

    Perhaps, because I like that I have a certain amount of privacy? I don't want to have people knowing what I look and sound like. Is that not fair?

    Also, my patience is running thin with your insults. If you have genuine grievances with my appointment, you are welcome to bring them forth and myself and the other mods and admins will certainly listen. However insults are only going to get you one thing.

    I find a lot of the ideas in this forum facinating and i like to read them.

    But i try not to get into the discussions. And why is this? This is because there are a lot of people like Demonspawn here.

    Everything is a conspiracy. And if i agree with 99% of your theory but not 1% of it? "YOU'RE IN ON IT!"

    In this thread, Demonspawn has come across incredibly irrational and this happens quite a lot in threads, here some people have pre-conceived ideas and REFUSE to listen to anyone.

    And sometimes they get childish and react like petulant kids if they don't get their own way (which happened here with the terrible and unwarrented personal abuse).

    I'm hoping the new mods can clean the place up a bit and those like myself will not be discouraged from contributing!

    Probably because I steer clear of the tedious 9-11 threads you're so partial to. There is a whole world of CT's outside that subject. I've also been posting on this particular forum longer than you, so i'll forgive you for missing things.

    Your posting history tells a different story.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,627 ✭✭✭uprising2


    Yes I feel like I am part of the furniture in this forum already :)

    Yea the doormat so far, haha, only joking don't get all jumpy with the ban button.

    Welcome, I have no idea who you are but I'm sure I'll soon find out.

    I didn't mean purely stuff from CT sites, you know that I mean.

    Glazers Out!

    What? Privacy on a Youtube account with your exact same username? All I had to do was Google it and your Youtube channel came up. Go on, pull the other one again. I wonder what else I can find with your username.

    I bet your patience is running thin. Nobody likes to be exposed for what they are, do they? You better ban me before I uncover some other dark secrets about you. Not like that will help though, better get your buddy DeVore to block my ip.

    Alistair an Nullzero, knock off the digs at each other.

    As Bonkey said in the first post we are looking for ways to improve the forum and pehaps amend the charter. As the new mod here, I'd like to be an integral part of that. The best way of getting things changed is to stop and compose a suggestion of what aspect of the charter you would change, and how you would like it to be applied, rather than attacking each others posting styles.

    Like your 9/11 superthread suggestion Nullzero. Its a good idea and, if we could expand on what exactly we want, I could get working on it tomorrow.

    Wouldn't surprise me if every mod on here was a Freemason. Notice how they all run to support each other when one is criticized. It happens all over this site.

    I wonder if demonspawn is in the freemasons and engaging in undercover anti-propaganda. You know, make the "everyone is in the freemasons!" people look like they're crazy, so nobody will accuse anyone of being in the freemasons.

    I'm heading out soon Yekahs, but I'll try and give you a few ideas before I go.
    As for the spat with Alastair, I Pm'd him asking him to continue the "discussion" privately, I'm still awaiting a reply.

    Glazers Out!



  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,460 ✭✭✭demonspawn


    Oh my Yekahs, seems you're all over the Google talking about atheism. Seems there's a lot more to you than meets the eye.

    Great job trying to spread misinformation and turn the suspicions on me. Typical tactic really, you should try harder.

    Hello

    It seems to have escaped some people's attention but I have also been made Mod :)

    I don't post very often here but I do lurk a lot

    I have seen mention above of the charter being implemented equally for both sides all I can say is that from my point of view is that it will

    Abuse is abuse and I wont tolerate it no matter which side of the discussion it comes from

    Having been around a while I am not afraid to ban people for misbehaving but hopefully I wont have to do to much of that if people can be civil to each other

    Welcome to forum:) I have a question if you don't mind seen as though you dont post here that often why do you want to moderate this forum and what will you bring to the position?

    As an occasional lurker of this forum, I would just like to state my belief that demonspawn is one of the worst posters on the entire website. His behaviour in the Barry Jennings thread was laughable, childish and frankly pathetic. The way he has responded to the new moderators is also really quite sad.

    demonspawn only serves to give conspiracy theorists a bad name.

    Congratulations to the new moderators.

    What has that got to do with anything?
    Seriously, should we drag up your posts about mental breakdowns?
    Or were they part of the undercover disguise? :eek:
    Are you vetting yekah's application for freemasonry? That why you're so concerned about him being an atheist?


  • Registered Users Posts: 19,309 ✭✭✭✭alastair


    I'd like to see more exposure of the Rotarians - the real puppetmasters behind the Freemasons.

    See the subliminal UFO, the pentangle arms and the vicious lizard teeth on the magical wheel? The day of reckoning is coming soon.

    Yup, more insults and character assassination. They all crawl out of the woodwork like so many wood lice. Keep it rolling.

    Yekahs personally I welcome you with open arms. You must be the only openly (would-be) freemason that moderates a CT forum in the history of the internet. However, I definitely support your appointment.

    Demonspawn - I think you and yekahs may have got off on the wrong foot, thats all. Yekahs is alright in my experience

    I dont think it would be an unreasonable request if you werent (sorry something weird happens when I press the apostrophe key) able to ban-lock-delete threads that have a relevance to freemasonry?

    The Recliner, apart from being an economics mod would I be correct in assuming you would be part of the "boardsie" clique? What interest do you have in the forum? 7000 odd posts and none that I recall seeing here?

    And to whoever made the decision they must try to understand the scepticism at the appointments from certain quarters here.

    Consistently, but especially recently conspiracy theory advocates have been subjected to a torrent of abuse that has essentially gone unpunished, which has led to a free for all. I am strongly of the view that it flys under the radar because it is a litany of sly digs that are aimed at a group to which the moderators dont belong. Therefore they are not conscious of the insults.

    Like nullzero has said there will be no CT forum if things are allowed to continue they way they are.


    3 (and I only assume four) out of the four mods on a CT forum are skeptics, makes no sense to me and cant happen by accident.

    Why not add a 5th to the team?

    Not a conspiracy theorist but I think mynameisurl would be ideal.

    What about a moderate CT guy for mod too?
    What about nullzero?
    wakeup?
    Ireland Spirit?
    Torax?
    squod?

    Squod the mod even has a nice ring to it. I can understand why you wouldnt have someone like uprising or myself, but cant think of single reason (assuming theyd accept) why they wouldnt be a better choice than the recliner chap, (nothing personal).

    Best thread in ages:D

    And I thought it was going to be about nu-mullet haircuts and skinny jeans.

    To expose this guy as a liar and a fraud,
    Now I get it!
    You're in the freemasons and you don't want an atheist to join!

    I mean if you weren't, you'd be happy he's an atheist because then he couldn't be a member of the freemasons.
    So you must be one.
