Our board is not about stalking and harassment. Take your unwanted advances elsewhere.

We [sic] have seen too much of your NDE alphabet soup jibberish [sic] and relentless tomfoolery over the decades.

Just STOP! NOW!

No more NDE ... XYZ. No more death. No more talking to stiffs. No more telling posters that they are ignorant.

Any more of this behavior will get you put in time-out.

Just STOP! NOW!

He loves jb’s disruptions at R & E and puts up with him at White Whine…until he doesn’t. Almost makes me a Bauer fan! lol

it is NOT JIBBERISH, nor is talking to Souls of ancestors occult

if you want to run a board based on total ignorance i can't stop you but that would be ALL it would be.

You go, jb! He is definitely running a board based on total ignorance! lolol

Scalese and mongo are in a war of words there (I looked after reading your post here) and tossing out Italian phrases.

Scalese SHOULD tell mongo "Sei un bugiardo pezzo di merda! "

Poppet I think I might have hit the delete button too soon, and it's my fault. Devo has been using a =19.5pxthesaurus to change the words in his posts meaning the same thing as before. This was a knee jerk reaction. I own it.

**Posted by greenman** 12/24/2023 12:13 pm

Well, he’s nothing but a stupid troll, so…

Isn’t he banned through New Year’s?

Devo is a troll who baits. The Ghost thread you deleted was his third exact threadt in recent memory. He changed the word to Spirit to do it again.

**Posted by greenman** 12/24/2023 4:26 pm

Well, as long as people keep feeding him, he’ll keep doing it. Some complain about feeding Bauer; this jackanapes is much worse. He’s as transparent as a newly-washed window.

No worries! I couldn't remember if that particular angle (ghosts, spirits, etc.) had come up before and I thought it was interesting. One of those things that I think might possibly have a basis (albeit a completely natural one) in phenomena we don't fully understand...

I don't really understand what seems to me to be an outsized objection to Devo's one-liner troll posts. Compared to so much other crap on the board, they seem like small potatoes, and are at least nominally on-topic. Beats hell out of yet another thinly-disguised political flamewar...but I guess I'm the odd girl out on that one! ;)

**Posted by greenman** 12/24/2023 7:29 pm

I think both are reprehensible, to be honest. As is banishing people like you’re the Red Queen because of a couple of questionable posts.

I suppose the only solution is to have your own board, though..

I simply ignore all of Devo's posts and the thinly disguised political posts I report a/o point out.

I refuse to feed the trolls. It just makes them hungrier!

Sad to see so-called ‘Christians’ like Born to Farm and Observer trumpeting their superiority to non-Christians as their Boxing Day greeting on Yellow.

You know you have a rally mean-spirited person who doesn’t understand the message of Jesus when they can’t stop touting their beliefs over those who have ‘rejected’ them.

Boils down to whether you’re a good or bad person, not what beliefs you claim…

**Posted by greenman** 12/26/2023 10:30 am

A good example of what I’m talking about
above:

***
Your choice

Posted by BornToFarm on December 26, 2023, 6:36 am, in reply to "Why is it so difficult for far too many Christians to simply speak their piece"

A lot of folks that don't know Jesus have a hard time at Christmas. What is there to celebrate?
[Family, friends, the warmth of people during the holiday (no, not just Xmas), food, fellowship, I could go on and on..]

For some, the mere mention of the name of Jesus and the salvation he offers is so offensive. Again, their choice.[An absolute strawman. Few if any are ‘offended by the mention’ of Jesus or Xmas; most are just tired of smug, self-righteous ‘Christians’ like you lecturing them on your faith.]

So, I won't offer a Merry Christmas, just a hope for a better 2024. [I have a hope that Evangelicals will stop supporting Trump and theocracy in America as we move toward the election in November]

Tiresome twaddle. Glad to see Sia and Trish stepping up and commenting.

**Posted by Trish** 12/26/2023 10:56 am

I was polite, and even provided a non-christian example, so we shall see.

**Posted by Siagiah** 12/26/2023 1:08 pm

Such, pretentious and RUDE idjits don't deserve the niceties of being polite to their crap.

**Posted by Pikes Peak 14115** 12/26/2023 3:36 pm

You can't discuss religion with them. Any differences you might have are YOUR shortcomings.
Among things they have in common is certainty they are right and everybody else is wrong.
Everything is on their terms.
The Dunning Kruger graph accurately describes them. Their confidence in what they believe
they know is far above the actual knowledge they possess, and is the highest confidence
they ever have. If they continue study, their incompetence gradiually rises until it matches
or nearly matches their confidence. That height is considerably lower than the peak of
Mt Stupid on which they sit hurling out judgment, evaluation and opinion dominated by
incompetence.

Remarkably, they seldom leave the summit of Mt. Stupid, to even sense the valley of ignorance, almost unaware a slope of enlightenment even exists. The actual incompetence of their knowledge is farther away from their sense of confidence than it will ever be. They sit there all giddy and confident, judging others telling them what's what, what they don't know, what to do etc.

I am banned from R&E!
First time ever banned anywhere for anything.

I attempted to post a reply to CE0805's remark

You've developed a nasty habit of...

Posted by CE0802 on December 29, 2023, 10:11 am, in reply to "Practices suggested by climate change experts are conservative policy"

...posting crap that isn't in any way germane to the conversation.

A symptom of Long COVID, perhaps.

My attempted response?
Energy resource conservation not germane to climate change mitigation?

When I attempted to preview or post, a prompt came up saying my IP address was permanently banned. There it is.
No warning, no time out, nothing. Warning for what? Challenging rampant, blatant misinformation?

WHAT?? YOU are banned? I was confused by an exchange between you and CE0802/SES where he did his usual apologizing for another and you responded, but figured a comment like "post by INSANE BANNED PERSON removed" couldn't possibly be you, in spite of your response seeming to be that person... ???

Ken doesn't ban folks without email notification or calling someone out by name as banned on the board. Are you SURE that he banned YOU?

Sometimes, IPs are close to others and wind up accidentally banned. I hope that's the case because that's just TOTALLY wrong!

**Posted by Siagiah** 12/30/2023 12:01 am

I questioned it...

https://mb.boardhost.com/ReligionAndEthics/msg/1703912322.html

DID you REALLY ban Pikes and refer to him as an "insane banned person" ???

Posted by Sia on December 29, 2023, 8:58 pm, in reply to "(Post by insane banned person removed by admin)"

Because his IP is apparently banned and he never received notice, warning, or any emails about it.

WTF?

I am not that person. Insane banned person or whatever.
That is someone else, who signed in under an alias.
I used an alias once, as a one time thing to demonstrate
how easy that was.Once, in one post, in N years of participation.
This is my only post in that thread

https://mb.boardhost.com/ReligionAndEthics/msg/1703895829.html

It is my IP address that is banned. Surely that is a mistake?
I bet there is some mad scrambling going on right about now.
Might be some whoopin and hollerin in a few places too.

Nope.
Not yet.
Still in a shock.
I know mistakes happen.
This must be one.
When you ban somebody, you have to cross t's and dot i's with care to make certain
everything is correct.
We know by experience, there is just one reason things go awry and amiss
so rapidly over there. Ken and Trish are literally run ragged in effort to clean
up the many messes, in a thankless, unpaid job. We solved that problem.

I just emailed Ken and Trish. I hate having to do that.

If he applied himself to learning something with the veracity of his harassment,
he might be a formidable and challenging intellect. I might describe his tenacity
to hold onto self demeaning harassment opportunity comparable to a bulldog
ant, aka a jackjumper. However the ants have a purpose and a sting.

Well, the admins are not kicking your worthless, smug, hypocritical, dishonest, disinformation-filled ASS off the board, certainly. As I would..

‘Offensive and verbally abusive’ should be your nick.
