"Several people chose to leave after the site rules were fairly enforced with clear explanations. One of those people (not chockfull) chose to libel me on multiple platforms because I refused to let him use this site to libel and slander other people who aren't even participants here."
IIRC, that was the first person (not chocfull, the other person) who left and gave a lot of static of late. (There have always been a few people- hardcore for vpw or for some pet cause- that left in a huff and vented about the GSC.) Nobody knows this, but.... Not sure the best way to handle that person, I went to a different messageboard (completely unrelated) where I knew a moderator who was the same age as that person. I outlined the situation (without specifics on the board and the group, so, anonymously) and asked for advice on how to address the situation. I pointed out that the solution didn't seem to suggest itself from this end- the group and so on- so I was looking for some insight from someone of his generation. He gave me some general advice I thought sounded sensible and possibly useful. I thanked him and came back here. That person had already left here in high dudgeon. Oh, well. I did try. I don't think there were any easy answers there.
Just visiting one more time to say I’m modifying my original premise. Yes Christian posters are tolerated here.
But after completely dishonest exchange with RAF who you can see his vomit all over this post including evaluating other posters like he has any real authority at all, I will just state I will never participate again on this site as long as RAF is a mod.
The only other mod is his buddy who protects him.
RAF also sent a personal F off message complete with how he feels privately and I’m not permitted to post it here so his true colors remain hidden.
Sorry to all still in the Way cult sorry to those who could still be helped sorry to all other posters.
I am way past my dealings with cults to accept an unlevel playing field for discussion so I’m leaving.
Yes RAF chased off more than one person from this site which should objectively end his mod run but it doesn’t.
so add 1 to your body count while you take your Pulitzer and shove it up ur where sun doesn’t shine.
chockfull isn't one of my favorite people, and we haven't seen eye to eye on some subjects, but I'm sorry to see him go regardless. But that's up to chock, not me. I do disagree on a few things.
1- It's obvious there's at least 3 active moderators here. chock would be off by 1 even if he was correct.
2- Raf and I have been friends since high school. Raf would never have heard of twi without me. (Sorry, dude.) We have been friends, on and off, over the decades. I'm confident I'm who he meant as "his buddy." I've posted and pm'ed people- like Raf and chock- with my opinions. To say I "protect" Raf is an exaggeration. I think it's more accurate to say that we hold each other to a higher standard, since we know each other and don't tolerate so much bs like we would most posters. I'm a more stringent critic of him, and Raf's well aware of it. If one of us crosses a line, the other is most likely to be the one to call him on it. But at the same time, we're rather PRECISE in our criticism, in how far is too far and how far is almost too far. (Other people tend to get more leeway there.)
3- chockfull and Raf had it out privately. I don't feel it's appropriate to get into their private quarrels.
4- If I really thought there was an unlevel playing field, I would have taken off. I still reserve the right to do so if it happens.
5- I know of people who got obnoxious and stormed off. Chased off by Raf? At best, an exaggeration.

Yeah Allan, I see your point. The same talk some accused others of, they are actually doing it. I don't let it bother me anymore. Just ignore it best you can.

These abrasive posters... are they the ones who accuse those who disagree with them of having massive egos, seeing the word through sh!t-colored glasses, or being responsible for Satan's takeover of A
