ZZTroll is now an ET moderator by proxy. Let this stand?

  1. ZZZzzzzzzz has ruined the whole chit-chat forum.

    17 posts per day from a deranged lunatic. Hope you're happy Baron.

  2. This is a riot.

    Can you say "conformity issues?"

    So what do we see? So called Libertarians trying to exercise control and conformity over an ET forum.

    So the ignore button doesn't work for them? Oy vey.

    Several decades ago, Howard Cosell came on TV in a big way on Monday Night Football.

    People hated him. Hated him. Hated him.

    But did they watch?

    Yes, yes, yes!!! They wouldn't miss the chance to sit in front of their TV so that they could bitch, whine, and moan about Howard. They didn't change the channel, they didn't turn on the sound, they were glued to the tube, just hoping that they would get their hate fix from listening to Howard.

    Why is it that people here don't just hit the ignore button? If you hate something, why keep reading it?

    Why is that Pabst threatens to leave E.T. if a member is not banned, then doesn't leave E.T. when the member is not banned? Then when he doesn't get his way, he gets so angry with the truth that he didn't not keep his word, that he goes off Islamic terrorist style and threatens to cut off an ET member's head?

    Why is it that the right wingers are the ones who are trying to play politics on this one, as they endlessly practice the uniform hatred of Arabs and other groups, uniform claims that those who are liberal are mentally deranged etc.....yet can't seem to handle hitting the ignore button on a member they don't want to read?

  3. ZZZ, many of us have had you on ignore. Unfortunately, since you post so often and you infect every thread with your political drivel, it becomes almost impossible to follow.

  5. btw, Z... on the thread that Reardon cited above, you seemed to make a mistake in interpretation of the chart which formed the basis for discussion there... the mistake was an innocent one. It was pointed out to you, but then you started a bizarre series of posts in which you continued to claim that your original interpretation was correct, even though it was clear that it was an innocent mistake. I asked you in another thread to clarify your position on this - did you ever post a retraction?

    Also, there are some other questions that remain outstanding, including questions about your evocation of images on Nazi Germany and your subsequent denial of the suggestion that the use of the phrase 'Goose-steppers' in reference to your political opponents was an example of such an evocation.

    Also, we were wondering about your change of heart regarding your use of the phrase 'magistrates materialized out of pure potentiality', which you used in the ID thread. In a subsequent thread, you seem to disavow your statement that the origin of humans on earth is the process of 'magistrates (being) materialized out of pure potentiality'. Did you have a change of heart with regard to this statement?

    There are quite a few other questions that remain - could you link us to your response to any of these issues? And if you have not provided such a response, then how are we to assess your posts here on ET? Is it debate you are looking for or are you doing what RM claims you are doing - that is, simply posting material that you know will get a reaction, for the sake of getting that reaction? I guess the question is, do you believe in any of the things you say, and if you do, then why will you not respond to calmly stated challenges to those beliefs? Are you willing to debate, or are you using ET as some sort of personal pulpit?

    Thanks, Nik

    Ok, here's an idea for you, Baron:

    Why not simply check if ZPest's trolling and resinate's 'moderating' is <b>coming from the same ip address?</b>

    At least then you'll know whether ZTroll is moderating by proxy, or if he's been given the keys, and is moderating directly.

    Care to check?

  7. Anyone that hangs out in LIVE chat knows that Zz and resinate are tight.

    RM,

    I know Resinate personally. I will eat my own feces if Resinate is Z10.

    res and z10 simply see eye to eye on politics.

  9. What did you do with the mod privileges that resinate let YOU "borrow" the other day?

  10. You misunderstand. I don't think they're the same person, I think resinate may have given the troll his login password to use as it pleases.
