Then one of the mods (I'm pretty sure it was Momus) chimed it and told Hammer to shut up and be supportive since said mod knew how hard it was to quit smoking. Do a search there, if you want; I can't.

So Momus could be an ex-smoker. As if that helps.


I have seen enough evidence at this point to be persuaded that Momus---at least in this instance---was juliann. Bro. Schryver may say otherwise, but, as we all know, Schryver has been known to lie. (Isn't that right, Chozah?)

And, since I actually like Julie and don't believe that she should be engaging in the kind of self-indulgence this obsession of yours provides for her, I'm afraid I'll have to burst your bubble and let you know that Juliann has not been a moderator since the board changed from FAIR to MA&D.

But if it floats your boat to believe otherwise ...................... carry on.


I don't believe you. Maybe we have a different definition of "moderator" or something. It's plain that Juliann edits and scolds in red text, at least to control her own threads. As limited as that may be, I call that moderating.

It is nowhere near as simple as Will seems to believe while reclining in the comfort of his apparent ignorance. He isn't aware of the status of the debate, so he wouldn’t know anything about that. I don’t think Will has the remotest clue of “the issues”. He's parroting the talking points he's learned by rote in the graduate school of MAD moderation.

Yeah right.

Dunamis has made a return since the FAIRboards became MAD.....who else would have control over Dunamis besides Juliann?

(Leaving aside the other moderating sockpuppets that seem to exist on MAD that Juliann probably also can control)

Well, I realize you're joking, but, yeah, that would wig me out, Nephi. That would be, well, obsessive. Not to mention illegal and really uncool.

I have a hard time believing that. One of the mods ridiculed me by publicly sharing information I had shared in private with Juliann.

Well there were a few comments the Mod made to me that seemed odd to me.

I hate to try to recall what she/he said but it was something akin to "A self proclaimed heathen telling us how to be a Christian makes me wet myself from all the giggles." and something about that being "lame".. and other stuff.

My sense was that it was someone NOT very good at making jibes or nasty swipes. The Mod seemed to be incapable of making really good, pointed barbs. That's why I didn't attribute it to Juliann. Or maybe that's why I should? Not sure.

Again, why do I care?

At least you guys can read sarcasm and things of that sort in posts here. I got chewed out for playing devil's advocate over there just because I wanted the OP to prove their point.

I wasn't banned until after the board became MAD.

Did you mean to write...."I wasn't banned until after the board went MAD?"
