Okay. That's pretty fair.
It is?
I don't think so!
As a matter of fact, assuming my reading comprehension is above average, it was (and continues to be) quite the opposite!
Anyway, I sure miss your participation there, Jack (Hoping you might return soon)
I can't repeat specifics of what I saw, but there was a thread where Liz's reference to "Democrats Abroad in Taiwan" and Pahoran's reference to "white Chinese guys" were discussed. A few of the participants seemed excited and/or satisfied at Scratch finally being "outed." I don't recall anyone besides myself expressing doubts over the JE = Scratch identification; maybe Blixa.
I don't plan on returning to Liz's forum. I don't think it would be good for my health. I have no ill will against Liz, and I still think of her as a friend and wish her the best, even if I don't agree with the way she has chosen to run her forum as of late. While I understand the concerns being expressed over her role in trying to "out" Scratch, I think she's a damn fine moderator who has worked hard and generally played fair, and I'm sorry we're losing her (if we are losing her).
Cheers, -Jack

I wish he would never go back to MDD. 'Tis a silly place.
I should have wrote MDb. My bad. He will never come here again under its present format. Too much abuse and no discussion.

I agree with Jack. Of course, I was banned without warning yesterday, so believe me or not.

Thanks, Ms. Jack. I consider you a good friend, too. I am sorry to see you leave my forum, but I do understand that we agree to disagree on my current guest list. You will always be welcome if you decide to return.
Thank you for the kind words regarding my Moderator work. Yes, MDB is losing me as a Moderator, as soon as Shades returns to the board.

Well then neither can I........I guess? (This is odd)

Fair enough (I don't think I ever read or engaged on that thread)
But I can assure you that there is ample expression of doubt being expressed now (I have been a mere one of many)

Typical selfish Evangelical - always concerned with only their health (Did you ever even consider mine when you left?)

I just can't believe Liz would ban Just Me, and let Pahoran stick around. I mean, what further indictment against liz's judgement is needed?
