MDDB has lost all credibility and control...

The catch-all forum for general topics and debates. Minimal moderation. Rated PG to PG-13.

That's because they're not using LDS principles to moderate it like, ironically, this board is.

I'm not sure if I'm flattered or appalled.


You should be flattered. LDS principles are the principles of success.

Some, yes. Certainly not all. From either direction.

Professor Hamblin opened a new thread with the following post:

Junta! Junta! Junta! Junta!

Schryver advised how to pronounce junta and provided a definition.

The thread has been locked.

Yes, his obvious affront to MDDB was locked.

But notice that the thread was not locked for the affront that it is, the thread was locked not because Hambone dared MDDB to ban him, nay, MDDB punted and locked the thread because it had "no apparent purpose".

It is pathetic how much power and control hambone, DCP, and schryver have over that board.

All pigs are equal on this farm, except the special pigs.
About Joseph Smith.. How do you think his persona was influenced by being the storyteller since childhood? Mastering the art of going pale, changing his voice, and mesmerizing his audience.. How do you think he was influenced by keeping secrets and lying for his wife and the church members for decades?

That the BYU adminstration would excercise such control.
