Juliann Gets Her Comeuppance Over On MD&D
Posted: Wed Jun 21, 2017 4:45 pm
For those who do not read over on MD&D, Juliann started a thread titled: "Are cynical critics driving away Mormons?". where she basically controlled the thread by removing or banning any posters who disagreed with her (and was very nasty about anyone trying to enter HER thread).
Well, a poster named ALarson came on who hasn't been a presence there for quite a while and posted yesterday on her thread. He expressed what many over there would like to post, but are afraid to because of fear of being banned or are just plain afraid of Juliann and the other mods. I guess his post was almost immediately removed, then it came back, then it was removed again.
Here's ALarson's post and it is well worth reading as it completely nailed Juliann over on MD&D and her behavior:
"I haven't posted her for quite a while for different reasons. But I do still read on here and keep up with most of the threads. Here's my take on this thread:
- juliann seems to feel she is more important or has more to say with what goes on here than most others on this forum. She treats others in a way that most members would be banned for doing (at least thread banned). She is more disrespectful and rude than I have ever personally seen any nonbeliever treat another on this board.
- She either owns this board or is a moderator here or she is personally acquainted with whoever is, and is able to get other posters banned at will. Then she laughs or mocks anyone who infers that she's a mod here.
- If she does own this board, she should continue doing what she's currently doing, as she will end up with the board she seems to want. If she does not own this board, maybe she should take her avid followers (who like nearly every single one of her posts as soon as it's posted) and start her own board where she can create an environment where it's allowed to treat those she deems deserving with rudeness and open disdain without any consequences. However, it appears she's already allowed to do this here, so I go back to wondering why this is being allowed if she is not the owner or a moderator.
- There are many posters here and a full spectrum of beliefs and opinions. That's what makes it interesting to read and why there can be some really good and lively discussions at times. Even the great majority of non-believers (or Mormons, but not good enough Mormons according to juliann) are great people and are civil in discussions. But if she's trying to silence any who disagree with her, she appears to have the power to do so (a great example is the banning of Stem here and then the closing of his thread where he attempted to continue discussing it since he couldn't here).
- juliann does not discriminate who she chooses to attack especially if she can accuse them of sexism or racism and it appears she is able to do this with almost every topic she enters.
I'd imagine I'll be punished for this post, but it's my honest appraisal. I think this board has taken a turn for the worst since juliann reappeared and started posting much more often. The entire tone and feel of the board has changed over these last months and every thread she enters involves contention and rudeness after she enters them. I hope there's a solution here, but a one sided discussion isn't the way to resolve it, in my opinion."
