No. I'm quite certain that Infymus's e-mail exchanges were posted to SHIELDS quite a while before he began participating here.

Hmm. Is the reason you asked that question because his real name was posted at SHIELDS? I don't know if they posted it or not, and I'm too lazy to hunt it down--did they?


Yes, they did post it. Ray tried to berate me on the basis of my posting of DCP's emails, but he (i.e., DCP) did the same thing at SHIELDS:

I have wondered whether they "outed" him or not. Ray is convinced that Infymus "outed" himself, but, of course, Ray hasn't offered up any real evidence.

I'd have to look into this, Infymus' name is on his website also, but I don't know how long he's been using his real name there. Maybe he would like to clarify.

Gee, thanks for finally caving on this one, Ray. Having integrity suits you well.

I found Daniel's posting of his emails with Susie Q. He originally had her name in the email too and removed it when she pitched a fit about it.

We hate to seem like we don’t trust every nut with a story, but there’s evidence we can point to, and dance while shouting taunting phrases.

Yes, I believe that Ray's attempts at attacking me on the basis of my posting of DCP's emails was seriously misguided. The whole of SHIELDS, as I have discussed elsewhere, is really a nasty, juvenile, utterly humorless and disgusting piece of work.

Now you talk about my hyperbole. I think SHIELDS would have a similar opinion of your writing, so you're square, but as far as I'm aware, they don't take you seriously. You're yet to rank among significant anti-Mormons they pay attention to, so I guess in that sense finding out who you are isn't important to them, as yet.

Infymus obviously emailed DCP with his real name on the email. We know a lot about Infymus's background and experiences in Mormonism, as it's all on his site. When you emailed DCP, was your real name on the emails?

Are you really this ignorant? SHIELDS has practically been defunct for months now. Get with it, man.

Then why does it say "updated 14 Nov. 2007". That's less than two weeks ago.

You can even apply for "update notification". Of course, I could be imagining all this.

Wow! What a stunning counter!

Give me a break, Ray. One tiny update on 11/14/2007 hardly counts as "major activity." They update the site very seldom. It is practically defunct.

You could say the same for Infymus' site, but I doubt he'd say his site was "defunct". My real blog (not the one here) is now also "practically defunct" (to use your term), but it is going to be revived, albeit in a different form. Defunct sites don't offer updates - at all.
