Zakuska has started a thread over at MADB about how the CARM mods are biased. I find this amusing, given MADB's record. Here are a few of the comments from that thread:
Mormon Factor wrote:Oh, and they are now protesting the fact that some people have quoted them on this board.
Mormon Factor wrote:You know, I got suspended from CARM for having a signature line that they told me was 'divisive and inflammatory'. SO they booted me for it. But what is worse is they had already known that my signature was just a bunch of little quotes from the very anti-LDS CARM posters!!!!

Besides, they aren't afraid to admit that they have double standards when it comes to Christian vs. LDS. (In fact that was a quote from one of their members I had as my sig for a while).
CARM isn't FAIR... why does that sound so darn familiar?

CARMella is in a tizzy because Tanyan posted an email from her here - but on CARM before they removed pm'ing abilities- they used to read them.
Frankly, I think they are a sick and twisted group of paranoid people and the extremes they appear to go to and the anger that appears to be festering in many of them is not healthy - at all; mentally, emotionally or physically.

Like "Antis"?

I agree completely. It's their playground. I just find it very Ironic.
People only dislike Moderators when they are deciding against them. In the case of MAD vs CARM mods, two groups who are very biased, it's frankly irritating to see two groups of people who are very over protected by Moderation on their home boards to be bitching about moderation on another board.

Heh - every time Zak would say it was "ironic", I would giggle to myself. It was so, well, ironic. He could have been describing the MADB moderating exactly.
by the way - does anybody know who Jessicka was over there on MADB, and why she was banned?

Jessicka was one of my sock puppets. I'm assuming they thought it was a sock puppet for somebody, because I don't see that I broke any rules with what I was posting. In fact, aside from the "rape" thread I started a couple weeks back, I didn't have much of an impact at all over there, so I'm not sure how I got on their radar....
Oh well. My other sock puppets seem to be doing just fine, so no biggie.

I was actually kinda wondering if it was yours, based on some comments you'd made earlier here.
Now you'll have the MADB mods scrambling to see which other puppets are yours. Cool.

Yeah....right....no testimonies? Say it ain't so!

That was a picture of a chick actually named Jessicka. She used to be the singer for Jack Off Jill, and now she sings for Scarling. She's a total hottie.
But I was afraid some young, cultured person over there might recognize her, and I didn't want to bring any attention to myself, so I took it down.
