Actually Derefined, I've never seen any of the material in question.

So your filthy imagination merely speaks out the the abundance of your heart.

I'm not sure how or why you've got grounds for criticism here, Pah. FARMS has been attacking people viciously and personally for decades. Heck, you were part of it, and your stupid article put a man's life in danger. (Did you ever apologize for that, by the way?)

Pahoran wrote:...So let's see if I've got this right.

From what I've heard, some years ago, when he was still one of your lot, SeattleGhostWriter wrote some "erotica" which was placed on an Internet site he didn't control.

Later on, he repented and returned to the Church, but was unable to get his material removed from that site.

Then Polygamy Porter decided to follow the example of the muck-raking diva and go after SGW. In the process, he posted copyrighted photos of SGW and his family.

Am I on track so far?

AFAICT, all of this provoked nothing more than cheers, hoots of glee and assorted barnyard noises from the usual suspects. SGW then issued a take-down notice to the board, and the webhost, purely for the copyright images.

The Webhost then took the board offline for a couple of days.

I know that insincere expressions of regret are all the rage around here -- Ms Jack is almost as skilled at them as she is at dishing the dirt -- but I'm not jumping on that bandwagon. All I can say is that it couldn't have happened to a more deserving bunch.

But I do have a suggestion: How about, instead of creating spiteful vendettas against individuals, you change the culture here so that you can discuss ideas and events, and leave personalities out of it?

Interesting concept!

In the meantime, I have a question; two, actually:

Who was the MDB moderator (or "upper echelon someone" ) who offered drugs for sexual favours? And who orchestrated the cover-up?

Pahoran


Why don't you follow your own advice.

Compare them with those who don't resemble one of those descriptors, and the likelihood that everyone will dog pile that person greatly diminishes.

Question for clarification, Kish: Are you telling us that you actually approve of the vindictive jihad threads that this sty regularly spawns, or are you merely cheering from the sidelines because you simply haven't the vertebrae to stand up to the hagarchy?

Inquiring minds want to know!

Pahoran you seem to be ignoring the fact that nobody here really knew who this guy was nor did we care, until his 18 minutes of fame was turned into a jihad against this entire forum. Did you get that? 18 minutes is how long that image stood on this forum before all who saw it asked PP to remove it. And yet they are punished for doing the right thing.

The other 95% of the posters weren't even aware of this thread and found out that the discussions they had been engaged in all week had been destroyed and the forum taken offline because of some unknown douchbag with an ax to grind. And then he runs over to MAD to brag about his accomplishment. Your beloved Juliann has lied about us and cast aspersions on the entire community of posters here, even though many of them are LDS.

So stop pretending we just woke up one day and decided to attack poor SGW for no reason. This guy asked for it. He has lied about us and garnered support over at MAD, successfully creating this idiotic "board war" drama, getting Juliann to thrown down the gauntlet, and getting others to come over to make asses of themselves while trying to defend despicable characters simply because they are LDS.

Answer the question, SGW!

No he is not. A number of posters objected immediately to the posting of in real life pics. They were removed withing a half hour or so of being posted.



I felt sorry for SGW. The fetish blood was dripping from certain vampire mouths for a while. But I think that it is now passing.


Are you really in this much of a lah lah land Mr Cotton?

You should really ask Pahoran what he thinks of your happily guiltless Mormon Lay.


Or maybe a poll on MDD?

Somehow, I had the impression SGW had dusted us off, yet here he is again. Are we really that irresistible?

Pahoran wrote:Based upon my experience with you, I'll be sure to double-check all your assertions. The fact that you assert that I've got something wrong means that it's probably right.

You seem to have me confused with someone else.

Don't worry. I know exactly who and what you are.

MsJack wrote:
Pahoran wrote:When I said he was one of "your lot" I meant ideologically, not in terms of his forum membership. He and I are both still members here, but I certainly don't count myself as one of "your lot."

Well, I've never been a purveyor of erotica in any form, so I regret to inform you that he still wasn't one of "my lot" in any sense of the term.

No, you're a dedicated attacker of LDS defenders.

He was one of your lot.

MsJack wrote:
Pahoran wrote:Note that I've corrected your gratuitous expression of spite.

Not gratuitous, and explained in full by me here.

Yes, you've explained the reasoning behind your gratuitous spite.

Not to mention your egregious hypocrisy. I draw your attention to this post. Apart from the fact that your feigned "confusion" was as insincere a pretext to drag my in real life name into the thread as I would expect from someone as fundamentally dishonest as yourself, I point to your high dudgeon when I called you "Auntie Jack."

If we accept that SeattleGhostWriter does continue to write inappropriate material, I point out that at least he doesn't spend hours on end raking up dirt to use against people he hates.

In other words, if you think you deserve any respect at all, he deserves at least as much, because he's nowhere near as loathsome as you are.

Is that clear?

MsJack wrote:by the way, red text is for moderators only. Please do not impersonate the moderators by using it.

Impersonate who? Since I immediately said that it was my editing, I attempted to impersonate precisely nobody. You ought not to project your own fundamental dishonesty onto others.

MsJack wrote:
Pahoran wrote:And once upon a time I would have taken it as a given that a self-proclaimed "Christian" would never pursue spiteful little vendettas against an array of ideological targets.

Well then, you're in luck, because I've certainly never done anything of the sort.

Umm, Jackie? I've seen your hate posts; if your latest anti-Schryver thread is not a spiteful little vendetta, then there's no such thing.

MsJack wrote:I have taken a stand against those who espouse misogyny in their writing,

You're lying, as you habitually do. Will's ad hoc insults did not target women as a class; and thoughtful people understand that message board discussions are far too informal to represent a participant's "writing."

I'll grant that a lot of the snippets you dredged up were insulting. The most frequently cited insult, the "circle jerk suite" actually insults men. Your attempt to make a case for "misogyny" therefrom was utterly and cynically dishonest.

MsJack wrote:but I see nothing un-Christian or spiteful about doing so. If anything is un-Christian or spiteful, it's misogyny.

And misandry. And false witness-bearing.

MsJack wrote:
Pahoran wrote:As I recall, that individual openly apologised for that, and has not since repeated the error. As a self-proclaimed "Christian," I might have expected that repentance might mean something to you.

I never saw this apology---got a link for it? And please note that I don't consider a promise to apologize or an "expression of regret" to be the same thing as an apology.

Really? You quoted him:

I stand corrected. I did not recall having said that (although I do recall having thought it on occasion).

So, I am guilty of calling Emma Smith a champion bitch.

Certainly a little harsh on my part. I sincerely apologize to Emma. Upon reflection, I would merely say she was an emotionally volatile, high-maintenance woman who would have been a royal pain in the ass to deal with as a wife, and I admire Joseph Smith all the more for having put up with her all those years.

And subsequently:

Your posts have induced reflection on my part, and I have concluded that you make some very valid points, and that I need to seriously back off from my harsh criticism of Emma Smith.

It is therefore unreasonable and unChristian -- but entirely Jack-worthy -- to continue to fling that in his face.

MsJack wrote:I figured you meant me, but here's why I was giving you the benefit of the doubt: on the thread in question, I specifically denounced Polygamy Porter's decision to link to a picture of SeattleSmutWriter's family and asked him to remove it. Point in fact, that was my only participation in the original thread. Surely, I thought, Pahoran wouldn't be so "maliciously dishonest" as to try and link me with behavior that I had specifically spoken out against on the very thread under discussion?

I stand by what I said: PP was following your example. Did he do it in his style, not yours? Perhaps so, but that frequently happens. The example in question was starting dog-pile threads targeting a specific (Mormon, of course) individual.

MsJack wrote:But no, it turns out, you were being that "maliciously dishonest." How about that.

You are projecting.

Pahoran, while you're here, you should know that the dude returned to the forum a few days ago and said yours and William's claims about a previous ongoing "joke" between them was complete BS.

So now all you're left with, as usual, is William's denial, along with yet another witness against him.
