DCP naming names again

[_Chap]

Who is the Moderator on this forum that thought he/she was given away someone's in real life identity, Dr. Scratch?

V/R
Dr. Cam

Did you notice during the "Comments" on DCP's blog entry, that Chino Blanco at one point mentioned "driving into Taipei"? Meaning, in other words, that he'd spent time in Taiwan?

If so, take a look at this post:

viewtopic.php?p=636066#p636066

I've looked. Restructuring to avoid too many nested quotes, we have:

I’m amused how hard Pahoran tries to hide his real identity so as not to mix it with his online persona. I understand how a lot of posters here are not “out” with their disbelief and given the propensity of Mormon Apologists to contact people’s Church leaders and/or family, so I’m more than happy to leave them anonymous.

But I wonder what Pahoran has to lose in this case?

It may have something to do with his acrimonious divorce from his first wife, and the subsequent fallout from all of that.

Yes, there are many reasons why anonymity would be important to a poster. Working on political campaigns, such as Democrats Abroad Taiwan, for example.

Why did Liz think that Taiwan reference was relevant? It seems clear that she thought it was an effective retort to the person she believed Scratch to be.

There was a group of people who were complicit in gathering the information and giving it to DCP. One of these folks is a moderator here at MDB.

This is a serious allegation, and one that I think needs to be addressed immediately by Shades and the moderators.

How many moderators actually do moderate nowadays? I only seem to see signs of Shades and Liz, but perhaps I am not paying proper attention.

I wonder if that was part of the dossier they put together on Chino, given his time abroad in the East. Excellent find, by the way.

Ah, so you admit that DCP is in possession of actual information on this subject, do you?

I hope that Shades does something about it, too.

I don't know what kind of "research" you think I have done, Scratch. If you are accusing me of looking at IP addresses and giving that type of information to Pahoran or anyone else, I flat out deny it.

Did Pahoran tell me that he thought that Chino Blanco was Scratch? Yes, he did.

Did I suggest that Dan unfriend Jason Echols, who was on Dan's Facebook friend list? Yes, I did. (by the way, Dan does not know Jason, and has no idea why that person was on his friends list to begin with.)

Pahoran had already told Dan that he thought Jason was Scratch. All I did was notice that Jason Echols' name was on Dan's Friends list, and suggested that he remove Jason as a friend as a security precaution.

I did read on Jason's Facebook page (which is public) that he spent time in Taiwan. The comment I made to Scratch was an obscure swipe. It was a payback for his prior pulling of crap on me when he has tried to get me ousted as a Moderator previously.

It was an obscure enough swipe that if Scratch was NOT Jason Echols, Scratch would not know what the hell I was talking about, and it would be no harm no foul. If Scratch WAS Jason, then it would allow him to know that I suspected who he was, and he better simply leave me alone.

I read this thread as saying that they got the wrong guy - Chino is not Scratch. Indeed DCP seems to have withdrawn his own 'outing' by deleting the relevant name from his blog.

The point being claimed in recent posts (as I understand them) is that at least one mod in this board thought that Chino was Scratch, and passed on that information to interested parties, who were then misled into acting on it.

Alter,

I have never met or interacted with Jason Echols. Although I recently googled him and have seen his photo.

I do know Dr. Scratch personally and have met him face to face. I know his real name, I know his profession I know the town he lives in and I even know a little bit about his family. However, I would never divulge ANY of this information without Dr. Scratch's prior approval.

So you admit -- or rather, you proudly boast -- that you support the worthless Scratch's six-year long campaign of defamation and harassment against Dan, and you continue to protect his anonimity in order to enable it?

That's hardly surprising considering your demonstrated anti-Mormonism, but to those who believe your claim to be an LDS bishop, it may be at least somewhat disconcerting.

I can tell you with 100% certainty that Dr. Scratch is not Jason Echols. The truth is, Dr. Scratch really isn't that concerned if someone does find out his in real life. It's fairly amusing to him that there is such a huge witch hunt by many Mopologists to find out his in real life.

Yes, he's so unconcerned about it that he's been zealously guarding his anonymity for years. And when I hinted a few weeks ago that I knew his identity, he responded with angry threats.

"Fairly amusing." There's a Tui Billboard moment.

And given how determined you are to protect the worthless Scratch's identity, should we really believe that you would stop short of lying to protect him?

After all, it wouldn't be the first thing you've lied about in this forum, would it?

Regards,
Pahoran

I am sure you do.
