Yes, yes, but Confucius didn't know he could simply have painted it pink and erected an SEP field.

Can't believe I had to google SEP field, how easy one forgets.

I've had a wee scan through a couple of threads but they're long
What is he talking about with this sexual abuse? Where are the offending posts?

Pappa is joking, Paula.
I'm wild just like a rock, a stone, a tree
And I'm free, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I flow, just like a brook, a stream, the rain
And I fly, just like a bird up in the sky
And I'll surely die, just like a flower plucked
And dragged away and thrown away
And then one day it turns to clay
It blows away, it finds a ray, it finds its way
And there it lays until the rain and sun
Then I breathe, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I grow, just like a baby breastfeeding
And it's beautiful, that's life

I don't believe there is the slightest truth to the allegations (though it's possible I missed a post here or there, I think I read almost everything). If there was he could link to the threads, since we don't delete anything

I seriously just thought he was being precious about being sworn at or suchlike, I didn't think for a minute he'd really been abused

Aw, shit, rachel-- you slogged through that whole mess?
I hope it was just for something to do while you convalesce. Because if those posts existed, it should be on Exi5 to point them out. I think it was you who mentioned he'd been here looking. He'd have let us know if he found anything.
I'd love to be rid of this situation and its continuing fallout. I can't imagine how you must be feeling. Can you take a break?

Exi5 started a bunch of threads about making changes the to forum and the way it should be run. It whipped a bunch of people into a frenzy and stoked up a load of drama. Depending on your opinion, he was either a "Concern Troll" or he was not. Either way, by a majority decision the staff decided he was in breach of out "Intentional Malicious Trolling" rule and gave him a warning. He said he'd never darken our doors again and left.

Thanks for the rundown. For what it's worth I think he's being a total dick to you, it could be described as harassment but believe me when I say he's just making an absolute cunt of himself.

He posted from PZ's site too. Has PZ taken down the offending posts?
What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."

PZ said he was no longer going to moderate anything posted. Apparently in spite of the terms of service of his web host.
