I thought I could add some caustic comment, but it really isn't needed. However, Dave, you are a complete and utter waste of space.

That's funny. At one point Dembski prohibited Davetard from putting comments in other people's posts. That behavior was too jerkish even for Dembski. Remember? Davetard started pouting and threatened to quit? Last year I think.

I guess that stricture has been loosened, or Davetard's just doing whatever he feels like, or something.

I only have time to go through the comments in the administrative windows which list them in order received on the whole site. I can respond in that window quickly by appending at the bottom of the comment. If I have to drop out of that window to do it another way it will take too much time.

Commenting is what I like doing here. Moderating is a pain that I can do without. If appending my comments directly onto others is too much to ask in return for all the time spent moderating then I’m going to quit moderating. Someone else can do it and I’ll just be a regular user once more.

...After reviewing Timaeus’ last several comments and finding the word “God” in them over 100 times (I stopped counting at 100) I decided he needs to take it to a site where the topic is God. He is now no longer with us either.

(Highly likely this occurred in response to Deadman's post here. Yet another example of ridiculative selection.)

ETA: This is an exceptionally long and thoughtful thread with respectful, articulate, and well argued contributions from Jack, Ted Davis, and Timaeus. DaveScot waves his arms from time to time, but his interjections are largely ignored.

No wonder they were banned.

Upright BiPed, this is politics and has nothing to do with ID, or are you proposing to ban all liberal Democrats that support ID from UD?

GCUGreyArea: I think you’ll be happier elsewhere, so you have your wish. I didn’t delete your post, however, because it is instructive. The contempt you feel toward ID is the contempt I feel toward Darwinian materialism, only more so. What I find so offensive about that viewpoint is that it bills itself as the antidote to superstition, the only way to enlightenment, and therefore as justified in using any means whatsoever to advance itself.

Could we have the quote that got him banned? Because what Dembski posted actually makes not the slightest sense. GCU's comment holds no contempt for ID, but for the hypocrisy of UD, and is not at all instructive for Dr Dr Twatball's* propaganda purposes.

Hi there, I'm here now...

Hello, I'm mostly a lurker but I thought I'd say hello, especially as your username is from one of my favourite books.

Welcome.  Just so as you know... they're all very nice here but some of them are, well, a little odd.

Carlsonjok used to have a thing about horses but now does a lot of "har har this is you" type pictures.

Louis and Arden go on an awful lot (and I do mean an awful lot) about each other's mothers but REALLY we all know they've got a thing for each other and ought to get a room.

Afarensis and J-dog both have a thing about cavemen, in fact I have a suspicion that J-dog actually IS a caveman.

One of the Mods is a witch, another seems to be rather fond of the bottle and the third has a beard but likes to wear a red dress - we've seen the pictures.

Zachriel and Reciprocating Bill are very brainy but are as dotty as the rest of them.

We used to have a poster called richardthughes who was very funny and wrote the very best tardologues (although others write quite good ones too).  He went off in a bit of a huff and I for one miss his contributions.

A significant amount of communication appears to be achieved by means of LOLcats (is there nothing they can't do?)

I think that's about it.  There are loads of others here and most of them are a bit dotty too.

Anyway, welcome!

Huwp

DUDE! We've been waiting for you. (I'm feeling vaguely like St. Peter.)

You'll find clean towels on the stool in the bathroom (what I mean to say is...), clean sheets in the center hall closet. You might have to wait for hot water so be patient. Please DO NOT attempt to use the dumb waiter; she has her own thread.

I here admired your exchange with DaveScot vis the evolution of wheels.
