Please use this thread for alerting admins to moderation issues and for discussion or complaints arising from particular decisions.
Here are the two comments of yours I moved to Guano:
1)
2)
You’ll note the complete absence of any links and that none of the quoted material violates the site rules.
You were saying something about integrity?
I have a large post in the “what is the plan?” thread awaiting moderation.
How come this seems to happen often? Is it because I re-use the initial quote-tag often, or jsut because the post is large?
Probably. Having many links tends to trigger going into moderation. I guess the software doesn’t check whether the links are all identical.
In any case, the post is released.
Yes. You have none. Which is why you should remove yourself as a moderator.
This is just incredible. Do I need to explain to you how hyperlinks work? Look for the text in blue. Let me know if you cannot see the color blue.
Here is a link to the first post in Guano.
Now in that post look for “OMagain” (it is the text in blue) and click on it. That will take you to the original post
Here is a link to the second post in Guano.
Now in that post look for “Tom English” (it is the text in blue) and click on it. That will take you to the original post
Unbelievable.
What planet are you on?
In another thread, I find this post by Patrick:
Apparently not. One might think that the choice to use the color blue for a hyperlink might be based on more than a whim and a fancy.
The evidence indicates that Patrick can’t see blue.
The fact that Patrick cannot see blue should not disqualify him from being a moderator. But I think he owes me an apology for accusing me of a lack of integrity based on his inability to see what, according to his own testimony, we ought to all be able to agree on.
If reincarnation is a real, Mung must have done bad things with kids in a previous life.
Like, taught them “science.”

I can see the color blue. What has Patrick done that robs him of the ability to see the color blue?
Look for THE BLUE!
Why does Richardthughes always weigh in on the losing side?
Mung,
4/10. To fully capture the ‘trump tweet’ you need a short ending like ‘sad’. Or ‘loser!’
If I were Richardthughes I’d be a Bernie Sanders supporter. Then I’d sell out my principles to support Hillary Clinton.
Mung,
Wrong again. You’re consistent!
Tom English:
Every eleventh word out of your mouth is hypocrite.
Of course, Tom presented objective empirical evidence to support this claim, else Patrick would demand that Tom provide objective empirical evidence to support his claim. You know, what with Patrick being all about fairness and equitability and all.
The obvious conclusion is that you have no principles.
Behold the power of the design inference! Walk is through how you got there, Mung. I think this will be a good lesson for us all.
Start a thread Dickie. Make a claim. Explain why you think Democrats are liars and hypocrites and not worthy of a single vote. I might even agree with you.
Read what happened, not what you want to have happened. You accused me of being an Bernie Supporter who flipped to Clinton. I told you you were wrong. You then said ‘the obvious conclusion was I have no principles’. Let us know how you came to that conclusion.
Wrong again retail clerk boy. I did not accuse you of being a Bernie Sanders supporter, and it’s entirely possible that you sold out to Hillary without any principles.
Bernie Sanders supporters are at least principled.
It’s always amusing to see Mung bluster and sputter and fling his tiny Mung turds around. 😀
Feel free to to show how your thinking (about my politics?) leads you to find me lacking in principles.
That might be worth considering if you had any evidence and weren’t a proven quote miner.
Ah, links that are automatically inserted when replying to a comment, not links that you provided pointing to any comments that support your claims. I apologize for expecting more from you.
I don’t get involved in every discussion here, unlike certain seagull commenters. Nothing in Tom’s comment violates the rules.
And you’re still wrong. Would it hurt you to admit it? Do you and keiths have a club the rest of us can join?
When was the automatic link insertion fixed?
Is it too much to ask that the moderators be, you know, moderates?
You’re hilarious Patrick. No, really!
Here’s a link to your first post on this page.
In it you have a link to a post of mine.
But your link doesn’t work.
I would hold off judging others on their ability to provide a working link when you can’t manage it yourself. Oh, wait, my links worked.
How do suppose I manage to make my links work when you can’t seem to manage to make your links work? You know, without me making any effort to do so.
And you call people hypocrites without using the word hypocrite.
Liar.
From your own mouth:
Make up your mind you pathetic loser.
Is it Friday yet
It is Friday. Do the liars go away on Friday?
Logged in over lunch and found seven pages of new comments. Moved a half dozen or so to Guano. Please address the ideas and not the person.
Be sure to say, “that is a lie,” because that addresses the idea, not the person.
Calling someone a liar addresses the person.
Not that Patrick actually believes that addressing the person, not the idea, is against the rules!
Pathetrick.
LOL! It’s always hilarious to watch Mung fling his tiny turds everywhere to satisfy his attention whore complex.
Like Pathetrick, you can’t see the color blue.
Not that Patrick actually thinks that posts which address the person ought to be sent to Guano.
That doesn’t address the person, it is clearly directed at the idea.
Pathetrick.
Mung,
Just because you’re not brave enough to use your own name doesn’t mean you get to change others.
There are people here who aren’t sure what theirs is! With them, maybe it would be OK?
All of a sudden you’re going to begin to enforce the rules? Why the change of heart?
I made a thread submission. I still screw up who to inform.
It’s a blessed thing to inform the ignorant, but they don’t always appreciate it.
Just posting a request in “moderation issues” is fine. Your new thread is posted.
Mung,
Patrick has a heart? Who knew?
Next thing you will be telling me that Richard has a brain of some kind.
Richard does have a brain of some kind, it’s just that it’s usually rented out and not available when he most needs it.
Maybe NewPatrick will help bring back the NewMung.
But with all the insults that have been flying around lately I think it more likely he just had a sudden attack of conscience and now he’s back on vacation.
Patrick: Please address the ideas and not the person.
If only the mods would enforce that one simple rule. Forget about porn and outing. They happen once in a blue moon.
Patrick: Please address the ideas and not the person.
But petrushka has no ideas.
Which Patrick came back from vacation? The lying Patrick or the lying hypocrite Patrick?
Mods, could one of you attach this URL to the first link in my new OP?
Thanks.

Mung,
If you think a comment violates the rules and has been missed by the admins, please raise the issue here.
First, it is not my decree, it is one of Lizzie’s rules:
“Address the content of the post, not the perceived failings of the poster. ”
Second, I see nothing that violates the rules in the excerpt you quoted. Could you please be more specific about which rules you believe apply?
