The people who are upset here will get over it. They'll have to chill. If they suddenly think posts on this forum must show concerns for the feelings of others they're just being hypocritical.
But I've made a true point with true facts, and that's enough. I'll stop.
Then why did you bring it up if they are of no concern?
And "true" is what you consider true, and maybe you alone.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

Let this one go, man. Please, please, please. Let it go.
Limit your accusations to people who are alive and can defend themselves.
I'm sorry that you get personally insulted here. If you think I can help you out in a given situation, feel free to PM me or mention me in thread. Also, feel free to point out if I dispense personal insults to anyone. Not when I'm being fun and sporting though; I like a rowdy debate on occasion. But if you feel like I'm bullying someone, please, call me out on it. If I agree with your assessment, I'll own up to it and/or rectify the situation if it is wise/feasible to do so.

You did nothing of the kind you slandered a dead person who can't defend themself without a shred of evidence . Then complain someone who has proof the person they were insulting was an aweful person did so .

Rob used be a valued and well loved poster here (he's probably still well loved). About a year ago though he went of the deep end and started posting a lot of far-right conspiracy theory nonsense in the fashion of "I'm just asking questions". After a while he kind of disappeared, occasionally resurfacing to open threads like this on and then abandoning them, supposedly as we are unfair on him for picking apart the idiocy. He has serious health issues over the years so maybe they are a contributing factor or cause of him going off the deep end.
It is quite sad to see really.

Um, he was talking about an alive person. From his original post
Quote:Recently a guy who posted on the old [S]inking Atheist forum died. His friends are eulogizing him as kind and generous. And to them, he was. He also spent a lot of time on that forum bullying people and typing the most hurtful things he could think of. But his friends agreed that the recipients of his cruelty deserved it, so they think it was a good thing to do.

He was talking about Rob... Rob's alive as far as we know. I don't know where you got that quote, but I'm thinking that it wasn't from Downbeatplumb.

What part of " Recently a guy who posted on the old [S]inking Atheist forum died" do you not understand?
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.

I was indeed talking about Rob. Is there some implication that I wasn't?

Yup ignore what I wrote, what with the derailing of the thread it's understandable confusion has prevailed.
