Thanks for sharing your email. Half a year ago, some fellow editors may have questioned your block on some talk-pages, and perhaps, it would have been reverted. In my experience, TK as one of the more vengeful editors would have closely monitored you - as he had to find another reason to get rid of you. Nowadays, theses intermediate steps are skipped... larron^{sicut fur in nocte} 09:34, 1 March 2009 (EST)

So CP banned compassion? I noticed that the Help Desk was shut down the day I got banned. That's a fairly disturbing sign. And does that mean that TK has been at it for a while now? Wow... --RonyB 09:39, 1 March 2009 (EST)

Unfortunately, CP is a pretty much textbook example of what happens when you let people with the Right-Wing Authoritarian personality-type run things. Since The Authorities are by definition always right, what would the point of having an appeal process be? It would just give the Vandals another place to whine and spread their LIES that Conservapedia is in fact not perfect and flawless fnord. My sympathies, but welcome to the club. --Gulik 17:19, 1 March 2009 (EST)

And yes, TK has been sabotaging CP from pretty much the moment it started. You know the old saying "first-rate managers hire first-rate employees, second-rate managers hire third-rate employees"? Well, Andy "hired" TK. --Gulik 17:21, 1 March 2009 (EST)

What he "hired" was a first-rate sociopath. Radioactive afikomen ^{Please ignore all my awful pre-2014 comments.} 17:29, 1 March 2009 (EST)

yes, CP is more about obedience than compassion. Read the last one or two archives of Desk/Abuse. You won't recognize the names, as most were banned before you signed up, but it's a likewise depressing and amusing tale of the conversion of a wiki to a blog. larron^{sicut fur in nocte} 17:53, 1 March 2009 (EST)

Well, that's a shame. I think "the conservative position" makes a few good points (I think the same about "the liberal position"), so it's hurting me to see CP giving people such an easy target. It doesn't matter how good your deeper point is if your opening statement consists of "Liberalism is evolutionary racism and tries to ban school prayer!", for example. And banning people who try to do some damage-control doesn't exactly help. I'll give those archives a look in a minute, even though I think that I won't like what I'll see.

Also, what is fnord? --RonyB 17:58, 1 March 2009 (EST)

It's a Discordian in-joke. Radioactive afikomen ^{Please ignore all my awful pre-2014 comments.} 18:01, 1 March 2009 (EST)
