Man Made Global Warming; Does it exist, Yes and its a fact; Is it bad? Not so much...

[Kludge]

When did he do that? Just last night Cowlesy and Bryan both said they weren't going to ban him, then 15 minutes later he was b&.

Are you questioning their actions and/or words??!

 

[AFM]

Why was he banned though
I'm not complaining, shit I think its great
But I try to stay informed on issues

 

[IRO-bot]

O.K. I was wrong. Take the bowl back off your head. It doesn't seem to agree with you.

1) The earth's atmosphere has been warming over the past couple decades.

Of course.

2) At least some of this is due to human causes.

Yes.

Then you do find yourself mostly in agreement with electronicmaji's original post? I thought you were one of the ones disagreeing with him. My mistake.

is said not to have mostly non-human causes. It's claimed to be "so extreme, so rapid" that is will lead to upward out-of-control spiral in temperature you described earlier. I'm skeptical of these claims, as well as many things being attributed to AGW, like certain extreme weather, rising sea levels etc.

You really shouldn't be skeptical, this is pretty much basic physics. All of this is non-contraversial. If the Earth is warming, glaciers will melt. If glaciers melt, the sea level rises. How much, how fast, depends on how fast the earth is warming. They have models to predict these things, and the models are painting a dire picture.

Once you accept that the Earth is warming, all the rest flows easily from that. These other jokers don't accept the Earth warming thing.

Personally, Kade is my favorite troll.

Why was maji banned?

 

[ronpaulhawaii]

Why was maji banned?

I did not ban him, but from what I see, it would be cumulative insults and, excessive negativity. I think the straw that broke the camels back was behavior in the chatroom.

Anyway back to the topic at hand

maji was annoying. There's being a left-leaning liberarian, then there's being a full fledged liberal. He was the latter of the two. Department of Education helps people? No, I don't think it does. Sorry maji

I don't see how banning people because of their world view is libertarian. Expand on this for me.

As for EMI, he used a few too many personal attacks.

I've been dealing with a large amount of actual trolls on my forums, and it got me thinking about what a real troll is...

Many people wish that I ban religious people from the forums, which I will never do... arguably, the most disruptive trolls are actually libertarians...

I didn't know what they were before coming here... the same language, the same conceptual failures, the same flawed verbal logic... and they are definately trolling... being a great disturbance to the forum.

I can't ban them though, because of my principles.. they are not spamming, or abusing the forums. I mostly respond kindly to them, and encourage the older members, regulars, and moderators to do the same...

No, Kludge, I am not frightened at all. Being banned from this forum will be a lesson in everything I ever need to know about libertarianism. One that stems from the very problem of libertarianism.

The single question that all libertarians must face, the one that changed my own mind, and allowed me to grow out of it ultimately... a question that many belligerent forum addicts might think they know the answer to, but don't....


Why do you seek power, how do you seek to get there, and how do you intend to enforce it?


I believe in the Free Market Fairy And the Tort Sprite too. They'll keep our power cheap and our air and water clean. All you have to do is close your eyes and tap your money clip three times.

so? I didn't ban any on my forum. The only ones I banned was the link spammers that were just bots anyway. I was also a moderator for a socialist forum last year before getting into libertarianism

My forum has over 50,000 people. Trolls are problems.

Bots are very rare.

I am reading through Maji's posts, and I can't see why he was banned.
