How long must I keep doing this?

Although you have raised what could be considered valid points, I think you should think long and hard before commiting yourself to calling for someone to be removed from the post of moderator.

You need to ask yourself why they were given the post in the first place. The logical conclusion I would have come to is that said person would have the trust and respect of the forum users, both newbe and long term user.

Start sending out waves of discord like that and the result will be a lot of pissed off forum users, and you'll get responces like what you got from karingal... which I hate to say... I'm afraid I agree with.

Be sure you know what your doing calling for someone to be removed from being a moderatior... because if it comes to a vote, you will undoubtibly find it backfire on you quite badly.

End of the day, were all here because we have a thing about the Sinclair ZX Spectrum, remember that? Want to change the world, well, there are lots of websites for that too... with forums where comments like those mentioned would be welcome.

Nuff said

Just a suggestion, ZXBeccy. I was merely asking if anyone else agreed that fogartylee was getting officious. After all, if no-one speaks up, everyone thinks they're the only one. Better to speak up when you are the only one that stay quiet when you aren't.
Also, who actually reads debate forums on "lots of websites for that too"? The challenge is not to prove aspartame is lethal - that's already been done - but to raise awareness in the population at large.
If you name me three sites which serve my purpose i.e. allow the rapid spread of my message to the common man (and woman), I promise I will not start any more threads about aspartame.
And 3 from each of them and so on would result in me having reached 9; 27; 81; 243; 729... sites about it. Or I could just stay here.

Oh, and whoever said I was shouting and ranting - I'm not, I'm just looking to grab the attention of people, so I can spread the message. Because aspartame does kill, and it isn't fair on the people who die from it but hadn't ever been told.

    Judging by the actions of moderators of other forums, until...

    ...you get sinbinned for a few days
    ...you get your IP address banned
    ...you get your entire block of IP addresses banned, blocking both you and several other people who share your ISP
    ...you get your entire ISP banned
    ...you hunt down someone's hamster
    ...you photograph yourself "entertaining" someone's pets
    ...you dismantle the moderator's 2CV
    ...you dismantle the moderator's 2CV and then reassemble them on top of a cathedral
    ...you leave a penguin in the moderator's bathtub
    ...you coat the moderator's sledge in chocolate

    Some of the above are apocrophal. Others terrifyingly are not. Take the hint and know that you're not wanted here for some time.

    go to the forums on -

    1 - http://www.davidicke.com/
    2 - http://www.dailyreckoning.com/
    3 - http://www.experiencefestival.com/seven_rays

    There are people on all of these forums who will give you the debates you are looking for. That you won't find on a spectrum forum. Now please, let this be the end of it...
  • "1 - http://www.davidicke.com/"-this site is not functional
    "2 - http://www.dailyreckoning.com/"-this site is about finance
    "3 - http://www.experiencefestival.com/seven_rays"-this site is a religious fundamentalist weirdopark
    Therefore, none of these sites serve my required purpose.
    Keep looking or calm down.

    Bums to you. I'll spell fings the way I wanna spell em. :p
  • FYI, I am a well-informed person with a strong trait of maturity. My IQ is approximately 148, and I have achieved some pretty cool stuff in my time. Although only 14, I already have 2 GCSEs at A*, and have been moved up a year. I am significantly more intelligent than the average child. I am also not a "krakpot". If all of this doesn't impress you, well, just wait. I have devised a fundamental theory of matter, which makes more sense that Superstrings. It explains more or less everything. When I get round to getting webspace, I will show you.
    I prefer to be modest rather than boastful, but I can't stand it when people discredit the opinions of children.
    Children are not our future - they are our present.
    I know what I'm talking about - I am truly intelligent. I have been concerned about aspartame for years - I repeat: I have been concerned about aspartame for years. I did not merely jump into cornishdavey's thread for a lark. "As far as I am concerned, you are all dumber than trolls" - Ask Anyone.

    Oh great, a 14 year old who thinks he knows more about the world than those who have lived on it for decades longer.

    Admittedly you are advanced for your age - it wasn't until I turned 17 that I started believing all sorts of crap.

    It shouldn't be "approximately" 148. Either it is or it isn't. The scale is precise enough, unless of course this show us that the psychologist who conducted your test (seeing as psychologists, and suchlike professionals, are the ones who have the sufficient credentials and schooling to be able to read the test correctly) didn't read the results correctly.

    Well then they're the stupid ones.
    BTW, what's your definition of paradox?
    Anyway, the point is there is no reason why a well-informed intellectual like me shouldn't join in a discussion merely because they're a child.

    I'm afraid I should have explained this more clearly. I have never taken an IQ test. I once, however, took a test to determine whether I had Asperger's Syndrome, which a psychiatrist believed I had. The test itself was inconclusive, but the psychiatrist was able to use the test to estimate my IQ. The test was not a registered or standard IQ test, but the result is reasonably accurate. I only meant that the IQ was calculated from a test which does not give as high a level of accuracy as proper ones. My IQ is certainly somewhere in the region of 148, but it could be as low as 135 or as high as 165. On balance of probability, it is probably about 148.

    I personally don't think too highly of IQ tests ... the first time I took one I got a little over 150 and the next time I got a 129 ... both conducted by professionals because guess what "they" thought also that I had Asperger's ... I was young and had just recently had a one tonne barn door land on my head ... don't know if it made me any smarter but the tests were conducted within a year or so of each other ... made me a little quirky but so what.

    We are kindred spirits, my friend.
    I'm lucky enough not to have been hit by a barn door yet, but you never know...
