This board is currently "moderated" by ... a liar.

How does someone who is proud of having no standards, able to have self respect ?

And the basis of Mr Graus' current disinformation campaign is in the following:

Ilíon wrote[^]:

Christian Graus: If I agreed with the Pope on something, I'd say 'well, I'm not Catholic and the Papacy is a sham, BUT......' Ilíon: But I'm not "liberal" ... so I don't need to do the shuck-and-jive. Unlike, say, Edward Keenan (in the review I linked to above), I don't even need to point out that I'm not going to preface a point of agreement by noting my overall disagreement.

Christian Graus wrote[^]:

OK, so you're not 'liberal', so you don't care what people think about you because you have no standards to uphold ? Gotcha.

Ilíon wrote[^]:

Yeah, something like that. :laugh: Poor thing.

Christian Graus wrote[^]:

Yeah, having standards and values is a real burden.

This is so funny to me. What is your point exactly ? I notice you didn't quote the exchange where I commented on you replying to yourself, and you quoted it and called me an intellectually dishonest hypocrite. Given that you HAD replied to yourself, all you did was reveal your lack of grip on reality. And, the reason moderation works is that it's given to people who don't use it to push their own agenda. I've never moderated one of your posts, so how is my being a mod remotely relevant to our discussion ? Oh, that's right, it feeds your persecution complex to know that I COULD edit your posts if I wanted to, because you assume I'll abuse that power, no doubt by judging me by your own personal standards.

:doh: The point, exactly, is that you're a liar. Shoot! I even explicitly spelled it out! While it makes me :(( that you're a liar, it's not *my* problem.

[Christian Graus]

So, to recap. You replied to yourself. I responded and pointed this out. You quoted me on this, and called me a liar. Then, in this thread, you called me a liar again. It's still not clear to me why you think I'm a liar. I may have twisted your words around to show that you have no standards, I know you didn't explicitly say this, you just made it apparent. Playing word games is me stooping to your level, it's not the same as lying.

He doesn't. He knows that you take pride in being honest and that he can get a rise out of you by saying you aren't. When wondering why he's whining about moderation, don't forget the jealousy angle. He'd love to have been given what he thinks of as power - which is, of course, why no-one in their right mind would give it to him

Yeah, the jealousy is not lost on me. And, he doesn't get a rise out of me. If you, or someone else I respect, were to call me a liar, I would care about the answer, With him, I just prod him for my amusement and see what comes out.

And you are (among other things) a hypocrite (*). But that never seems to phaze you or the other kiddies. (*) You like to falsely accuse me of calling you kiddies names, when in fact, what I do is call attention to and bluntly name certain less than optimal behaviors of which you kiddies are fond of engaging.

Which, as you well aware that nobody is going to act on your comments, is sub-optimal behaviour in itself.

I feel bad for being left out so I shall call you a liar, a fool and some other childish name just to get in on the action.
