If you really want to know, why don't you ask at Enturb rather than
ARS?

It was for "namefagging." Specifically, she "outed" Garry Scarff.
Never mind that he had already outed himself and admitted who he is.
It's a week ban, no big deal. Unlike *some* OG critics, Patty is not
the sort to run screaming and crying for a dogpile of her friends from
other fora to come harass the regulars on EO.
IMO the ban was a mistake, but whatever. It was pursuant to the rule
on top of the Thunderdome that posting personal details of people is
the one forbidden activity. Subsequent to this ban, a number of other
people did exactly the same thing without getting banned. Maybe
because it was moot by that point. I'm not sure, and it doesn't even
matter. It's no big deal.
Apologies to pooks if I got any of this wrong.
I wonder what our friend from the Orwell anonymous remailer hoped to
accomplish with this post.

This kind of vicious totalitarianism in the hallmark of a cult! Outing
Scarff is no capital crime. Yet dig their bloodthirsty punishment.
All hope abandon, ye who wander in.

Well, it's not a capital crime, but it is an Enturb rule, and I'm glad
that they enforce it. In this case, though, I think Henri's right that
Scarff had already outed himself. I know he had already posted a video
in which a Scilon addressed him as "Scarff." After that I am not too
sure about the sequence of events.
Anyway, it's just for a week, so it's a slap on the wrist. I'm glad
she's not banned for good over there.
Beth
"Vicious totalitarianism"? Wow. Exaggerating much? Since when protecting
the wish of people to stay anonymous is "vicious totalitarianism"? If
banning for a week someone as a reminder of the importance of respecting
people's wish to stay anonymous is "vicious totalitarianism," what is
the qualifier for, say, Scientology's disconnection policy?

In the movie "the night of the living dead" (or "return of..") when
the zombies get out of the shipping drums, they are branded to look
for brains.
Banning someone on the Internet is can be the equivelant of putting
someone in a drum. It doesn't mean right or wrong in the larger sense.
It applies to one part of a fractally larger world.
The adaptation to beat the system by outing is a small price for
someone who thinks the outing is beneficial because in the larger
Internet world, outside of one forum; It's one thunderdome made up up
fractal thunderdomes.
Is there supposed to be a connotation of right or wrong, in character
that we are supposed to adjust as a result?
Taking sides of character, or assigning hate over people whose
entrance into a 'Thunderdome' that connotates "We don't need another
hero" seems the important element over information about a cult?

Jeeze, learn to recognize a joke!
Henri,
banning should only be as a very last resort. and not done on a whim.
I remember when you kicked me of the IRC #altreligionscientology
channel for "lurking" but you got that totally wrong. I was present on
the IRC channel, but couldn't post for two reasons:
1) I have two ISP entry points I can log into, one of which is seen as
nefarious on IRC.
2) I upgraded to Firefox 3 and the Chatzilla I used was not
compatible.
So I could sporadically connect and sometimes enter a message but then
I couldn't and it took me quite a few days to work out what was
happening and why.
You of course attributed the worst possible motives to my apparent
presence but lack of posting and instead of asking just kicked my nic.
With regard to freedom of speech and banning I think the OWH Jr. rule
should apply:
QUOTE
Freedom of speech does not mean that you can run into a crowded
theatre and shout "Fire"
UNQUOTE
There are three major negatives associated with banning
1) There is a chilling effect on the rest of the community which may
make the individuals less likely to contribute controversial material
for fear of being deemed "disloyal" and thus banned.
2) The whiners will always try to move the goalposts so that more and
more they are less willing to place their arguments on the marketplace
of discussion but rather to curtail further discussion by eliminating
those whose opinions are not comfortable to them.
3) And this is the most insidious it promotes an environment of
incestuous amplification which basically promotes ignorance and
stagnation.

It is no joke that people who help expose the evil cult of $cientology
somehow receive labels, or are eventually reflected as 'associates" of
other people. As if labels must be assigned to anyone who helps. And
there is no difference between the disconnection because of character
assassination, past present or made up, that ensues.
Is there a way to distance credibility of people from the facts they
bring, so that people and information are not all inclusive of
disconnection because of what group they come?
Case in point: David Irving. His information may very well be correct,
which damns the cult very much. Despite the group he comes or came
from. Who or what he dealth with does not reflect on me or anyone, and
maybe he cannot escape the role he has been given because of the
social disconnection policies that are well alive.

"The mystery of Mr. Feinstein's involvement in this strange cause is
not hard
to solve. As he has admitted to the Forward, he was paid to write the
pamphlet by the
Scientologists themselves. The Scientologists are known for being
both extremely wealthy
and extremely generous to those who consent to serve their purposes.
Mr. Feinstein has
thus far declined to reveal exactly what compensation he received but
other such cases
involved sums in excess of $10,000.
What is particularly unsettling is that Mr. Feinstein's pamphlet
appeared
while the Scientologists were in the midst of an aggressive crusade
against the German
government, which they incessantly likened to Adolph Hitler's Third
Reich. As can be
seen from the title of Mr. Feinstein's publication, "Art as Propaganda
Against Jews and
Scientologists in Germany: Echoes of the Past Reverberate in the
Present," it fully joins
in the spirit of the Scientology propaganda effort. The essay is
replete with analogies
likening the "victimization" of Scientologists in Germany today to
the Nazi war against
the Jews.
Mr. Feinstein is being disingenuous when he states that the U.S. State
Department has expressed concerns about Germany's treatment of the
Scientologists. He fails
to inform readers of a crucial fact: the State Department has
unequivocally condemned
the very same Scientology campaign in which he has taken such an
active part.
Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, for example, has said that
"comparisons between what happened under Nazism and what is happening
now [to Scientologists] are
historically inaccurate and totally distasteful." In 1996, the year
Mr. Feinstein's
pamphlet came out, the State Department's official spokesman declared
that the analogies are
"outrageous" and "wildly inaccurate" and that "we in the U.S.
Government feel a
responsibility to defend the German Government from those charges."
The State Department is hardly alone in this stance. Leaders of major
Jewish
organizations like Abraham Foxman, president of the Anti-Defamation
League, have also
spoken out. Foxman has called the analogies "an affront to the Jewish
community." Ignatz Bubis,
the leader of Germany's Jewish community, has characterized the
Scientologists' campaign
as "a smear against the memory of the victims of national-socialism."
While I do not believe, as Mr. Feinstein incorrectly imputes to me,
that all
parallels between the Holocaust and other instances of genocide are
ipso facto out of
bounds, the analogies he has drawn between the Scientologists and
Hitler's victims are
an insult to the memory of the Jews of Europe who were driven from
their homes and
murdered in concentration camps. For a professor of Holocaust studies
to indulge in such
comparisons is bad enough. That it was done for money and in the
service of a dangerous
cult makes it a far more serious transgression."

The Hitler Card
Alias: Argumentum ad Nazium
Type: Guilt by Association
Exposition:
In almost every heated debate, one side or the other-often both-plays
the "Hitler card",
that is, criticizes their opponent's position by associating it in
some way with Adolf
Hitler or the Nazis in general. No one wants to be associated with
Nazism because it has
been so thoroughly discredited in both theory and practise, and Hitler
of course was its
most famous exponent. So, linking an idea with Hitler or Nazism has
become a common form
of argument ascribing guilt by association.
Some instances of the Hitler card are factually incorrect, or even
ludicrous, in ascribing
ideas to Hitler or other Nazis that they did not hold. However, from a
logical point of
view, even if Hitler or other Nazis did accept an idea, this
historical fact alone is
insufficient to discredit it.
The Hitler Card is often combined with other fallacies, for instance,
a weak analogy
between an opponent and Hitler, or between the opposition political
group and the Nazis. A
related form of fallacious analogy is that which compares an
opposition's actions with the
Holocaust. This is a form of the ad Nazium fallacy because it casts
the opposition in the
role of Nazi. Not only do such arguments assign guilt by association,
but the analogy used
to link the opposition's actions with the Holocaust may be superficial
or
question-begging.

I didn't know is that Gary Scarff was still around.
There was some speculation that I read not too long ago (I forget
where) that he might have died of AIDs.
Glad to hear he's alive and kicking.

Your post is accurate. I knew there was a chance I'd get banned for
posting the info on Scarff, but I figured it was more important that the
people he was getting close to knew about him in order for them to make
their own decisions about him.

But no honor. You did not honor their rules about 'no outings'. When
you join something like that, with rules or a single rule, you in
essence agree to honor those rules. But you didn't honor this
agreement, you broke it.
Now if it were me on this thing, I'd tell you something like, thank's
dearie, but I can handle my own affairs. IOW, I'd be more thankful if
you gave some common courtesy and respect.
Banned for a week, hmmm. Doesn't sound that they were happy with the
disrespect you showed for them. Banned for a week, banned for a year,
never banned at all, none of that matters. You have proven yourself
unreliable. No honor, no respect for them.
I'll call them kids all day long, but if I get in their playground I
will honor their rules. I would give them respect. They invite
danger with a rule like 'no outing', but I would honor their decision
to invite danger. But that's me....

Garry is there and here, posting as "Happy Smurf" and a variety of
other identities in the recent past. He's also appearing IRL at
pickets in Hollywood with Anonymous and most notably, Angry Gay Pope,
a very active picketer of Scientology whose activities can be
explained by his own website, www.angrygaypope.com and who is
currently involved in litigation with the cult due to them suing him
claiming harassment in a pattern familiar to any long-term Scientology
critic.
Anyone who needs to know his history is well informed by this point
and can make an informed decision. My personal view is there's no
need to ostracize him or drive him away from pickets, but I would
certainly hope people are circumspect considering his lengthy and
ambivalent history.
C'mon, you know the answer. Using Funky Dianetics, the Holy Techies will
throw the SPs into confusion.

Besides, it was totally 100% useless information. DUH. Like you are
so deluded you don't know that *everybody* knows smurf is allegedly or
actually scarff. Of course they know on enturb, info goes back and
forth from here to there and from there to here.
But Patty has a BIG MOUTH.
PATTY IS A BLABBERMOUTH PATTY IS A BLABBERMOUTH
BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
But you answer to a greater call don't you Patty? A higher Cause.
You knew there would be a chance of being banned. But you were
willing to chance the pain and punishment because your Cause was just.
You were saving them from something weren't you?
Thinking deeper, that comment recently about 'disinformation
campaign'. Maybe on enturb they figured that scarff did not know,
that they knew, that he was scarff. And they were going to cleverly
feed scarff disinformation. LOL. If it is scarff, you'd have to go a
lot further to fool the man.
All a happy little game, but this isn't really that funny:
>Yes, and then die in a fire.
Well, it is ars after all, and people to say things like this can be
found, and that is a fact.
BALBBERMOUTH BLABBER MOUTH
BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
And no honor, no respect, and that is the bottom line.
And I keep making the same stupid error over and over... "Critics are
allowed to criticize other critics, that is what separates us from
them." I keep forgetting, this is only to be typed in and not
actually done. Sigh, I just keep making this same error.
bwaaaaaaaaaaaa

Oh jeezus, Ted. Yes, yes... we know Usenet doesn't have a facility for
putting text in italics or bold type, but did you really need that
many caps to emphasize your fucking tantrum?
So Patty got her wrist slapped, and was banned from the Thunderdome
for a week. I can't see that she's all that cut up about it. I thought
she took it pretty philosophically for a recently departed cultist.
QUESTION:
On the day Patty is readmitted to the Thunderdome -- which will be
very soon -- will you just STFU and be done with your whining?
Now, I thought those above examples were appropriate and proper uses
of caps on Usenet -- one word at a time as a subhead or acronym.
If you can't write well enough to get your message across in
conventional upper/lower case, then why not get someone to edit your
posts rather than make a blathering fool of yourself?

If a venue is moderated or not fully private in any way, there can be kicks
and bans.
Enturb has such, Beliefnet does, ESMB does, OCMB does.
There've been very few bans on the IRC channel. I think that some people's
beef with those is because of ~who~ was doing the banning, and not the
banning itself.

Tom Klemesrud,
the most anti German sentiment is found in Paris and the north of
France. I have spent very nice holidays in Fouras which is on the west
coast of France (and the best seafood munchies anywhere) and the
people there were great.
My best experience was in the casino in Fouras. The manager had
studied in Germany and we got to talking. He asked me if I wanted to
have a go at the gaming tables and I said "I only make bets that I can
win". He said "Like what?" At that time they were putting in a new keg
of beer and I said, "Well for instance that I can drink the whole of
that keg empty in five minutes". I put down 3000 francs on the table
and he accepted the bet.
So I sat there for five minutes and after they had passed the manager
reached over for the money and I said, "No, now I start drinking". he
looked at me and then we had a laugh, and I though no more about it.
At the end of the evening I was wanting to pay up and the manager

Right enough I do make the effort to actually speak French and that is
appreciated. We learned about Fouras from our French friend and it is
a bit of the beaten track.
We also spent a couple of our holidays in the south east of France and
had a thoroughly good time there. So all in all my experiences of
France and the French has been overwhelmingly positive.
BTW this one here is very funny:

NEC, banning you is NEVER a mistake. The only possible mistake
regarding you and bans is not to do it soon enough.
Henri,
funny how whenever someone gets a little bit of authority many can't
resist becoming what we call in German "ein kleiner Adolf". Another
German phrase which applies specifically to your post is "Der
getroffene Hund bellt".
You made a stupid assumption and attribution based on prejudice.
Having resolved my problems though, I don't really feel like I want to
share - so you really have naff to offer and you're not getting
anything either. So you have squandered a potential resource for
nothing. But I'm sure you'll be happy to know that my system is now
running smoothly again and I found a few tweaks along the way such
that it is now running a bit faster than before.
"Kleinkrämerseele" pretty much sums you up.
hahaha!
Arnie,
it's Erich Fromm - unless of course you are talking about the tennis
player.

Don't trouble Werma with facts. His cut-n-pasty drivel is only posted
here for innuendo, after all.

Just back from the honeymoon, and already back at work at ad hominem
attacks on victims of the Scientology cult--the cult that paid you
millions. But for what, holy reverend? What did you provide to them in
return for the money?
"holey reverend" is more like it. His story and his religion
( whatever it is ) is full of holes.
I disagree. Henri is a really great guy.
You are, too, but your charms are far more elusive.

Claire,
it's his problem not mine.
The weirdest thing? I have agreed with Henri more than disagreed.
It is kind of weird that he's resurfaced after this long. I don't
think he's been around this stuff in a number of years.
Maybe he recently became unemployed, and has a lot of time on his
hands.
There's a lot of THAT going around....
Well, to play Devil's advocate, a lot of people have shown up
recently. The activities of Anonymous have re-energized a lot of
people who had become inactive, and emboldened a fair number of new
people who previously didn't have the courage or desire to act. He
could have been lurking, just seen AGP protesting on YouTube, and been
inspired.
I don't think he's some stone evil bastard who deliberately sets out
to fuck people over for OSA. I think he's just easily pliable and
tends to do what pleases whoever he's hanging with at that moment.
That has led him into some truly reprehensible behavior in the past.
OSA knows this and will cajole and ply him. Maybe since the last time
he's been around, he's reformed himself. Who knows?
But people should be basing their analysis on the actual history, not
on the surface appearances. If they know that and choose to turn
their back they have nobody but themselves to blame if ill results.
Actually, people tend to be too trusting of all sorts of people, not
just Scarff, who they shouldn't. Even Anonymous/Chanology people do
this. People are untrustworthy in lots of different ways.
