Are you going to state why you think this is an example of censorship?
Who is crossposting to alt.atheism? The only newsgroup listed in my

I have this entity killfiled. Does that count as censorship? In the words
of Ray Martinez I have a third world mind.

I still get plenty of bycatch, including your post, of threads started by
those I have filtered. After implementing my stricter policy I haven’t
noticed much worth following up to lately. Killing threads might be a game
of whack-a-troll.

Wish I could just whitelist, but then I might miss decent newbies.

What a trainwreck. Not much for rubbernecking anymore.

So censorship and proof are two more concepts you have no idea what
you're talking about and are proud of it.

How is a cite to a delusional post you made proof (or even
vague indication) of censorship? Is "SEE? I WAS ABLE TO
POST!!!" your definition of censorship?

Incorrect. The reason it didn't appear in T.O. is because you didn't
post it to T.O.

you used the phrase that had a sexual connotation and didnt know it had that
yet accuse someone else (projection) of doing that

then you claim if i dont reply to positions i do not hold to

Even you should be able to recognize how odd that one post would be
censored but all your other posts sail through just fine. There's
certainly nothing distinctive about it.

Why should anybody take just your word about this? It's far more

Yes, we're all aware of your character.

>i tried to post it here
>and it was not allowed to be in here

That's your claim, which I reject as a lie or another of
your delusions. The post you referenced in Gurgle showed
only alt.atheism, and that's the only evidence you have.

>so i posted it over there

So even if you *had* been blocked here (which you weren't;
that's just another of your delusions) you weren't censored,
since you were allowed to post in Gurgle's version of
Usenet. Q.E.D.

Even though that reference has absolutely nothing to do with
censorship, I assume you intended it to refer to our
discussion about claiming an identity different from one's
own, correct? If you can recall that far back (yesterday),
you'll remember this exchange:

---------------------------------
[StanFast]

it would be illegal to try to claim to be someone I am not
a crime

[Me]

Nope, that applies *only* if done for an illegal reason,
such as an attempt to circumvent arrest, or in cases such as
identity theft. Otherwise you can *legally* use any name you
want, although no one has to accept it without documentary
evidence.
------------------------------

Since your reference is about false *documentation* it
doesn't apply to that exchange.

Yes talk.origins is censord. It is "moderated". In talk.origins moderation is made by a computer program.

If you for example try to crosspost to more than 4 newsgroups your message would be deleted.

No, Sparky, it is not; the process in t.o is *exactly* what
I stated. There is no content moderation *at all*, and only
a very few individuals have been banned, all for cause;
usually either for morphing nyms to avoid killfiles, or in
one especially egregious case (Jabriol, aka "Jabbers" or
"that idiot who crossposts to rape support groups with
comments that it's their fault 'because evolution' ") for
violating Netiquette so grossly and continually that he
probably deserved far worse.

*You're* posting here, which should give even you a clue.

you are of course ignoring the evidence that certain posts of mine certainly were censored.

Because many, many, MANY different people over DECADES have complained about
Google Groups in many, MANY newsgroups, most of which are NOT moderated.
Meanwhile, t.o’s robomod has very specific rules. You simply cannot violate
some of those rules when posting using Google Groups, as those rules involve
crossposting (max of four newsgroups, including t.o; if one other group is a
Jehovah’s Witless group, just two groups; no crossposts to rape survivor
groups) and GG doesn’t allow crossposting. You’re still posting, so
you’re not banned. The t.o robomod doesn’t kill individual posts. Nah,
(one of) your problem(s) is Google being Google. If you get a real newsfeed
that problem will go away. You’ll still be nuts and stupid, though.

The following may come across as pointlessly pedantic, but it's really
a sincere point about epistemology.

Other than satoshi's testimony, there is no material evidence that he
made those posts to T.O. One might allow for argument's sake he
actually did as he claims, but based on his numerous posts which
passed the "censor", my default assumption is, any statement Satoshi
makes is counterfactual. If he told me the sky is blue, I would first
look outside before accepting it.

It is true that numerous people have complained about GG dropping
their posts without notice. To which I respond thus:

1) That is not evidence of Satoshi's claim any more that the
appearance of UFOs is evidence of space aliens visiting Earth, or that
Nyikos the peter's cites to others' posts are evidence of their
malfeasance.

2) Whatever problems GG has with dropping posts, given the mechanics
of T.O.'s moderation, GG is far less likely to drop posts to T.O. than
to other froups. And even if GG did drop a post to T.O., said post
would *still* necessarily appear on other news servers. The fact that
Satoshi's allegedly "censored" posts did not so appear (I checked),
rules out your hypothesis.

On that basis, I reassert it's far more likely Satoshi posted to
another froup, or he simply misremembered posting them in the first
place.

Since satoshi (aka StanFast) thinks(?) that videos and
photos of documents posted online "prove" who he is, your
contention is confirmed.

Shitoshi's paranoid delusions prevent him from understanding it's a simple technology glitch. I'm pretty sure everyone who uses google groups has experienced it more than a few times (I have). My feeling is, if the worst thing that happens to me on any given day is that a post of mine doesn't show up on T.O., I'm doing pretty fucking good, and I think most of us here have the same philosophy. That shitoshi has had such on obvious emotional reaction to it only reveals that he has a much more concerning underlying problem.

He has enough problems putting together coherent sentences. If he tried to use eternal september, it would push his paranoia of the deep end.

How did you post them? What client did you use (GG, forte, thunderbird, pan, ...)? Did
you attempt to crosspost to other moderated newsgroups? Did you attempt to crosspost
to any support groups? Did you attempt to crosspost to more than 4 other groups
that don't belong to the previous categories?

Have you attempted to repost any of those messages?

t.o. moderation is done by a script - it looks at authors (people who have been
perma-banned for cause), newsgroups (no crossposting to more than 4 groups,
no crossposting to moderated groups, no crossposting to certain flagged groups), and
*that's it*. There are any number of reasons why your post didn't show up that have
nothing to do with moderation.

I sometimes send posts that fail to show. I attribute it to some glitch in
the exchange between servers from my newsserver to Darwin. If I expended
any effort on the post it can be a source of frustration and for some
reason my reader doesn’t have a sent folder. But it’s not a deliberate
attempt to stifle me. Just usenet gremlins making a meal of my word salad.

I can't imagine the number of times we've told trolls like Shitfest and
Professor Dunce (aka "Nyikos") to switch to a real newsreader, are all
trolls so masochistic that they insist on continuing to harm themselves
by using GG? I think so.

If satoshi/StanFast makes a post, it's *always* noise.

It happens to all of us occasionally. I've found that, in
*some* cases, retyping the content of both the "Newsgroups"
and "Subject" fields fixes the problem for the re-send,
indicating that those fields were invisibly munged somehow
(or that a simple re-send might also have worked).

However, in a post by John Bode he stated that crossposting
to *all* moderated groups is banned, which, if correct,
could have been the problem with at least some of the
messages which didn't appear; I try to remove obviously
inappropriate groups, but I haven't made it a crusade, and I
always check for the number of groups to keep below the "max
4" requirement.

Well, I'd know if I did it, and I didn't, unless you got caught by doing
something that gets autoblocked like posting credit card spam or in

rules regarding you personally.

Really, it's usually Google. Unless the disk fills or the server crashed.

Does that answer your question about censorship?

And there was some moderate rejoicing (yay).

I haven't seen the moderation and posting FAQ in a while - is it in a permanent location
now? Elsethread I claimed that the script rejected articles that were crossposted to
all other moderated groups - is that true, or did I pop a synapse and misremember a rule?
