    Some would have people believe that I'm a deceiver because I've used various handles on different Catholic forums. They only know this because I've always offered such information, unprompted. Various troll accounts on FE. Ben on SuscipeDomine. Patches on ABLF 1.0 and TeDeum. GuitarPlucker, Busillis, HatchC, and Rum on Cathinfo.

    Nadir was heavily Judaized. I'm pretty Judaized. Why else would I participate on "coed" forums for so long?

    The Church has always taught the strict segregation of the sexes.

    The fem "trads" overrunning this forum is what turns me off to it. Their errors are all over the spectrum ranging from criticizing Catholics who want to preserve their race to defending Christ-haters to simply yapping off like neurotic hens and refusing to concede to being corrected by generous contributor who give them answers. Gray2023 is just one quintessential example among many. Then they cry victim when somebody calls them out on it. What's alarming is the few men here willing to call them out on it, and these fems continue to be allowed here. They're even worse than the crypto-jews here, although there is some overlap with the crypto-jews since some are the same as the fem hens and fem cows.

    Are you the moderator? Is this actually posted by Croix? Or do you suspect that it was?

    I don't think ignoring is working.
    Just for clarity.  Early this morning Croix went on a rampage.  He started several posts and made just random comments everywhere.  Thanks to the moderators most of it was taken care of.  My comment was because he went soooo crazy.  Most didn't even see it.

    Jack OTrad and Resist Croix accounts were banned.  I don't think Croix has posted under a new account yet?

    I am concerned about the new accounts timzee and CatholicPollinator, but we will only know if he starts posting.

    Prayers for all.

    He just wants attention, if no one interacts with him or pays attention to him he will be bored and will go somewhere else.

    Matthew should get rid of this anonymous subforum, as he and Mater can see everything. It's a tease.
    Yes. It's become a hideout for hit-and-run know-nothing cowards.

    You don't have to participate in the anonymous forum? I personally like it as I can express my honest thoughts.

    Sorry you don't understand the purpose of an anonymous subforum.  Adults sometimes forget that children have access to it also.  You see, we all know Matthew and Mater see who the posters are, we just don't want all the members to know.
    Maybe matthew will one day start a subforum just for you kiddies.

    Yes. It's become a hideout for hit-and-run know-nothing cowards.


    The Anonymous forum is still moderated, you know. In fact, the exact same standards are enforced as on the rest of the forum.

    Allowed/intended purpose:
    "My wife is extremely distant and I think she's cheating on me. What should I do?"
    "I am having temptations against the Faith. What should I do?"
    "Do you know any good home remedies for (insert health condition here)?"
    "My SSPX chapel brought in a Conciliar priest today to say Mass. Has anyone else experienced this?"

    See, there's nothing in the above content that's against the rules. However, it's extremely sensitive, so I could understand a user not wanting to post with his own name when contributing such posts.

    Abuse of the Anonymous forum -- posts that will be moderated and/or the user permanently banned:

    "Y'all suck! And you don't know who I am, so you can't even downthumb me! Bwahaha!"
    "Ok you (expletive) Jew. Get the hell out of here!"
    "I think all the women on here stink! And I won't let you know who I am either!"
    "Should we ban (insert username here)? I think he's the bane of the forum!"
    "I think Hitler should be canonized." (posted in the Anonymous forum, due to its unpopularity and to stave off downvotes)

    In conclusion, it's NOT ROCKET SCIENCE. There's not even a grey area. It's always black and white, at least for someone who understands basic rules. If you're using the Anonymity as a cloak for malice, it's abuse. If it's to protect your good name (NOT your CI rep score) and/or LEGITIMATELY prevent embarrassment, it's OK.

    If there is a grey area, it's the "unpopularity" clause. But let's put it this way -- I reserve the right AT ANY TIME to put your name to whatever "unpopular opinion" you post in Anonymous. I will never embarrass anyone over a legitimate issue (health, family issue, marital issue, spiritual issue, various sufferings, anonymous whistleblowing, etc.

    YOU KNOW when you're abusing the subforum. And so do I. In short, I can moderate the post, unmask the poster, ban the user -- OR ALL THREE. It's up to me. You take that risk Every. Single. Time. you post in this subforum.

    CathInfo is a moderated forum. Including the Anonymous subforum. No part of the forum is a free-for-all.

    • And for those unaware, there is a "Report to Moderator" link at the bottom right of every single post -- including posts in the Anonymous subforum. Just make sure it's actually breaking the rules, not merely disagreeing with you.

    At this time, to the best of my knowledge, there are 0 posts in Anonymous that break the rules.

    Go ahead, prove me wrong. But if you think I'm going to read through all the posts in Anonymous to find violations, you're insane. CathInfo is too popular and active a forum for that. And I have WAY too much of a life for that.

    Primary reasons: Ad hominem attacks and because you can't be trad enough, there is always someone more trad than you :fryingpan:. This thread is already becoming the type that turns me off.
    I've been holding off on answering this thread.  Not because I don't have many things I could say regarding why I am no longer active, but mostly because I wonder whether it matters/will matter to even say them.  It has been apparent for quite some time that nothing will change here. 

    I will just say that I agree with the poster above that this thread is a good example of at least some of the issues with this forum.  And to be fair to Croix, he isn't the only member that contributes to/causes these issues. I think it's easy to just blame it all on him. Ironically, certain of the members who have posted in this very thread are also part of the problem.
