Which poster do the CA rank and file regulars find the most troubling: Poche, Jayne, or Greg? I have entertained myself over the years watching some here go apoplectic over the aforementioned posters. Are Jayne and Greg banned as well?
No, I am not banned and I just posted earlier in this thread. I suspect most members who have been here less that five years do not even know who I am. Or, if they do, they think of me as someone who argues with flat earthers, not a notorious forum trouble maker comparable to Poche.
So here is an explanation for those who are puzzled: I came to trad forums when I was new to tradition, after 30 years in the Novus Ordo. I was an annoying poster with modernist views similar to those of Poche (though far more conventional eating habits). Unfortunately, during my first few years on trad forums, I had no clue about how much I needed to learn. I thought I was already well-educated in Catholicism and I argued incessantly. People did call for me to be banned back then, much as we have about Poche.
Unlike Poche, however, I was teachable, and became more and more traditional in my views. It has probably been years since I wrote anything doctrinally problematic. My case illustrates why Matthew tends to be slow to ban people. He prefers people to stick around and learn.
By the way, Greg is banned, but not over religious issues. His rudeness to the forum owner passed what Matthew was willing to tolerate.
