And Rum, we booted the Pfeifferites and the Dawn Marie lackeys.  Either literally, or by just running them out the old-fashioned way.

Hmm, my memory must be getting weak as I get older. I thought the forum folded shortly after I was banned, and at that time the Dawn Marie/Pablo clique were the dominant factor.

I do regret that forum in another sense, in that Telesphorus and SSS (two of my all-time favorites) disappeared from the trad fora.

The Dawn Marie and Pfeiffer cult were gone as soon as they arrived, more or less.

On the other hand, the different "bad movie sequels" as Matthew put it, had their fair share, and I think one of those sequels more or less built it's brand around that nonsense.

These posts in my archive give a fresher take on my memories of that period. 1, 2, 3

Maybe I shouldn't be remembering SSS and Telesphorus so fondly. Though I do, because of the pre-ABLF period.

TMW expressing a desire to see DawnMarie come back after she had deleted her account on ABLF doesn't sound like he disliked her all that much. I don't remember you and SSS disliking her, but being quite friendly with her, as I express in one of those posts. She was a ringleader over there and dominated the forum, and the mods and owner. Never banned I take it. She deleted her account, so it doesn't appear you ran them out the old-fashioned way.

You and TMW have always given off a vibe I don't like. Can't quite put my finger on it. I didn't enjoy you two as mods on ABLF or Te Deum.

She deleted her account before all the visionary stuff came to the forefront.  That's how I remember it, anyways.  I remember she got very sensitive about something-- I think we were discussing the "canonizations" of JPII and JXXIII and she didn't like it and just took off.  We all thought it was fairly abrupt.  After that, the visionary stuff started to circulate.
.
When I say "booted" I don't necessarily mean banned-- as I said in the previous post, a lot of them we ran off the "good ol' fashioned way", i.e., by basically relentlessly arguing with them until they gave up.  By making them feel unwelcome (and it worked, usually does).

Don't worry, you've always rubbed me the wrong way too.  But nowadays I find it a lot more amusing than I used to.

Rum, I like you, but I think your standards are too high. I think we are all liberalized and Judaized to a large degree in the modern world. All of us, though on Cathinfo less so than on most websites. I know I am Judaized though I try to overcome it. I still remember with shame how when I was in High School I defended Shakespeare from accusations of antisemitism, citing Shylock's speech:

Hath not
a Jew eyes? hath not a Jew hands, organs, dimensions,
senses, affections, passions? Fed with the
same food, hurt with the same weapons, subject to
the same diseases, healed by the same means,
warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer
as a Christian is? If you prick us, do we not
bleed? If you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you
poison us, do we not die? And if you wrong us, shall
we not revenge?

as if there was nothing worse a man could do than not like Jews.
