Yes Matt, it sucks when you actually pay attention.Are you going to ban this one, too?
This is the account I created when the site first went live. I don't have time to participate on the forum, but I've been out there supporting Atheism+ at every opportunity. As such, I've come across a number of people who have said "Hey, if Atheism+ was what you say it is, I'd have no problem with it...but that's not what it is."
I laughed at that, because it's a fledgling movement that isn't governed by anyone and hasn't even been well-defined. I pointed out that, as it stands right now, it's a forum. In response to that, people kept complaining about what went on at the forum and I didn't have the time or energy to investigate. Because I'm friends with the people who started this, I trusted (and still pretty much do) that the complaints were exaggerated. After all, I was on the back-channel list when the name was suggested, I was posting videos clarifying the subject, I was talking-up Atheism+ alongside PZ and Greta at the Denver AAA convention.
And then, I someone sent me a link to a post where someone had objected to some points Greta had made. The individual got some things right and some things wrong...and could have been corrected on it. Instead, they wound up banned - after some rather frustrating conversation.
I wanted to post about that, but I didn't want to post under my own name - because I wanted to prove that ANYONE could point out what was right and wrong about a post and make suggestions on improving our image and reaching the people who WOULD BE in agreement with us, if it weren't for the confusing and constant misinformation that is out there.
As it turns out, I was wrong. My post was deleted, unread, based solely on the opinion of a single moderator.
When I tried to point out the problem in this process - as anyone would who was surprised to have their post deleted...well, you can see what kind of response I got.
And I'm an ally - who wrote as an ally. Hell, I'm out there, despite the suspicions of SubMor defending and promoting this.
I am stunned.

I really hope that someone is going to research and study this little A+ phenomenon. It's about as close as I've seen to an actual cult spring up out of virtually nothing. (Well, with associations with social justice and feminism. But generally.) There's a whole group of people who are WTF about it from the very start, some who promote it without fully understanding it, some who use it for financial gain, some who are very "live and let live" about it, and some who get right on into the koolaid and start sharpening their pitchforks. I suppose it demonstrates that skeptics aren't always that skeptical and that even atheists can take on crazy, socially perverse dogma... which is why it'd be even more interesting to see research on it.

(my bold above).Hello Matt,
I have a lot of respect for you and what you do. Please don't doubt that for a moment. When you register a new account on a forum, you have no history on that forum, so the "you" that I was accusing of having no participation was the you that had no post history, not the meatspace you. We've seen our share of trollish new posters show up claiming to be "just asking questions," only to turn around and reveal hostile intentions shortly thereafter (you can certainly find a number of these under the #atheismplus hashtag). As a result of their behavior, the words I put in quotes trigger intense skepticism in me. I can't say I'm sorry for having this reaction in general, but I'm certainly sorry I misjudged your motives.
This post approval thing is a fairly recent development (without looking, I think less than a week old?), only having been implemented after a wave of trolls repeatedly posted graphic images and inflammatory remarks all over the forums. Very few posts have been disapproved, so this isn't an issue that's been raised before. If nothing else, this highlights a flaw (I think, anyway) with the phpBB system. I, like you, am uncomfortable that disapproved posts cannot be recovered. (And thank you, Siliddar, for modding the system.)
That said, given what Flewellyn has posted, I gather that your original post questioned the wisdom behind my banning of Skep tickle. I would be happy to discuss that ban if anyone (including you) feels it should be discussed. (Perhaps that would best fit in its own thread?)
This strikes me as a comedy of errors, although being in the middle of it makes it somewhat harder to enjoy the humor. Hopefully there'll be a happy ending.

Almost unbelievably spontaneous.
The very first person to reply to Jens thread suggested the name A+

Surely Matt isn't suggesting that the name was coined in the FTB backchannel beforehand ready to be quickly 'spontaneously' suggested in Jens thread - by 'Pteryxx' in comment number two?
Is he?
This reminded be of something that I've been racking my brains over - a comment from somewhere that suggested something along these lines but one that I didn't give much credence to when I saw it first.
I did a bit of searching and found the comment - it's in the comments of a post making fun of Richard Carrier on 'The Sneer Review'

That seems to fit in with Matts statement about the name (and probably the entire 'movement') being generated (in secret?) in the FTB backchannel.
What tangled webs we weave...
But in the minds of Jean Kazez, and the FC5, it is okay to blacklist people from the community if they have joined or spoken to people with political affiliations that you disapprove of. McCarthy did nothing wrong in their eyes.Until this moment, FC5, I think I have never really gauged your cruelty or your recklessness. Justin Vacula is a young man who went to the King's College and become co-chair of the Pennsylvania Chapter SCA and is starting what looks to be a brilliant engagement with them. Little did I dream you could be so reckless and so cruel as to do an injury to that lad. It is true he is still with the SCA. It is true that he will continue to be with the SCA. It is, I regret to say, equally true that I fear he shall always bear a scar needlessly inflicted by you. If it were in my power to forgive you for your reckless cruelty I would do so. I like to think I am a gentle man but your forgiveness will have to come from someone other than me.
Good point; I had figured that it was too pat a story that Jen made her big announcement and then within a short period of time, I estimated a couple of weeks: Voila! AtheismPlus website a going concern with moderators and policies and protocols. But maybe I’m just being cynical and that it's quite easy to set something up like that ….Dick Strawkins wrote: ...

Bit shitty of him, to have a stupid idea and set up some silly student to take the fall for it, hey! The A+ rallying sounds a lot like what I've heard of his speeches at conferences... the sort of chanting of YES that you can salute to... But this is interesting.

Certainly an interesting problem, I think anyway, as to why that might be the case. There was that Xjustos troll who recently kept posting the same schlock and I expect he just decamped for greener pastures when nobody was reacting in outrage – or in any response at all for that matter. I figure the A+ moderators might want to reflect on that case – and also the dearth of trolls and the general absence of “bad werdz†….rayshul wrote:Slimepit has really technically been around for a year, and I suspect its reputation keeps a lot of potential trollers away.
