See:
Thread No Gospel without Wrath etc, Post 100 and following post 101. I have been struggling to keep this thread on topic. Paisano claims what I've called off topic is really on topic. I don't want to see it get off on all these side trips, but request moderator opinion. This message has been edited by Faith, 08-29-2005 03:36 PM

I would like to use some images in the OP of a new thread but I also want them to be more permanent than I am willing to host myself. Is there any way to get some small images hosted on EvC?
Didn't know where better to ask this question. No smoking signs by gas stations. No religion in the public square. The government should keep us from being engulfed in flames on earth, and that is pretty much it. -- Jon Stewart, The Daily Show

Use imageshack or photobucket. I have used imageshack before (use peek to see the urls of the images), and it seems to work alright. It's free, and doesn't require registration. Simply upload your image onto their site, and they will return the url of the image, to which you can link like any other image.
However, make sure you right it down -- without registration, there is no way to keep track of your images, so if you don't have the url of the image written down it will be lost forever.

Even with the lower standards that we expect from creationists, Iano is quite clearly taking the piss in the way he is quote-mining me and my line of enquiry in the Abortion thread.
It starts here: http://EvC Forum: Abortion -->EvC Forum: Abortion

I went back over the exchange and while I agree that iano is using quotes out of context to avoid dealing with the issue, I believe the bigger issue is that you failed to make clear what you were asking.
It appears that you are trying to get more information about the following quote.
While under a local anaesthetic{sic}, an epileptics scalp was lifted away and the cranium opened to allow the surgeon direct access to the brain. Using an electrical probe, he touched that part of the brain which made the right hand move. As the hand moved he said to the patient "You moved your right hand" The patient replied "No, you did" Evidently the mans(sic) self awareness was not directly related to the brain. The surgeon then directed the patient to will his hand not to move. The patient agreed to resist moving it in his mind and as the hand began to twitch due to the application of the electrical probe, the patients{sic} left hand reached over and stopped the right hand from moving. The physician could control the brain but the mind of the patient, which trancended{sic} the brain, moved the left hand to stop it. The surgeon couldn't control the mind - only the brain You never clearly asked iano to support that assertion and provide the details of the incident. The quotation itself is of interest because it clearly shows the thinking and comprehension levels of the audience. Anyone who could accept such a quotation as being valid IS severely limited and does deserve extra cconsideration. New Members should start HERE to get an understanding of what makes great posts.

You said

You are expected to be able to make your questions understandable by the other person.
You needed to include the quote and tie your questions directly to that. Remember, you are speaking to someone who didn't simply fall down laughing at the absurdity of the quotation in the first place. New Members should start HERE to get an understanding of what makes great posts.

What you seem to be insinuating is that Iano is slightly retarded and that we should all take into account.
I have no idea what has happened to this site but it is being increasingly clear that something has happened behind the scenes in regards to moderation. I can see however that I am flogging a dead horse and will leave it there. This message has been edited by Charles Knight, 30-Aug-2005 01:26 PM

What you seem to be insinuating is that Iano is slightly retarded and that we should all take into account. Not at all. What I'm saying is that iano, if he accepted the quotation, has a fundamentally different view of evidence and possible conclusions than you do. To communicate, things have to be said in a manner that the listener can understand. I honestly believe that iano simply does not understand what you are asking. If you want to converse with him you need to try rephrasing things in a manner he can understand. New Members should start HERE to get an understanding of what makes great posts.

This really had gone beyond a joke - he is now just straight out and out making up statements from me.
I guess he read this thread and you were "not clear" and he thought you were giving him a license to tell lies.

There is a network saying, that goes something like this:
Do not ascribe to malice what can be explained by ignorance or stupidity. I think AdminJar is simply following that principle.

Hi, Arach, try Nighttrain`s Ten Ironclad Rules of Communication Rule 1. Never debate a fool or a fanatic Rules 2-10. Refer to Rule 1.:-P or, since we talk about the bible a lot,

I must confess that I'll slightly baffled to find myself making this post but my basic sense of fairness pushes me to...
Randman's banning from the science forums seems slightly vague - I am not suggesting that it is not deserved and I am not suggested a detailed breakdown of why must be presented, but it may be useful to at least reference a couple of threads so that other posters can get a better concept of why the ban has occured.
