Re: Had enough.
One rule which applies in this forum is defending a claim when requested; or at least acknowledging that you are unable to do so.

I've been able to work problems out with most everyone here but Percy, who shows up when he thinks he's needed to jump in on behalf of his own with this stuff about "you're not debating on what we consider to be THE SCIENCE so either shape up or ship out."
It looks like a quote, but I can't find it. The grammatical error makes it unlikely to be Percy's exact words. (No offence intended, but it's true. Percy tends not to make many such errors.)
It also looks like an inaccurate reflection of the actual issues Percy has raised from time to time. You can debate whatever you like, as far as I can tell. We are all expected to follow some conventions which contribute to substantive engagement. One of those conventions is giving the basis for a claim like this when requested.
I like to step in officially as admin to admonish those who are unreasonable in dealing with creationists... and I've done this to Percy before. I'll do it again, if warranted.
If Percy has been unreasonable then I am more than willing to step in on your behalf. But I also admit up front that I have an enormous respect for the manner in which Percy usually engages.
If you are sick of this and just want to find some other forum, I can understand that. Good luck, we'll miss you. If you would like to take advantage of a friendly admin, please cite a post clearly where you feel that you have been unfairly or inconsistently treated. I know you've been asked this before, and that you feel you have obliged. Alas, I don't follow all threads and issues.
But if you want, I'll follow this one right here. I need something more definite to work with please, like a link to a message.
Up to you. You are not obliged to pursue it, but if you wish, my offer is on the table.
Cheers -- AdminSylas
