Dr. Shades' "MIA List"
Posted: Fri Apr 27, 2007 11:09 pm
Perhaps my favorite entry among the many excellent ones on Dr. Shades's blog is the one that lists the "Missing In Action" banned posters. It goes thusly:
I felt that this was worth bringing to the main forum, in case anyone knows where these folks are.
I was also curious about the "Purgatory" appellation. I have a pretty good idea as to why *I* have been consigned to Purgatory, but does anyone know what these other four posters did to merit it? In particular, I'm am wondering about "Serious" and "squallan"....
The following is a list of MA&D Exiles who are "missing in action." In other words, I don't know their stories and I don't know how to contact them in order to get their stories. There is a lot of history behind many of these names, and most or all would merit great entries, but alas, until they resurface they'll just languish on this list:
* Boy Named Sue
* Froggie (beloved member of many a message board)
* Ref (banned possibly for challenging DCP over the missing--and apocryphal--2nd Watson Letter)
* Dear Mee
* John Corrill (frequent champion of downtrodden polygamous women of yore, earned no lack of ire from Juliann and her crew of harpies for this)
* Cowpie
* Brentley
* antishock8 (message board frequent flyer)
* Pezp
* Nepheye
* James Clifford Miller
* Seneca, a.k.a. "Zedius," "Cicero," "Euclid," and "Primus" (listed as being in "Purgatory," an appelation the MA&D mods reserve for only those they really, truly hate)
* TheObserver
* hondo
* Serious (an LDS defender caustic enough to get banned, widely rumored to be a sock-puppet of "Hammer." For some reason, Serious is also in "Purgatory")
* Theophilus
* nao crer, a.k.a. "Jim Huston" (also in "Purgatory")
* Elihu
* yukonyon
* Yhote
* Rock
* squallan (yet another member of "Purgatory")
* Joey
* voice of reason
* bat, a.k.a. "captive thinker" (has a long history on MA&D, being one of its very first critics. Has an equally long history of being banned but reregistering under different names almost immediately afterward)
* Athena
* bammer (runs the website http://www.bornagainmormon.com)
* DG#23
* jlp
* Chozah (the sockpuppet Will Schryver used to insult Dan Vogel while simultaneously, under "Will Schryver," inviting Dan to be interviewed for an amateur documentary on ex-Mormons)
* Baptized1962
* Free From Mo's
(Keep in mind, however, that like "Serious" and "Chozah," some of these names may merely be sock-puppets.)
If you see your name on this list, by all means, please send me a Private Message so I can give you a proper entry.
