Daniel Peterson, just for general purposes of identification
When you appeared on Kevin's board, what was the nature of my responses to your posts?

Heh - maybe the DCP that appeared on KG's board wasn't really DCP. And maybe it's the same impersonator that has shown up here?
It's him. Otherwise, he would have complained on MAD about it by now. Shades did have the decency to remove the fake Gee posts, and I'd imagine he'd do the same for DCP if it's not really him.

I've been withholding final conclusion on whether it's really DCP or not who's posting here today under his name as I quite clearly remember him saying something like he only posts on one board and besides hell would freeze over before he'd ever post here in the cesspool (blatant paraphrase). Even if he is tired of being "misrepresented", my first and best guess is that he'd talk about it at MAD and wouldn't join the fray here.
However, I am very often wrong and this could be no exception.
For the record, I do especially dislike being misrepresented myself so on that point I understand where a person is coming from who seeks to set the record straight. The only way to do that definitively though is to clearly show demonstrable facts and/or have people take you at your word. Not always easy or possible. So we go round in circles. Even if hell freezes. :)

I think it's the real DCP. The very short, terse posts here I think are pretty typical of one of his conversational tactics, which is to deny that someone's comment about DCP's beliefs are correct, but offer no explanation at all by way of correction. The other posts on this board from famous names are too obviously parody in nature - these ones by DCP are straight down to business, with no obvious parody at all.
Mormonism ceased being a compelling topic for me when I finally came to terms with its transformation from a personality cult into a combination of a real estate company, a SuperPac, and Westboro Baptist Church. - Kishkumen

To be honest, Jersey Girl, I don't remember.
But if you doubt that this is the real Dan Peterson, simply drop a note to me via my e-mail address (which is, I think, accessible via the BYU website).
My answers here are terse because I have no intention of getting bogged down in an endless cycle of posts here. I simply want to correct false statements made about me, and be done with it. Those who insist that I'm a liar will, no doubt, continue to believe that I'm a liar. Those who aren't so sure will at least have heard what I myself have to say.

Try this then, what was the nature of your posts when you first posted on Kevin's board?
