Well I can always offer my opinion or two cents.
I love a great offer. I am offering a discount for anyone that can slam dunk a Mormon Apologist. You will save more than two cents and get a perfect night's sleep.

Slam dunk any apologist by asking them to tell you the name of the king in Facsimile No. 3. They won't be able to tell you the name of the king that Smith claimed was written in the very hieroglyphs of the register above the person he named as king.

It's so easy and great fun! Ram it down the throat of any apologist and it shuts them up, instantly.

I want my pillow now. Oh, yes, snuggle my pillow.

Done!
Got it. I am good for it. I feel like I owe you since I nominated you for a moderator role.

Sounds great, and I just replied back with my in real life, name.

Looking forward to getting my coupon codes.

I haven’t posted here since just after NOM was restored, for a couple of reasons, one being the lack of moderation. There are just too many trolls and too much insulting each other and moderation could clean that up.

Well, since I am giving my reasons, the other reason that I don’t participate much here is there is more arguing with the apologists than I am interested in. But I can skip those threads. I just see no point in arguing with people if I am confident they are idiots. Why wrestle with a pig in its pig pen?

But I obviously have been lurking. And this discussion has been the one thing that I felt I had a different perspective on, that could get me to register on the new version. So, having lurked for a few years, and not participated, partly because there are no moderators, and it shows, I figured you need to know you lose posters because of no moderation. You have trolls that just need to be banned, and you have posters that don’t do much except insult those on the opposite end of the political spectrum. Personally, I don’t find reading insults entertaining and I don’t want to participate in that kind of atmosphere.

Welcome! I hope that the return of moderation will encourage you to join in.

I called MyPillow and confirmed the order based on the number you provided me. There are two king pillows being sent to my home address.

THANKS YOU!

Woohoo. Hey, baby, what's the king's name in Facsimile No. 3?

SLAM DUNK!

Did you get the person's name? I will call them tomorrow and thank them. I hope you were happy with the service. Enjoy your sleep. Cultellus, I appreciate your testimony of the one true pillow.
