Craig you asked why? and I’m answering. I’m not going to go to endless discussion with you about this.
First of all we are talking about Astronomy and Amateur Science forum. You have tried in the past to appoint yourself as moderator and change forum description. That did not happen and as such any one can contribute and express their thoughts about Science and Astronomy, however misinformed – from your point of view.
You have turned Astronomy & Amateur Science forum to virtual monologue and you have to have last word on anything.. No one to my best knowledge called you or Steven “ brute animal”. Any descent to your ideas you see as personal attack on you
I wonder how would you respond if someone ‘s response to post you made would be “ What a load of rubbish” ? You have used different expression but the meaning was same. The fact is that most of the members are avoiding this forum now and I see your attitude as main cause.
If you are seeking “to scramble their way into the rigid perspectives demanded by scientific rigor.” There must be number of forums with strict rules of the content that will suit your scientific pursuit better.
Until the owner of IIS chances rules, there are almost ten thousands of the members and they should be free to post in this forum without being ridiculed by some - I know everything - would be scientist.
