The way you keep targeting me here for... well, for what, exactly? (I honestly can't tell because you haven't even provided any links)...it’s the same thing; you could just send me all of this in a private message instead of cluttering up this thread with the kind of personal bickering you seem so keen on forcing. And I suppose that goes for everyone else, too.
I always have plenty of goodwill and time for people who remain civil.

Regarding the moderation situation, I'll only say three words: I have no idea who your comments about wanting to be a moderator are aimed at, since you haven't actually named anyone. Personally, after months of persistent, baseless accusations from my primary persecutor on this site claiming I have some desperate craving for a moderator role, I recently stated that it isn't even on my radar. In fact, I have never once suggested, nor have I ever shown any indication on this entire platform, that I have any interest in such a position (could you provide a link?). So, I really don't understand on what basis this one individual keeps pushing these fantasies, only to have a handful of people robotically echo them?
Ultimately, given my heavy personal commitments lately and the fact that I'm juggling two jobs, it's highly likely I'll be stepping away from the community due to a lack of time. Therefore, I am definitely not a candidate for moderator right now. 😁

What I will say, however, is that I—along with other members who witness the daily, blatant violation of the rules—repeatedly urge the administration to finally appoint a competent, unbiased, and fair moderator to the alternative section. We need someone who actually understands the subject matter they'd be overseeing, so we can finally put an end to this kind of crude disrespect and behavior that is frankly an embarrassment to our community.

Could you drop the link for that too?

Because... LINK It looks like you might have hit "send" a little too early! I’m standing by and ready to go—just let me know what you need me to work on, and I'll get right to it. LINKThey aren't lying...

Elizabeth Jackson says:
I’m asking because I honestly just can't wrap my head around it—how is it possible that after ten whole months, we still haven't stumbled upon a single genius like this? Out of hundreds of thousands of registered users, or even just dozens of people in the mix, you'd think someone would pop up who is basically a masterpiece of nature! I’m really on the lookout for some active, on-topic members who have been around the block for years without ever needing a slap on the wrist. I'm talking about those folks who truly live and breathe the topics we cover in our PDFs—people who actually get it! Ideally, I'd love to find someone who could step up and moderate things with real quality and professionalism, and honestly, they might even be willing to jump in as volunteers.
There is just no way they don't exist.

Alright, let's get this show on the road!

For someone claiming they’re "stepping away" from the community, acting like it’s some grand act of altruism to get everything organized before their "big departure"... give me a break. What a total load of nonsense. Honestly, can you get any more foolish, pathetic, or low than that? But of course, they’ll spin it to make it sound like they're doing it all for the "good of the community." Seriously? Give me a laugh! 🤦

Daniel Davis40 said:You've already said this a million times! You’ve basically just proven that you're a total bookworm who doesn't actually have a clue how any of this works in the real world! I’ve always been one to question everything! Honestly, if you're looking for a guru, you're only going to find one in me—everyone else is just someone I happen to call a guru after a little bit of thought.

Daniel Davis40 said:The absolute best part about this whole thing is that you actually took the time to dive into those books and then shared those specific quotes right here! But you just weren't being smart enough! Can you actually wrap your head around what you're reading and quoting? Because honestly, sometimes it feels like we're all just talking past one another! After everything that’s been said... Man, you’ve got all your bases covered right here! Honestly, when it comes to hemp oil, I just don't get it. I mean, seriously, how can anyone say that without feeling even a little bit embarrassed? It’s just pure nonsense!

Daniel Davis40 said:Honestly, I have to wonder—just how much of an absolute jerk does someone have to be to act like this? It’s honestly pathetic. You have to be such a bitter, miserable, and deeply frustrated person to carry that much negativity around. Seriously, what is wrong with you?

Daniel Davis40 said:Most people here—whether they’re skeptics or supporters (and personally, I fall into the first camp)—show up because they actually have an interest in raw food, but this troll has clearly shown his true colors. He doesn't have any real questions, he isn't looking for answers, and he certainly doesn't care about the truth; he's just here to mock and insult everyone. Honestly, you have to be incredibly miserable, lonely, wounded, and envious of others to make being a nuisance your entire reason for existing.

Daniel Davis40 said:Look, I'm not trying to dismiss science itself, just the shady practices within the scientific community, not to mention those brainless fanatics who don't even grasp the topic at hand.

Daniel Davis40 said:It is painfully obvious that you have zero self-awareness regarding how silly you sound. From where I'm sitting, it's clear your intelligence is at least half a standard deviation below anyone else on this board (and let's be real, you probably don't even know what that means, and if you try to Google it, there's a good chance you won't understand what you read).

Daniel Davis40 said:So why don't you take your little tantrums back to your mother, since she clearly didn't teach you anything useful.

Daniel Davis40 said:J
Even though I am significantly more educated than you, I come here to ask questions and get helpful advice on things I'm genuinely interested in. And I always manage to find it from people who aren't nearly as rude as you are, whereas I have yet to read a single intelligent thing you've ever posted. Your only goal seems to be getting in my way. Simply put, you're useless here.

It’s honestly pathetic that you feel the need to stoop to this level of conversation...

Daniel Davis40 said:J
In the future, I’m just going to ignore you because there's honestly zero point in talking to such self-absorbed idiots who don't even realize how clueless they actually are.

Look, Daniel Davis40, this is exactly why every single thread on PŽK eventually goes straight down the drain. You're looking for (just like everyone else here) some kind of justice for yourself , expecting politeness and decent manners, and then... well, look at your "contributions" over the last 24 hours. Honestly, the only real difference between you and someone like Exotericon is the specific vocabulary used. Though, if I'm being real, I'd probably rather toss him onto a bonfire altogether..
A little hypocritical, don't you think?

stormyrider28 said:Yeah, okay, so I joked once about wanting to make a few bucks just to be interested in being a mod... I really thought people would get that it was a joke... I don't care about being a moderator at all, not even if they paid me. But seriously, it makes zero sense that they can't find some kind of alternative moderator for an entire year, yet they let this one guy come in here and insult the whole Reddit community with every single post he makes...

What a bunch of lowlifes... man, you are seriously obsessed... this thread is literally about a female user opening up about a guy who insults everyone around him. Is it okay with you that someone is being that disrespectful? I don't see you offering any actual solutions, you're just obsessed with these gurus. And since there's only one person on this site obsessed with a guru—and we all know who—it's not hard to figure out which handles are hiding behind the screen based on the way they write. Thanks for the help and for basically outing yourself...
But right now, what matters is Quote : Exotericon.

Honestly, this really should have been the main topic from the very beginning—it would have made for such a great discussion! I’ve gotta say, it really bums me out seeing one of our own users getting targeted like that. One of the ladies on the forum was just venting about how that total jerk has been constantly insulting her, and honestly, it’s just not okay. It’s such a shame when a space that’s supposed to be for discussion turns into a place where someone feels picked on by a bully. We should all be doing better! And they’re out there looking for clear, solid protection from the administration. But then, you realize things have already started to shift... SECOND POST Wait, hold on—I think I missed a bit there! It looks like my thought cut off mid-sentence. Let me try that again! Sixth post! Hey there! Just checking in! Tenth post! It’s the same old story! We were right in the middle of a great discussion, but then everything went completely off the rails because someone started off-topic nitpicking about that "guru" Elizabeth Jackson. Suddenly, instead of sticking to the actual subject, we got sucked into his endless whining session about why he shouldn't be appointed as a moderator. It turned into a total mess and completely derailed the whole conversation. Such a waste!

Of course, just so they don't feel left out, another one of those self-promoting "aspiring moderators" is already jumping in! Fifth post! i Nineteenth post! He’s back at it again, trying to weigh in on who should be the next moderators. Seriously? It’s like we haven’t already seen exactly what this duo is capable of. We've watched their every move at least five times by now—we know their style, we know their "methods," and we definitely know exactly how they’d go about "managing" the threads and, more importantly, how they’d treat the rest of us users.

Honestly, this is just pure off-topic nonsense. We’re completely veering away from the actual complaint and getting sucked into some pointless, circular debate about one guy's ego. It's just a massive distraction from the issue at hand, and frankly, it's turning into one of those useless arguments over moderation that ends up getting seven or eight different threads locked down. Let's get back on track!

Here you go! Just some facts!Honestly, I don't get why nobody is doing anything about this. Seriously, why wouldn't we? Why doesn't everyone just hit that ignore button and move on with their lives? It’s so obvious: they love throwing insults around in every single thread, but only when they're picking on someone else. The second you actually call them out on it, suddenly they start whining like a little baby. It's pathetic! ☕

Either jump right in and defend your "guru," or just shoot him a private message to let him know he’s being brought up in the thread again! 🤦🤦
Well, let's see then—who's actually obsessed with what? Honestly, there's enough material here to spin this into two whole separate threads!

Daniel Davis40 said:Any updates here?

Look, I’ve already made it clear that I don't expect you to actually *do* anything—it's obvious enough that the rules don't mean a thing to you people. Message received.

But honestly, hiding behind silence and dodging direct questions is just cowardly. If you want to be fair—and let's be real, transparency isn't exactly your strong suit—you should just come out and state your actual policy toward alternatives. Just say it plainly: "We hate you, we don't want you here, you're freaks, and we want everyone to insult you until you never show your face on this Forum again." At least then we'd know where we stand.

I truly don't see why being honest is such a massive struggle for you. Hell, you could even just slide into my DMs to clarify things—I'd at least appreciate knowing what the deal is.

They won't act, they can't act, and they don't want to act.

They won't because there's no reason to; the Alternative crowd will eventually just fizzle out on its own.
They can't because if they actually applied clear, consistent standards, they’d probably have to permanently ban about 20 or 30 members based on the PDF guidelines. Who wants to take that on?
And they don't want to because, let's face it, swearing, insults, and constant bickering are fantastic ways to grab attention and drive up page views (which means more clicks and more ad revenue). That's the whole game! If a thread stays contained, it stays small and niche. But if you let the arguments and fighting spiral out, the view counts skyrocket, bringing in new members—and with them, those "tourists" who hop from forum to forum just to watch the chaos unfold. More views equals tangible results.

Simple math, right? 👍

Elizabeth Jackson said:Daniel Davis40 and Gregory Ramirez2, I think you both hit the nail on the head. 🙂

I feel quite certain, even from the very first post in this thread, that the admins are just going to tune us out. They’ll either dodge giving a straight answer or they'll just shut the whole topic down—which, if we're being honest, is what's happened a few times already. And yet, we still don't have any moderators in sight... who knows how much longer this will drag on... regardless of all that "intense effort" supposedly being poured into finding someone....

So, if I may be so bold as to ask— what kind of impossible standards does someone actually have to meet to alternative moderate this place properly and follow the rules of the Forum and its sub-sections?
I’m really not trying to be difficult here; I am genuinely curious since we haven't had any moderation for nearly a year now 🤦 and I believe we have a democratic right as users to expect the admins or supermods to actually give us a direct answer. I’m sure I’m not the only one wondering about these criteria.

The reason I'm asking is that I simply can't wrap my head around it. How is it possible that in ten months, they haven't found a single genius among the hundreds of thousands of registered users? Out of the dozens of active, on-topic members who have gone years without so much as a single warning, people who actually enjoy and understand the discussions in the PDFs and would likely moderate with high quality and integrity—even as volunteers?
It seems statistically impossible that such people don't exist.

Given that this search for a moderator has been going on for so long (it’s probably a record for any online community globally), I suppose you're looking for someone who is essentially flawless—someone whom absolutely no one could ever find a single thing to complain about.
As someone who is very active in the alternative section, I would truly love nothing more than for that to be the case.

To wrap things up, I have one very pointed question:
- What is the justification for not sanctioning any of the posts our colleague linked , when every single one of them represents the most blatant insults imaginable?
Please, just don't tell me we were supposed to report them by clicking the little icon and then wait... because we all know there are no moderators to see them, making clicking that button about as useful as barking at the moon....

I think you're missing the point entirely. The whole point of THIS THREAD is that there's this one total moron who has managed to scatter everyone—both sides—away from the Alternative. Just ask yourselves: who is this guy and why is he even here? He does nothing but insult people, fixate on specific individuals, and his only contribution to any topic is pure degradation and tearing threads apart. Personally, I'm not even bothered by his insults; I could easily give him a taste of his own medicine, but I don't want to stir the pot and make the smell even worse. Lately, most of the threads around here (largely thanks to him) have turned into exactly that: a giant pile of garbage. (And we all know what I mean).

Honestly, all you need is someone who’s level-headed, lives an honest life, and just doesn't give a flying rip about the emotional outbursts from people whining because their "own" threads aren't being validated by their supposed "expertise" (even while they turn around and belittle everyone else!).

The only thing that actually matters is that they respect common sense, have at least a basic grasp of the subject matter, and stick to the Forum rules and the PDF. That's it. Nothing more.

Generally speaking, based on what's been said, there are only two or three people basically running a campaign for this "job," and they're clearly the ones most desperate for an answer. To everyone else, even a lack of response is a response—people realize that the forum administration (who, at the end of the day, are just regular folks) has had quite enough of spending hours every single day "entertaining" self-promoters, trolls, and weirdos. You know, the types who try to turn a public space (available to everyone) into something private (reserved only for themselves and their buddies). It attracts the kind of personalities you'd usually find in certain "closed" institutions, whether they're medical or judicial. And then, after all that, someone else gets blamed for it! So, it’s honestly easier to just let the system, as Zecopas once put it, "reset itself" back to normal.
This whole situation actually happened before when moderation stopped after certain people (like Rorion and his crowd) left. Now, a new character has stepped up and kicked things off aggressively, and here we go right back to square one.

Given the constant descriptions of "perfection" (which, coincidentally, seem to perfectly describe the author of this little rant—“oh, please praise me”), I’d suggest looking up the definition of "moderator" in a standard American English dictionary. Maybe then we wouldn't have to deal with this kind of nonsense anymore. At least if those in charge are making decisions based on some sort of delusional fantasy, they should aim for actual competence.

In my book, a truly great moderator is someone who steps up to this chaotic thread and commits to handling it with total honesty and integrity. They shouldn't be afraid to roll up their sleeves and get a little ruthless when they have to—specifically when it comes to cutting down ungrounded claims that could actually jeopardize someone's health or even put a life at risk. We need that kind of decisive action to keep things safe! At the same time, I think a good mod needs to be an open ear. They should be willing to listen to any helpful advice that can offer a positive impact, even if it doesn't come from a traditional medical, pharmacological, or nutritional textbook. As long as that advice is practical and comes from someone who has actually proven their methods work in real-world situations, it deserves a seat at the table. It’s all about finding that balance between safety and genuine, actionable wisdom!

To be honest, things have been feeling pretty empty around here lately—and I mean that in a good way! We haven’t seen much of the usual nonsense. See, I truly believe that pushing sectarian, cultish, or fanatical religious agendas isn't what "Alternative" is about. It’s definitely not about being judgmental, belittling actual scientific breakthroughs, or peddling shady, low-quality websites that don't meet any standards. That stuff is just pure garbage, plain and simple. And let's get one thing straight: just because someone is "active" or posting constantly doesn't mean they're adding value. Quantity and quality are two very different animals! I’d much rather read three pieces of genuine, intelligent advice than wade through 2,000 posts of absolute trash. And don't even get me started on those people trying to prescribe their "special recipes" down to the milligram. Good grief! It's like they think they're prepping a high-stakes chemical reaction for explosives instead of just making a simple cauliflower, carrot, bouillon, and ginger smoothie. Honestly, give me a break!

Look, I'll be the first to admit that a few people around here have tried to push their own agendas and offer advice that doesn't actually align with the true Alternative. But honestly? It's pretty obvious they're just a tiny minority.

I feel quite certain, even from the very first post in this thread, that the admins are just going to tune us out. They’ll either dodge giving a straight answer or they'll just shut the whole topic down—which, if we're being honest, is what's happened a few times already. And yet, we still don't have any moderators in sight... who knows how much longer this will drag on... regardless of all that "intense effort" supposedly being poured into finding someone....

So, if I may be so bold as to ask— what kind of impossible standards does someone actually have to meet to alternative moderate this place properly and follow the rules of the Forum and its sub-sections?
I’m really not trying to be difficult here; I am genuinely curious since we haven't had any moderation for nearly a year now 🤦 and I believe we have a democratic right as users to expect the admins or supermods to actually give us a direct answer. I’m sure I’m not the only one wondering about these criteria.

The reason I'm asking is that I simply can't wrap my head around it. How is it possible that in ten months, they haven't found a single genius among the hundreds of thousands of registered users? Out of the dozens of active, on-topic members who have gone years without so much as a single warning, people who actually enjoy and understand the discussions in the PDFs and would likely moderate with high quality and integrity—even as volunteers?
It seems statistically impossible that such people don't exist.

Given that this search for a moderator has been going on for so long (it’s probably a record for any online community globally), I suppose you're looking for someone who is essentially flawless—someone whom absolutely no one could ever find a single thing to complain about.
As someone who is very active in the alternative section, I would truly love nothing more than for that to be the case.

To wrap things up, I have one very pointed question:
- What is the justification for not sanctioning any of the posts our colleague linked , when every single one of them represents the most blatant insults imaginable?
Please, just don't tell me we were supposed to report them by clicking the little icon and then wait... because we all know there are no moderators to see them, making clicking that button about as useful as barking at the moon....

Let me give you my two cents on this. Honestly, it’s the exact same reason why some users were once allowed to dump over 2,000 posts of absolute nonsense onto the Forum—I'm talking literal garbage. We’re talking endless rants about personal traumas, random life stories, and off-topic rambling that belongs on a therapist's couch rather than here on Alternative. Some people found it hilarious, and others jumped in to support it with all their heart, starting idiotic threads or just messing around in existing ones. It’s also the same reason why certain characters were "permitted" under the guise of being part of our community, even though they never actually wrote anything related to what we stand for. Instead, they just used their platform to insult other members and tear down whatever opinions people held.
It’s honestly for the exact same reason you see people around here clearly just pushing their own agendas and peddling all kinds of nonsense under the guise of "offering advice." They’re just dropping links to their own sites because they know that every single click translates directly into cash in their pockets. It's pretty transparent when you look at it!
And they’ve got it all wrapped up in a pretty little bow, calling it an "Alternative."
It’s really the same old story, isn't it? It goes back to that period when people were actually allowed to share medical advice—especially when you had folks dealing with serious stuff like cancer treatment. Back then, things were a bit of a free-for-all; you could write just about anything or coordinate private deals through direct messages. Honestly, if we're being real, none of that should have ever been part of a community built on basic decency and common sense, yet somehow, it was all just sitting there happening!
Honestly, the whole reason this thread was even started is just the icing on the cake. We’re back to talking about the same "controversial figure" and it’s the exact same old story. But now that this person is clearly getting on everyone's nerves, let's try to be "fair," shall we? Let's just single him out and go after him. It's not like he's going anywhere—sooner or later, he’ll move on anyway. Whether the site admins force him out or he just gets bored and leaves, it doesn't matter. Let's face it, the user base has dried up and most of these threads have gone completely dead.

And that's exactly why everything has gone totally south.

stormyrider28 said:Look, if you aren't actually Ethan Brooks59's clone, I’ll jump off the Empire State Building. It is so painfully obvious that you're only here to help drag Abraham down just like Ethan does. Honestly, there’s no difference between you two; you're basically twins. His obsession with Abraham is visible from miles away—he brings him up in every single thread and bores the entire forum, and you're just acting as his little hype man.

Here’s the deal: if you aren't a literal child, then you're an adult. And if you're an adult, you own your actions—legally, financially, and morally. If you're an able-bodied adult who owns their actions, then you should be more than capable of following through on what you say.

SO PLEASE, give me a date, a location, and a time for this supposed jump. I’ll make sure to document the whole thing, let the rest of the forum know you actually kept your word, and even put together a really nice obituary for you. You know, something classy with lions and all that sort of stuff. 😁

If you don't go through with it, though, it’s going to look like you're either dealing with some serious underlying issues or you’re just a total coward who can't stick to their guns.

So there it is. Aside from being a liar (I haven't bullied Naja for a single month; Naja just took one tiny sentence out of one single post and threw it at you, and clearly, it's getting under your skin because of your own "it's not the dog barking, it's the village" mentality), why don't you try being a real person instead of a complete zero? Here is your chance to actually stand by what you said.

But seriously now... Just send a message to Nice and ask for a review. If it turns out you were wrong, you owe both of us a public apology. Otherwise, you're going to end up with some pretty embarrassing nicknames. Hehe!

Look, stormyrider28, I honestly don't care if you want to obsess over recipes; write them, read them, swap them—do whatever you want. It’s your interest and your business.

But when some random nobody decides to take a private message—which is a punishable offense here—and blast it publicly for everyone to see, right after your big idol explicitly declared that I am that person? Well, now it starts affecting me personally. And if that kind of behavior triggers a massive reaction, we aren't talking about "swapping recipes" anymore; we're talking about inciting rule-breaking, or even actual criminal activity.
Do you see the distinction there? Maybe give that some thought before you reply.

Especially considering post where Abraham does absolutely nothing except peddle these "facts" he cooked up in his twisted mind regarding this specific individual.
Now you're claiming nobody was actually accused of anything? Do you want me to dig up the posts where the exact opposite happened, back when you were rambling away (along with Naja) claiming that I was accusing all of you (and yes, Naja listed you guys by name) of being responsible for that woman's death that you guys love to mock?
Your standards seem a little hypocritical, don't they?

No, nobody is under indictment. But a guy I haven't even spoken to committed a stupid act, and some foaming-at-the-mouth "guru" immediately jumped to conclusions about what it meant.

Roger Cooper91 said:Hey, feel free to keep messaging each other if you want—nobody’s stopping you! And even though I’m really not feeling this whole vibe, I’d honestly suggest to Ethan Brooks59 that he shouldn't bother replying to that leaked private message. It’s pretty obvious he was spot on when he called out your whole "pack mentality" approach. If you guys are getting all worked up just because someone saw through the act, well, that sounds like a "you" problem to me.

I’m posting this specific message here (just a quick correction: it wasn't "leaked," she posted it intentionally, likely with some pretty nasty intentions) for one single reason: this is where it belongs. It doesn't fit in the raw food discussion thread. I think most people would agree with that.
Once she posted it in that other thread, it stopped being a private message altogether; it’s public for everyone to see and read, and frankly, it was pure off-topic noise over there.

But anyway... as usual, Naja Naja didn't even bother reading this (the text Abraham wrote) and instead asks a totally nonsensical question (probably because she has me—and likely most of you—on her ignore list, so she misses half the posts anyway)... but hey, that’s just typical for her at this point.

The issue here isn't about people talking in DMs, chatting, or sharing different opinions. It becomes an actual problem when people manipulate reactions like that to coordinate "group" attacks on someone, or when they take advantage of the lack of moderation to wreck a perfectly good thread just to serve their own little interests.

On a side note—which is actually less important to me right now—is why Exotericon decided to drop that message into the thread in the first place, what his motives were, and whether he knew it could get him in trouble. Especially considering Abraham’s post from the day before, where he explicitly claimed that *I* am Exotericon.🤦 He was basically implying (along with Chillout) that I’m the one snooping around and posting people's private messages. But look, that stuff should be handled through the proper channels, following the forum rules and our community guidelines.
☕

What you just said—which was essentially what Nicin wrote when that cancer treatment thread was shut down—is the absolute truth. Everyone should get exactly what they deserve, by "deserve" I mean their fair share. But we really need to clean things up. Let's sweep the boards, tidy up, and if necessary, close or delete certain threads. If doing that helps improve the sub-forum and encourages more civilized discussions, then why on earth wouldn't we?

stormyrider28 said:So, why don't you tell us how on earth you know who's sending what kind of private messages to whom??? That was a bit of a slip-up, wasn't it?

Well, maybe try reading a little bit of what your "guru" actually writes in this thread before you blow your own cover.

Ibrahim-Pr said:I know. Don't worry, plenty of forum members already know about what I reported, we know exactly who we're dealing with.
And I'm not even talking about the mods or admins.

He's actually BRAGGING about it! Or maybe he just can't help but back himself up, even when he's turning against the very person he’s supposedly defending.
And check out this confirmation from this morning:
Quote : Exotericon's post

The kind of post our "Mr. Integrity" Ethan Barrett22 is passing around: "I just logged back into the forum after a few days and saw all the new posts—same old trolls pushing the exact same agenda.
I just wanted to say something to you and warn you to be careful - your posts are great and such a breath of fresh air in this thread, but watch how you talk to and address the trolls. I feel the same way you do, but be careful; even though officially nobody has been moderating this alternative scene for about 9 months now, I know from experience that occasionally those people who sit above the regular moderators swoop in to hand out warnings and bans specifically to people like us.
Best regards!"

So, what's next, stormyrider28? An apology? A "sorry, not sorry" shrug? The guy just showed up, has a handful of posts, and we don't even know his stance or what he believes in yet, but our buddy Ethan immediately jumps in with "warnings" and claims he "feels the same way" (which is only possible if they're the same person!) and suggests that bans are being handed out exclusively to "you guys" (who exactly are "you guys"? Is Ethan trying to say the moderation is unfair or just biased?)

It looks like you had a little "slip of the tongue," so what happens now? Ha! What are we supposed to say to stormyrider28's arguments now?

Honestly, the mere fact that this kind of thing is happening—now confirmed by his own "gems"—puts this whole group in the same category as a pack of wolves rather than people here with honest intentions. They're just promoting specific ideas in an organized way. It feels like a cult or something equally shady and bad... 😒👎👎

I knew it! I just had this feeling that the whole "entourage" would show up, led by their very own "guru," Ethan Barrett22, ready to launch into one of those massive, sweeping lectures.

Alright, let's roll up our sleeves and finally get this show on the road! It’s time to stop talking about it and actually make things happen.

Let's take this one step at a time:

In the thread about raw food:
Quote : Exotericon

chillout23 said:On top of all that—and hey, people can say whatever they want, but I’ve seen it with my own eyes—it's definitely true! Just so you guys know, there are certain people in this group who actually have access to private messages! So, just keep that in mind!

Quote : Exotericon

Ethan Barrett22 said:I know. Don't you worry about a thing! A lot of you guys on here probably already heard the news I shared earlier!Oh, come on, we all know exactly who we're talking about!
And let's be real, the moderators and admins aren't even part of this!

I’d love to get Nicole Johnson20, Anderlon, and maybe a few other admins on the line here to weigh in on this claim. I think we really need some official clarification!

If it turns out that anyone—and let’s be real, it’s pretty obvious which of us this "accusation" is actually aimed at (looking at you, Zecopas, myself, Roger Cooper91, or placidtinker39)—actually had the right or the opportunity to step up and issue a sanction immediately, then fine by me! I say go for it. But, on the flip side, if it’s found that... Chillout and Ethan Barrett22 (That second guy—who, let’s be honest, basically admitted he’s the one orchestrating and leading this whole angry crusade—did they actually have any real insight? Or better yet, did they just straight-up lie? Because that's exactly what they did.) Under the American legal code, we’ve got specific sections dealing with criminal offenses like Defamation, Libel, and Slander. It’s all laid out clearly to protect people from being unfairly maligned or harassed through false statements. Look, the description of all three posts is crystal clear. That’s why I’m calling for them to be sanctioned—honestly, we’ve had more than enough of these idiots polluting the forum with their mindless accusations. It’s getting ridiculous! They’re out here acting like every single one of us posting on Alternative is just some mindless clone fighting against their fake "counter-culture" crowd. It's exhausting!

Alright, let's dive into this. Regarding that post from Nicole Johnson20:
Quote : Exotericon

Nicole Johnson20 said:I just wanted to jump in here and let you all know that... Your cousin! (At least that’s what I remember reading in some old thread somewhere!) Monty is back at it again with the vulgarity! Honestly, if you spend more than five minutes scrolling through threads about alternative cancer treatment, you’re going to run straight into some of the absolute biggest piles of nonsense out there! It’s wild. You go in looking for actual support or maybe a different perspective, and instead, you just get hit with waves of total garbage. It's almost impressive how much misinformation can exist all in one place!:

Honestly, you really need a strong stomach to read stuff like this! If any of us participants were actually reading these kinds of things out loud, we’d all be heading straight over to the NSFW subforum just to find some peace and quiet.

Just like I told you right then and there, that was my direct response to those two absolutely terrible posts from your "friend" stormyrider28!
(Hey everyone! Just checking in. I think there might have been a little hiccup in the transmission! It looks like your message just says "i"—did you mean to send something else? I'm sitting here with my coffee, ready and waiting to dive into whatever you've got for me, so don't be shy! Just let me know what's on your mind, and we can get this conversation rolling. Can't wait to hear from you! Hey there! Just checking in.) .

Honestly, I’m just sitting here wondering why this kid feels the need to mock someone close to me who has passed away. Look, I am saying this under full responsibility—and I’m totally prepared to face the consequences if I have to—but this little brat is pure trash. This forum isn't, and absolutely should not be, a playground for people to act out or tear others down. And because we’re clearly lacking any real moderation around here, it’s basically turned into one. Out of 170 posts, about 130 of them are nothing but straight-up trolling and insults. Now, look, it’s not like you *can’t* ignore that stuff if you want to, but you clearly don't want to. The fact that you find the trolling "unreadable" or "impossible to watch," yet you thought making jokes about the deceased was somehow hilarious and fun, says everything about your character. That's exactly why you started this thread in the first place, isn't it? But hey, let's get some things cleared up once and for all.

Oh, please! It’s just as "logical" to accuse the forum moderator of being my relative and claiming I only get special perks because of family ties. Honestly, maybe that’s just your favorite way to spin things when you want to push an alternative theory about how moderation works around here!

Nicole Johnson20 said:Honestly, I’m asking you guys to please just delete the post—and honestly, doing so would be doing the original author a huge favor in the first place! Look, let’s just try to keep some dignity here and stop pretending we're all being civilized, shall we? See you next time!...or just lock the thread if people are going to keep posting stuff like that there.

Look, we’ve already had plenty of long-winded discussions about civility, basic politeness, and how we handle debates within these specific threads. It really comes down to this: if the topic is "raw food," then the conversation should actually be about using raw food in general. We shouldn't be narrowing everything down exclusively to cancer treatment—especially when people start making definitive medical claims that could actually get them in legal trouble! That's exactly why the previous thread ended up the way it did. Closed..

Quote : Exotericon

Ethan Barrett22 said:I honestly think it’s time to lay all the cards on the table. Seriously, people—let's stop kidding ourselves!

Exotericon is Ethan Brooks59.

So, check this out—this clone profile was only set up about a week ago (back on November 27, 2018). At first, they were playing it cool, dropping a few posts in the politics section just to blend in and avoid looking suspicious. But then, out of nowhere, they totally pivoted! Suddenly, they’re flooding everything with posts about raw food and miracle cancer treatments, all while being incredibly rude and insulting everyone in sight. It's pretty wild how fast they switched gears! 🤔

And then, to top it all off, everything else mentioned above just goes downhill from there—getting even worse and, frankly, even stupider!

And now, I’m actually going to reach out to the forum admins about this one! Time to put the squeeze on Ethan Barrett22! It looks like he’s finally facing some consequences for his actions. Honestly, I really hope this guy finally decides to move on from the forum for good. It’s getting pretty intense—he clearly needs some serious help and professional support. His obsession has totally crossed the line from being just "eccentric" into territory that just isn't healthy or normal anymore.
It’s all so incredibly obvious now, isn't it? Honestly, the one thing I just can't wrap my head around is how someone like that can go around peddling this whole persona of being "calm" and sophisticated, only to pull the mask off and show everyone who they really are. And then, of course, you have this entire pack of followers trailing behind him like he’s some kind of messiah, reacting to every single move he makes. It makes me wonder if we should take a closer look at who is actually copying whom, right? Since everyone seems to be watching so closely anyway!
It’s just his classic move—this totally hypocritical, two-faced persona he puts on whenever you try to pin him down with an actual question. As soon as things get specific, the mask slips, and he immediately pivots into nothing but insults and personal attacks! ☕

To keep things short and sweet: this is the format we’re going with! ad hominem, Honestly, acting without any sense of logic or decency is just wrong. To go out and accuse "certain people" of being able to read everyone's private messages—just because they’re venting their own frustrations by spamming followers with DMs—is completely unacceptable behavior in a civilized society. It really needs to stop. If this kind of thing is allowed to slide, then there's no point in playing by the rules anymore. We might as well just switch to a "free-for-all" style, much like how Bonecrusher was allowed to act, or how it seems some others get a free pass all the time...

Look, I’m not interested in getting into who this Exotericon person actually is. We have moderators and admins here for a reason, and I’m certainly not giving him any platform to drag this out.

But honestly, after everything that just went down, the absolute bare minimum I expect from some of the "followers" in this group is an apology. I mean, seriously, what is even happening with this whole Alternative scene? You all displayed such a staggering level of "calmness," "civility," and "class"—if you can even call it that—while following those raw food fanatics. It was basically just a pack of losers trying to act trendy, peddling ideas that clearly have zero substance behind them. There aren't even any true raw food enthusiasts here—you know, the kind who actually defend their views with real arguments. But hey, I guess that’s just "doing it your way," as your guru would say.

Honestly, I feel like I’m going in circles here! Reporting this user post by post within the Fringe science section just doesn't seem to be getting anywhere, so there's really no point in doing it that way anymore. That's why I'm bringing this over here—I am just begging for some kind of reaction from the mods! For several threads now, we've actually had open discussions on the PZK regarding this specific user's "writing style." Even though people report him constantly, Bonecrusher hasn't technically broken the hard rules yet, but he has this incredible knack for provoking people in a way that turns every single thread into absolute chaos. He basically just nukes them.

Take his thread about the Titanic, for example; he filled it with such nonsense it was actually chilling. Then there was the "moon landing: truth or lie?" topic, which became completely unreadable because of him. He even cooked up a thread about Paul McCartney just because he felt like dropping a bunch of YouTube links to songs. And don't even get me started on the Great Pyramid of Giza thread—he turned that into a total playground for bullying and making fun of everyone. Seriously, when does it end?

So, here is a collection of posts from that Giza thread that really ought to be reported for ad hominem attacks, off-topic rambling, and straight-up trolling, if nothing else.

As an example of his "knowledge" regarding Giza, he claims it's like a wall in Jerusalem.

Just a duplicate of the same post.

And on top of all that, he constantly accuses other users of being clones of one another! According to him, neoneagle93, Zombie666, zecopas, Ethan Brooks59, Roger Cooper91, Smartfart, hepokS2, and hawker are all just bots or clones. So, if it makes things easier for the staff, maybe you could check out this supposed "criminal gang" consisting of just one guy (who is probably one of the people listed above).

Between posting complete nonsense and inserting fake quotes into his profile signature, he's already been reported here on the PZK, but nothing ever happened. Because of that, he just keeps up this little "hobby," depending on which user happens to call him out in a thread.

Well, Lena, looks like you're about to be declared my clone too, so get ready for the same fate! Basically, Nancy has me on her ignore list, which means she doesn't even see my posts. She isn't actually replying to yours; she's replying to mine while pretending to talk to you. 😁 And honestly, it’s always the same pattern: she’ll snap at you, claiming you said one thing when you actually said something completely different—leaving you scrambling to find links to prove you didn't say what she claims you said. Of course, then someone like stormyrider28 will jump in just to insult you and attack you, demanding you produce links to prove you AREN'T saying what they insist you are. That’s really the level of discussion we're dealing with in this "pack"—they do nothing on this thread except troll and throw around ad hominem attacks.

fadedgull42 said:Oh, Lena, sweetie , I’m not even speechless or in shock. That’s the first thing. What bothers me isn't the insults, it's the lies. THE LIES. The lying, the twisting of arguments, acting like you're some kind of saint who deeply cares about healing people, pretending you've come to us with nothing but good intentions and helpful advice when in reality you only showed up to stir the pot and lecture us all.

Just so there's no misunderstanding, Nancy and Lena are attacking each other because they think I'm actually Lena. They're doing it just so they can later claim that the links "disappeared."

fadedgull42 said:That's why I mentioned defamation, because it's not just about a VALUE JUDGMENT like an insult; it also involves MAKING FALSE STATEMENTS. And no, I wasn't threatening a lawsuit (another lie!), I was simply noting that a crime had been committed.

Now our resident "legal expert" Nancy is trying to wiggle her way out of the mess she created.

But here is how it actually started:

"Monty, you clearly accused the alternative crowd from the American forum—not just anyone, but those specific people, namely me, Elizabeth Jackson, Robert, Mark, etc.—of being responsible for someone else's death. And I know exactly what we promote, because unlike you, I actually read what other people write."

To which the response was THIS::

"Show me exactly where and provide a quote.
It was very clear.
Where did I specifically mention YOU, Elizabeth Jackson, Robert, Mark, etc.?
If you find that post... I'll ask for it to be deleted. If you can't, then give me a public apology and delete this post, and I won't report you. Deal?"

And that's when the retreating started.

Then comes a string of posts that lead directly into a NEW ATTACK

Followed by yet another attempt I honestly don't know how much longer I can deal with these constant stops! It feels like every time I get some momentum going on the road, everything just grinds to a halt. It’s one of those things that really tests your patience, you know? One minute you're cruising along, feeling great, and the next—bam—red lights and stop signs everywhere. It makes me feel like I'm barely moving at all! Stories:

So, what comes next? I honestly don't know how I haven't said this a thousand times already, but I am just absolutely obsessed with the Rafale! Seriously, can we talk about this thing for a second? It is such an incredible piece of engineering. Every time I see one of those jets on the news or at an airshow, I find myself completely mesmerized by its design. There’s just something about that sleek, aggressive silhouette that makes my heart race a little bit—maybe I'm just a huge nerd for aviation, but hey, there's no shame in that, right? It’s not just about the looks, though. The sheer versatility of it is mind-blowing. The way it handles multi-role missions is nothing short of legendary. It feels like the ultimate "do-it-all" machine, and I mean that in the best way possible. I could spend hours reading up on its flight specs and tactical capabilities, and I still feel like I haven't scratched the surface. It’s just one of those pieces of tech that makes you stop and say, "Wow, humans are actually capable of building something that cool." Anyway, I might be rambling, but I just had to get that off my chest! Does anyone else get this excited over fighter jets, or am I totally alone here? So, out of those eight names I straight-up called out as killers—and yeah, that includes you, Lena!

After everything I just tried to explain to you... man, I really thought I was making sense there! I feel like I've been talking in circles trying to get this point across, but I guess I'm just not quite hitting the mark. Let me try one more time to break down exactly where the issue lies!

And there it is! Finally, the answer to the whole saga:

fadedgull42 said:So, I actually went ahead and asked him if he was shaking in his boots! (I decided to go with that old "fight fire with fire" approach, especially since he’s always so quick to point fingers and judge everyone else for their own mistakes! I just knew that bringing up defamation would be a total home run!...alluding to his fear, of course! A The absolute best proof that he was genuinely terrified? It’s the fact that he started hallucinating things that weren't even there! Specifically, he caught a glimpse of my—well, let's just say my very "enthusiastic" state of arousal at the time. You know what they say, though: fear really does make your eyes see things that aren't actually there! 😉

That thing is absolutely massive! Honestly, I think we need to talk about this whole concept of being "offended." You know, that feeling where someone says something just slightly off, and suddenly it feels like a personal attack? I’ve definitely been there myself—trust me, I can be a bit sensitive sometimes!—but lately, it feels like everyone is walking on eggshells. It’s like we're all constantly bracing for impact, waiting for someone to take issue with a joke or a casual comment. Personally, I try to keep things lighthearted and upbeat, but I realize that what feels like harmless fun to me might sting for someone else. It's a tricky balance, isn't it? Finding that sweet spot between being respectful and actually being able to speak our minds without a massive drama erupting every five minutes. I'm still figuring it out, but I really believe that if we approach each other with a little more grace and a lot less defensiveness, things would be so much smoother for everyone! Which one was Elizabeth Jackson or stormyrider28 talking about? Is this that poor "Nancy" girl they’re all trying to protect? Honestly, she went in there looking for trouble on purpose, got exactly what was coming to her based on her own words—and now she's even admitting why she did it! But the second Elizabeth Jackson started typing, suddenly she's playing the "offended lady" card. Poor thing, isn't she? 🤦🤦
Well, at least she was kind enough to give us the details on how everything went down! I’m honestly asking the admins to step in here—feel free to come after me first if you have to! But once that's settled, I really think everyone who jumped on this bandwagon to start this whole harassment campaign and those nasty ad hominem attacks needs to be held accountable. Specifically, let's start with Elizabeth Jackson, fadedgull42, Arsen, stormyrider28, Bonecrusher, and Benny. It’s just gotten way too out of hand! It really seems like everything is being handed out based on who people think "deserves" it and how they interpret the forum rules!

fadedgull42 said:Look, just to clear the air—I wasn't actually the one who brought up that post in the first place! It was stormyrider28 who mentioned it. I only jumped into the conversation to stick up for him because the post ended up getting deleted, which makes it impossible to quote the whole thing as proof. Honestly, I was just stepping in to defend him, not myself!

Honestly, I didn't think I’d ever be the type to say this, but here we go—a huge THANK YOU to fadedgull42! Seriously, you really are a total genius. 👍👍

Now, moving on to the second part of this whole thing:

fadedgull42 said:So, this controversial user is making it crystal clear that the late lady lived her life following the advice given by alternative types over at Reddit, which really hits home for me right here. You get what I mean? He wasn't even talking about this specific forum, even though there are plenty of alternative enthusiasts hanging out here too: http://www.alternativa-forum.com/.

Here is the original text:
"Listen, to all the wonderful 'advice-givers' on Reddit, I just walked away from the funeral of a 53-year-old regular reader of this thread who lived her life strictly by alternative medicine tips. She stuck to a raw food diet, and then, when she was finally diagnosed with kidney cancer, she turned her back on chemotherapy and doctors (calling them killers and poisoners) to go try some 'alternative' way to fight the disease."

Just to be incredibly clear—for the seventh time now: She followed the guidance of people (on this forum and various others, sites, and blogs) who suggested an alternative approach to treating cancer instead of following medical science. And yes, some of those suggestions are actually present here, coming from people acting like they're "experts."
I didn't call anyone out by name; I just recommended to everyone that they stop doing this because it’s genuinely harmful.
One example of such "advice" can be found right here:

"THE ULTIMATE ADVICE"

After that comment, the author just snapped back with, "We aren't dealing with minors here, so people should know what's okay and what isn't."
🤦🤦

fadedgull42 said:Now let me ask you, if someone reads this forum and misinterprets our advice, whose fault is that? Is it the fault of the person giving the advice, or the person who just happened to glance at it? If a doctor prescribes a treatment to a patient, but then the patient carelessly takes Pill A in the morning and Pill B at night instead of the other way around, whose fault is that? Is it the doctor's, or the patient who failed to follow the prescription?

But if a doctor gives aspirin to someone with hemophilia, they'll be staring at a blank wall for the next 15 years. Guaranteed. Because a doctor has actual responsibility and puts their NAME behind what they do.
Meanwhile, we have all these nonsensical ideas being tossed around here left and right (hidden behind usernames—which is why I honestly wish these people would test their own advice on themselves first!) while simultaneously encouraging people to reject medical treatment. They claim every cancer can be cured with baking soda, carrots, apple seeds, beets, or methods that are proven frauds. It’s a total disaster. Plain and simple.
It's pure shamanism and it's dangerous for everyone.

Nicole Johnson20 said:Man, there’s just so much junk out there you wish you didn't have to read! Seriously, sometimes it feels like you're wading through a mountain of absolute nonsense just to find one decent sentence. It's exhausting!Look, I don't think it's actually a huge deal that he called her out for being wishy-washy. Honestly, that's just his opinion. The real issue here—the part that actually bothers me—is how she chose to react to it. That's where things went sideways. I mean, honestly, what could she have possibly said to you in that moment? It sounds like one of those situations where you’re just completely floored—totally speechless and stuck in total shock!
I have to admit, I’m really not a fan of how those alternative crowd types went out of their way to pick a fight just to stir the pot—and what’s even worse is they were actually bragging about how successful they were at getting a reaction!

So, I’ve realized there are actually two main problems here.
She was actually the very first one to post that, and honestly, what she wrote was just... well, you know! In her own words. Honestly, I couldn't care less about her or her little "attitude." Seriously! The entire thing is based on a total misunderstanding of what was written in that Google bio of Abraham's. He wrote it that way for his own reasons, sure, but that’s all there is to it. That’s why I’m asking for someone to actually step in and take a look at the posts Nancy and I made. Please, just review them and clear up this absolute nonsense once and for all. And frankly, I think an apology is in order after all this. As for why she didn't speak up or correct things right when they happened? Well, you'll have to ask her! It’s funny how she only suddenly remembered this whole drama now that Abraham has updated his profile again. If she had just bothered to look at the original text, she would have seen there wasn't a single insult in there!

Then there’s the whole second part of this mess: Nancy is actually threatening criminal prosecution! And for what? Some supposed "defamation" that she suddenly can't find any actual evidence for. Instead of facts, she just relies on those ridiculous lines like, "it’s obvious," or "everyone knows what I mean." Honestly, it’s such nonsense. She has this habit of projecting her own conclusions onto other people—basically putting her own opinions and "it seems to me" assumptions into someone else's mouth. But the second you call her out on it and demand some proof, she immediately retreats, plays dumb, and hopes everyone just forgets the whole thing ever happened.
Look, she made it crystal clear right here that I straight-up called her a murderer. Honestly, I have to ask—how would you even react if I, or anyone else on this board, decided to label you a killer right in front of everyone? And then just kept doubling down on it, post after post? It wouldn't feel great, right? It would be pretty upsetting. Would you just sit there and let it slide, or would you demand some kind of verification? Of course you'd want proof! But when there isn't any evidence to back it up, what’s left to do? At some point, you just have to find a way to move past it.
Maybe I would, but honestly? Not a chance. If I have to, I’ll be looking into pushing for some serious sanctions because what we're dealing with here is nothing short of outright slander. Seriously! If you actually have a moment to spare, do me a favor: try digging through the archives on cancer treatment research. Just take a look at how many times I've specifically asked where my previous work was posted. And you know what? Absolute silence. Not a single response. It's pretty frustrating, to say the least!

That’s exactly how it goes. You’ve got this bunch of nobodies who ended up feeling slighted, and now they're trying to get their revenge through cheap ad hominem attacks. They're basically weaponizing the fact that the thread hasn't been moderated yet just to take shots at people. Typical!
The funniest part about all these "constructive" critics is that not one single person had the good sense to just start a new thread with a different title and post their thoughts there! But honestly, it’s pretty obvious that the issue goes way deeper than just how we organize our discussions... 🍿

stormyrider28 said:Oh, give me a break... you aren't actually insulting anyone by saying that. You're acting like someone putting a random link in their signature—something that has absolutely nothing to do with the rest of us—is some massive scandal that’s keeping you up at night. Seriously, what kind of logic are we using here? And when you ask if Brenda Gonzalez12's signature is the biggest issue of all? No way. The real problem was his actual insults toward people, which you saw for yourself right here. Do you honestly think that's okay?

Are you ever going to just drop the whole thing with Brenda Gonzalez12 and stop with the ad hominem attacks?
Honestly, you're becoming exhausting and just plain tedious... out of 120 posts, 50 of them are aimed directly at me. Are you seriously this obsessed? It's getting a little weird. Who even are you? Are you just Robert showing up under a new handle thinking you're being clever? Please, give it a rest... 😵😵🥱🥱

neoneagle93 said:And of course, the very person who started this whole PETA-style mess is still breaking the rules left and right!
Seriously guys, how much longer is this going to go on?
What exactly did this "gentleman" do to deserve such a free pass from the mods? Why are we just looking the other way?

The guy is actually "elegantly" editing quotes to make it look like other people said things they didn't even write!
And apparently, that’s perfectly fine according to the forum rules?!?!!?!?!

I'm right there with you. He even stuffs his signature with these totally nonsensical theories and pretends they belong to other users. It's basically just a fancy way of saying he's manipulating quotes, which should definitely be a punishable offense.

And he does it all the time.

Ethan Barrett22 said:It looks like you might have sent an empty message or just a symbol! If there was a specific post or piece of text you wanted me to transform into that upbeat, detailed, and uniquely American voice, please go ahead and paste it. I'm ready to get to work!

Alright, let me jump in here and see if I can shed some light on what was being quoted!

It’s the honest truth—everything fadedgull42 said is spot on. Brenda Gonzalez12 really did insult her exactly the way she described.

So, I noticed that the controversial post where he was actually being straight-up insulting to her was deleted, yet somehow there weren't any sanctions handed out at all. It feels a little weird, doesn't it? 😕 (along with about 20 other posts where they were incredibly rude and insulted everyone who didn't agree with them, one by one). 😕😕😕

Well, since Google’s servers tend to hold onto things a little longer than most, I had a pretty easy time digging this up! Honestly, my memory is still sharp enough to recall exactly how much Brenda Gonzalez12 was throwing shade, so I just popped it into the search bar and found everything I needed in no time.
That controversial post was definitely published on September 23, 2018—just like fadedgull42 said! If you head over to page 178 of the cancer treatment thread, you'll find everything you need!It’s just like how... Hey everyone! Just checking in here! Sure thing, I can take a look!
You can all see pretty clearly now just by looking at the language they're using! Brenda Gonzalez12 was being incredibly disrespectful! fadedgull42 (marked in blue). 🤦

For some reason, that post didn't even get a slap on the wrist! Not even a yellow card. 🤷...not to mention that whole pile of blunt, pretty harsh insults from Brenda Gonzalez12, which I've personally... Hey there! Just checking in right here! I just threw a few things out there!

I'm going to step back from this topic now and leave things in the hands of the moderators to do their thing—they know how to handle it! Honestly, I just wanted to lend fadedgull42 a hand regarding that controversial post.

Hey there! Sending some good vibes your way!

So, come on, Elizabeth Jackson, tell me something—why didn't fadedgull42 react right away when it happened? Why didn't she jump on it immediately as an insult? Instead, she just sat there waiting for YOU to be the one to point out that it was actually an insult! Honestly, it’s kind of adorable and super interesting to watch. You two have such a fascinating dynamic going on, don't you? Ha!

Look, Elizabeth Jackson, you see what's happening here? You’ve taken a tiny snippet of my sentence completely out of context—something you didn't even ask for, mind you! Honestly, it's such a shady move. It feels like you're totally obsessed with my posts (and let's be real, it's pretty obvious now that you're absolutely livid!), but you're just cherry-picking words to twist them. It's like you're reading everything I write offline and then coming back to respond in this weirdly detached, neutral way. Seriously!🤦 It looks like you don't even have the energy to give me a straight answer!
And honestly, even the snippet you pulled to build that sentence looked a little off to me! It was basically just a reaction to what Nica was writing—which, let's be real, wasn't exactly making much sense anyway.Does anyone else feel like they're going to get harassed by every single person out there if they start asking around for links? It feels like once you put that request out into the universe, everyone and their mother is going to be jumping down your throat!" (Come on, Naja, be real with me here—just admit it! Is this actually your writing? I’m already reaching out to the site admins to see if there are any other original posts floating around so we can finally get to the bottom of this and find out what's true. It feels like she’s just trying to prove a point at this stage. And honestly, that’s exactly what fadedgull42 is getting at when she writes...So, where was it that Brenda Gonzalez12 insulted me? It was one of those subtle, shady little digs—he was basically insinuating (I think!) that I was getting all turned on or something. Honestly!Alright, let's see what all this "excitement" is actually about and what exactly she’s so worked up over! Honestly, if she finds that kind of thing stimulating, then hey, that’s her business and her problem. But here’s the thing: you can't just go around throwing threats at people and then act like nothing ever happened. That's just not how decent, normal communication works in the US, and it's definitely not going to fly with me!

Honestly, all they really needed to do was drop a link to the original post to prove their point! It’s not that complicated, right? I honestly can't help myself—I just have to share this! It’s one of those things that really belongs to me, you know? Like, it’s my own little corner of the world, completely my own. I feel so much more connected to it when I think of it as being uniquely mine! threat It’s honestly the same old nonsense we see from stormyrider28—that ridiculous tactic where he demands everyone else prove his own points just because he’s backed into a corner. It’s basically what happens when Elizabeth Jackson starts rambling once she realizes she’s got absolutely nothing left to say! Anyway, apparently, someone is planning to file a formal police report regarding... Lies (really?). All she had to do was provide a link to the specific post where I supposedly DIRECTLY accused > of being a killer (🤦????), which is exactly what she loudly claimed I did. Instead, she totally lost her nerve, covered her ears, ran away, and went silent. Since then, she hasn't said a single word about it—not even in her wildest dreams would she bring it up. And oh, how "offended" she was! What a coincidence that she suddenly remembered all of this yesterday, right after you lot started swarming the thread like a pack of wolves at the exact same time. It’s actually pretty fascinating how "hypnotized" you are, >; it would be worth looking closer at who is actually writing what and who is egging whom on.

You know, >, aside from the fact that you’re basically committing crimes here by handing out medical advice without any training, every single one of your posts proves that you are, as a self-appointed moderator, one of the absolute worst solutions for any sane person. You're just a pathetic, dishonest mess. And yet, you're powerless, because despite acting like a "know-it-all" expert, your supposed "mastery" over these topics has been exposed as pure charlatanism. For all your "expertise," it's become painfully obvious how miserable it actually is, since it's all built on links from scammers and frauds. 😁

Honestly, I’m glad you’re attempting to lead this crusade, because you're essentially revealing your true colors and showing everyone exactly how you’d moderate if you were ever put in that position. At least > is intelligent enough to stay quiet and let others take the praise, but that seems way too hard for you; you're losing your cool more and more with every post. Hehe
. It's pretty funny seeing a hardcore vegan with this much energy... though maybe there's more to uncover soon...

Jerry White29 said:Brenda Gonzalez12, you're seriously typing on two computers at once again...

Oh, absolutely! You too.
But hey, I actually have two hands... do you? 😁😁👍👍

On a side note, what happened to that whole list of our clones? You, me, neoneagle93, zombie, smart Farth, HepokS2... honestly, who could even remember them all anymore? It feels like nobody even bothers mentioning them lately..
🍿

stormyrider28 said:Hey, neoneagle93! I see you’ve finally noticed it too. It looks like Brenda Gonzalez12 has been rocking that signature for months now, and honestly, it’s a total mess. Not only is it breaking all the rules by being way too long—it takes up way more lines than what we're allowed—but it’s actually pretty toxic. She’s out there using it to insult and harass other members, which is just not okay. It’s definitely time someone did something about it!
Hey Nico, would you mind taking a look at this and getting it sorted out? Thanks!

If you’ve actually got something meaningful to contribute, please do me a huge favor and report it to the moderators up top instead of just cluttering things up! Honestly, just dump your thoughts over on the LJES or the US boards. It’s really not that hard—just read the rules once in a while before you start trying to lecture everyone else. Thanks!

stormyrider28 said:Brenda Gonzalez12, when I mentioned those links! I was actually referring to those accusations you made! Honestly, you’ve been going after everyone else, but especially Elizabeth Jackson! Ever since I started following this alternative sub, it feels like you're constantly attacking her and throwing insults her way. What really bugs me, though, is that you never actually bother to drop a single link to any of her posts to prove she was even breaking the rules. It just feels constant!

Do I really need to link your own post just to prove you're lying? You basically took a massive dump on my reputation! You wrote exactly what you wanted to say, but man, you really stepped in it this time. It’s honestly hilarious because it reminds me exactly of how fadedgull42 messed up—remember when she was throwing around all those threats about defamation lawsuits? She couldn't actually find a single thing to back herself up, so she just tucked tail and ran. Now she’s just hiding away behind an "ignore" list. So, come on, why don't you show me these "horrific profanities" regarding najin maca that supposedly had you so worked up? You acted like it was your own personal tragedy! Did you actually find them and post them here? NO, you didn't. Seriously, stop with this nonsense, gnu. You're just trolling the thread with ad hominem attacks because of some obviously twisted motives.

Look, if Elizabeth Jackson needs a lawyer or just someone to walk her through things, she’ll find one herself. There’s really no need for you to step in acting like her legal counsel—unless, of course, you’re actually some sort of clone profile of hers! Honestly, she knows exactly where she stands and exactly how she messed this up. From here on out, she should probably just keep it quiet and stop handing out all that "brave" advice to everyone else.
If you're really dying to know what actually went down, just go ahead and ask him!

stormyrider28 said:He really is the gold standard for what a forum member should be—honestly, just like Gregory Ramirez2! Honestly, if you look at their track record, I don't think they've ever even been banned! They really are the gold standard for how to be a decent, respectful member of an online community.And honestly, I’m pretty certain that even people like that are... There is absolutely no way they would ever dream of hurting anyone! Honestly, they would make absolutely incredible moderators! And honestly, if we're looking at who else could step up, there are plenty of other great candidates too. I have to say, fadedgull42 is such an incredibly sharp and genuinely classy person to have around here on the forums! Honestly, I really think she’d be an incredible moderator! She just has that vibe, you know? She’d be absolutely perfect for the role. Honestly, if you’re looking for someone to bring onto the team, you really can't go wrong with the folks who are deep into alternative methods but have also proven themselves to be incredibly professional and level-headed. They've shown they know their stuff, but more importantly, they actually play well with others. To me, those are exactly the kind of people who would be a stellar choice!.
There are a few others on the list too, like chilout23, though I think they mentioned somewhere that they aren't really interested in taking on the role. And then there’s Gregory Ramirez2—man, if only he had access to some alternative treatments if the standard options aren't working out... Honestly, being a moderator sounds like a pretty tough gig! Honestly, that’s just not for me. It sounds like such a massive undertaking, and frankly, it would take way more time than I could ever spare! I'm already running around like crazy as it is...

Honestly, it feels like you only jumped into this thread to play the part of a clone or some kind of parachute blogger—you clearly haven't done any homework on the topic at all! You started off by throwing out a few inaccuracies right out of the gate, which pretty much disqualifies you from being taken seriously as a voice for change here. Look, you’re more than welcome to hold your own opinions, but that’s really not what this discussion is about.

Ethan Barrett22 said:Gregory Ramirez2, you’re absolutely spot on! Honestly, it isn't even worth the headspace to worry about them. Half the people on this forum are already on my ignore list anyway, and by tomorrow, I’ll probably have the other half blocked too!
Look, I get where everyone is coming from, but honestly, that doesn't excuse the fact that the moderation has been totally nonexistent for months now. That’s exactly why we’re seeing people run wild and break the rules in the most embarrassing ways possible! It's just a direct result of nobody keeping an eye on things.
Oh, come on! We totally believe in Nica, and honestly, we’re just counting down the days until the PDF finally gets some actual moderators on board!

Look, I’m just going to say it right here, loud and clear, without even a second of hesitation: Nica, I am absolutely, 100% recommending YOU!
Of course, if you even can—and if you actually want to!

You are honestly the gold standard for what a forum member should be! You’re such a class act that I’m convinced you’ve never even seen a warning, let alone been banned—and honestly, you handle everything here in the most wonderful way possible. Honestly, looking back at everything we've built here, I’m just feeling incredibly grateful! I truly value the reputation I’ve managed to build on this forum over the years. It means the world to me that I’ve been able to maintain such a solid standing among all of you—not just because I love chatting, but because I genuinely strive to be someone who plays by the rules and keeps things respectful. I’ve always believed that being a "big deal" in a community isn't about ego or acting like you own the place; it’s about being consistent, staying fair, and treating everyone with a bit of decency, even when the debates get heated. I try my best to stay level-headed and keep my interactions helpful and polite, regardless of the topic. To me, being seen as a reliable, decent member of this group is way more important than any fancy title. I just want to be that person you can count on for a constructive conversation without all the unnecessary drama!
Honestly, I truly believe—and I’m being 100% serious here—that we won't find anyone better than this. I am completely convinced that they would more than live up to everything Nicin is hoping for!

...

Gregory Ramirez2 said:Logically speaking, moderators should really be the champions of alternative viewpoints—decent, reasonable people who actually know how to carry themselves. Take Elizabeth Jackson, for example. Now, look, she’s definitely not a saint—let's be real, nobody is!—but she isn't out there hurling insults or making a spectacle of herself just for the sake of it. Alternatively, you could have neutral parties who might not even follow the alternative scene closely, but they'd exist simply to keep the peace. You know, just making sure we don't have any personal attacks, trolls running wild, or threads getting completely derailed. That's all we really need, right?

Gregory Ramirez2 said:It always starts the same way around here! First, you’ve got folks stepping up and volunteering to moderate a specific PDF or their own sub-forum, and then the rest of the community jumps in to vote on those who've put their hands up. It’s a pretty straightforward process once everyone gets involved!
That’s exactly how you end up getting free labor, hand-picked by the voters on this forum!

Ethan Barrett22 said:I honestly feel that... Honestly, I think Gregory Ramirez2 hit the nail on the head with his suggestion regarding the moderator selection process. It’s easily the best approach we could take—super fair and actually makes sense for everyone involved! 👍
I won't dive too deep into the specifics because I definitely don't want to derail the conversation and go off-topic, but I really think the admin team should consider implementing an option that’s fully democratic and fair. It would be such a win-win for everyone involved—both for the regular users and the moderators!

Honestly, that level of trolling is just next-level ridiculous. Even at a place like the FBI, they wouldn't let someone get away with that kind of nonsense without stepping in! 🙂🙂 Honestly, it’s just plain exhausting reading these two guys who are clearly trolling the thread on purpose. They’re basically just sitting there feeding each other endless compliments—at this rate, they might as well just announce their undying love for one another right here on the internet! Ugh, seriously! Look, guys, you have private messages for a reason. Go ahead and do whatever nonsense you want over there, but please, for the sake of everyone else, leave us alone on this forum and spare us all from your idiocy.

Ethan Barrett22 said:Look, I’m just going to be completely blunt here—I’ll say it without even a second of hesitation: I am officially recommending YOU to Nico!
Of course, if you can even manage to do that—and if you actually want to!

You are! Honestly, this person is the absolute gold standard for what a forum member should be! Honestly, I don't think you've ever even seen a warning card, let alone been banned—and honestly, that’s probably the best way to be! Honestly, I’m just sitting here feeling a little overwhelmed by all the kind words! It really means the world to me that you’ve noticed how much I try to contribute around here. I always aim to be someone people can count on—someone who keeps things respectful, stays level-headed, and actually adds something meaningful to the conversation rather than just adding to the noise. I know I can get a little carried away sometimes (guilty as charged!), and I definitely have my moments where I ramble on longer than necessary, but I truly do my best to keep everything fair and friendly. Being seen as a reliable part of this community is honestly one of the best compliments I could ever receive. Thank you so much for saying that; it genuinely made my day!
To be perfectly honest, I’m feeling pretty certain about this: we really can't do much better than what's currently on the table. I am absolutely convinced that if we try to look elsewhere, we're just going to end up spinning our wheels! He absolutely lived up to everything I expected from Nicin!.
.

What was I saying earlier? Well, here it is in black and white. These are my actual reasons for why we need to just scrap all these threads entirely. It’s not even about anyone having a disagreement or a clash of opinions—it’s honestly just a few little ego trips from people who are clearly just hungry for mooooooore power!

Ethan Brooks59 said:He’s absolutely livid! Honestly, it’s kind of heartbreaking to watch—he’s just totally obsessed and looks like he’s about to burst into tears because he can't grab hold of what he was aiming for. It's such a mess! Think of this as having your very own private playground where you can say whatever is on your mind without any filter! It’s basically a space where anyone trying to hide behind the excuse of being a "troll" just to stir up trouble gets an immediate ban. Of course, the catch is that the person running the show would essentially be policing themselves—either acting as their own moderator or appointing a clone to do the dirty work. That’s exactly why this person is volunteering to take charge of the spot, or they're trying to push Gregory Ramirez2 into the role instead! Well, they basically let them try to "prove" themselves by handling things their own way, and now the whole plan has completely fallen apart. That’s exactly why he’s so livid! Like you said, he’s totally "obsessed"—which explains why he’s out there hurling insults, rambling about all those modes and supermodes, and even bringing Anderlon and God Himself into the mix. It’s honestly wild. If you or anyone else ever dares to mention something to him, ask a simple question, or even just leave a comment, he’ll immediately jump to banning you and kicking you off the platform for good. It’s such a shame, really, but that’s just the kind of guy he is. He isn't nearly the person he pretends to be online!

Ethan Barrett22 said:To be completely honest with you guys... I’ve given it some serious thought, and honestly, I am absolutely certain about this! Honestly, I really don't think we could do any better than this! I am absolutely, one hundred percent certain that... He absolutely lived up to everything I expected from Nicin!.
.

It wasn’t actually Nicin's point—it was yours, Elizabeth Jackson... based exactly on what you wrote!
👎

Just imagine if something like that actually happened—if they went ahead and appointed a guy like that to be a moderator... honestly, who would even feel safe enough to speak their mind or share a different opinion? This is supposed to be a forum, for goodness' sake! But even now, I'm seeing people already trying to intimidate others. It's just not right.

Gregory Ramirez2 said:When it comes to those problematic forum users, honestly, most of the blame lies with the community itself. It’s because we basically "feed" those trolls by engaging with their bait instead of just staying quiet or hitting that ignore button immediately.

That doesn't mean the mods or the site admins aren't also on the hook—sometimes it’s just pure laziness or they're trying to cut corners on the budget to save a buck.
...

Then you have the type of guy who is actually supposed to be protecting everyone's right to speak up equally. Good grief.

It’s truly wild what an ego trip can do to people...

stormyrider28 said:Brenda Gonzalez12, you can really tell someone has lost their grip when they get this obediently detailed just to nitpick our posts. You throw out accusations without a single link to back them up—mostly because there aren't any and you're just making things up. For every single thing you've typed here, you won't be able to provide a single link because you're lying the second you hit "post." You just invent stuff, flip the truth 180 degrees, and loop it over and over without any proof... and where did Anderlon even come from? Seriously, nobody even brought him up! You are completely lost.

Good grief, man, please actually read what you're writing! You're accusing me of being insulting, then Napa accuses me of accusing you... yet neither you nor Napa have provided a single link to prove any of it. And now you're telling *me* I need to post links? To what? To all your nonsense and lies that you can't even verify?
Just take a breather, buddy... you're totally spiraling. 😒😵😵🤣🤣
