The guy starts this thread on LDS asking for a scientific discussion, then turns around and just spits out his own opinion. He joins the debate without providing a single shred of research, instead citing literature that doesn't follow any actual studies and relies more on what someone *thinks* rather than hard facts. Meanwhile, he denied me the chance to post my sources (because apparently, I didn't realize we were supposed to be having a "scientific" debate). So, he just asserts things, threatens people with warnings and penalties, but doesn't follow his own rules. When I asked to close a thread before, he never did it, but now he's jumping in within a few hours because someone else asked to close a different thread, effectively blocking me from presenting research that proves he's wrong. And then he immediately jumps to threatening me with sanctions. This is already the third moderator who's just trolling.
According to the rules of this forum, this moderator is straight-up moderator trolling. I wonder if he'll get hit with a 35 or 45 point penalty?! I'm betting he won't. Just like that other moderator who trolls by pushing nonsense, like claiming you need a permit just to exist.
I really think moderators should be barred from participating in discussions. Some of them don't even know the basic rules of this site, while regular users are expected to read them cover to cover. Then you end up with a moderator who trolls more than ten participants combined on their own thread.
I'm dropping the research links here, and I honestly hope this moderator at least gets a warning for the trolling.

All these studies—yet there is only one major global study showing two specific correlations regarding pedophilia: one relating to childhood trauma and another to pornography addiction. The other single study ever conducted shows that pedophiles are NON-HETEROsexual. — those are direct quotes from a MEDICAL STUDY on PEDOPHILIA. 🙂
PS. That book he’s recommending talks about child abuse in general—physical and psychological violence. It isn't just about pedophilia, but a much broader spectrum of violence against children. Nowhere in that book does it mention the only world-renowned study involving psychologists, psychiatrists, neuroscientists, and biochemists. 85% of pedophiles never commit child abuse, 10% are addicted to pornography, and only 5% are actual child abusers. That was the finding from the 2008 study. So, the moderator really stepped in it with his nonsense; he missed the mark on the literature entirely, because that globally recognized study happened in 2003, while the book he mentioned was published in 2001. Forum users absolutely love it when moderators troll them or when mods act uneducated, which is why I think they should be kept out of debates. When they participate, they aren't doing their jobs objectively; they let their emotions take over and try to flex their power when they realize they look foolish—it's classic moderator trolling.
Feel free to ban me if you think that’ll somehow clear things up for you. Though, honestly? I doubt it. 🙂
P.S. We seriously need a sub-forum called: Report the Moderator. You know, a place where mods could actually rotate out after handing themselves red cards because they're trolling their own community. Is that even possible when the whole platform is run by trolls? It feels like the average user here knows the rules better than the actual moderators who "enforce" them just because they're acting out of spite.
First off, you were totally off-topic. Second, the reason I asked you to provide links is because you dropped a string of really heavy claims—like saying watching porn changes sexual orientation which leads to Stop Child Abuse, and that bisexuals make up 91% of those cases based on some study you mentioned without actually linking it. For such
dangerous claims,
you absolutely must have proof.

I cited a study involving over 4,000 participants. These aren't just beliefs; they are facts. Sure, we could argue the study isn't applicable to the entire population because it focused on offenders who were already processed by the legal system, but it still says a lot about certain tendencies. Interestingly, Dr. Abel conducted a similar study about twenty years prior on offenders who hadn't been caught, and the numbers were pretty much the same, except for the frequency of the offenses, which were much higher. Just Google it; I'm not sending a link.😈
Again, you were off-topic, so I don't see the point of this complaint.

I provided the study where I
pulled the data from. You are free to check it yourself.
Going back to the start of my post: for any identical or similar claims you make on that thread, I will always demand links. Otherwise, it's just trolling.

I have no clue what you're talking about, and honestly, I couldn't care less! That thread wasn't shut down because of you; it was closed because the original poster specifically asked for it to be ended.
If that thread had stayed open, I wouldn't have spent much time talking about child abuse anyway. It would have been completely off-topic!

I just flew through this, and honestly, I’m seeing zero evidence to back up those claims. There’s nothing here to suggest that porn addiction shifts someone's sexual orientation or increases the risk of child abuse. Plus, the idea that most offenders are bisexual? Doesn't hold water. In fact, some parts of these links actually prove the exact opposite!

You're making claims again without showing a single shred of proof!
Look, I don't see the point in filing an appeal. You haven't been banned, and there aren't any actual sanctions against your account. All you got from me was a simple warning to back up your claims with evidence next time. As a moderator, I don't see anything wrong with that!
