What is going on at Spartacus?

[Peter Lemkin]

In short, moderator Burton and the entity known as "Colby" - whose shiftworker status is exposed by frequent changes in speech patterns and literacy levels (one version can spell hypocrisy, another renders it "hypocracy" etc) - repeatedly disrupted serious informed debate in the Political Conspiracies section.

Techniques utilized included, but were not limited to: making posts invisible and inaccessible to the original poster; placing posters on moderation without seeking agreement from other moderators; diverting threads into blind alleys; engaging posters in endless debate on tiny, irrelevant points; baiting posters; trolling posters; and abusing posters.

Simkin was, as accurately described by Magda, routinely missing in action.

As were nearly all the alleged moderators and "forum leaders" whose virtual permanent absence left "moderation" of the board to Burton.

The Political Conspiracies section of the EF is now a deadzone.

Mission accomplished, Burton and "Colby" have now parked themselves in the JFK section - despite acknowledging zero knowledge or expertise regarding the subject in question.

The EF's treatment of Peter Lemkin, and destruction of his posts, was a disgrace.

At the time of the recent addition of new moderaters at the EF I was diappointed in one of the choices -- someone who has dogged me for years with innuendo and misinformation.

I emailed John Simkin who had once said something to the effect that he was afraid CIA was trying to infiltrate the EF. I told him that with this action, it seemed they had succeded.

If it has been penetrated, it was more by Walker than the moderators. His single-handed removal of me would be my prime bit 'o evidence. Simkin's refusal to back me up [he and I used to exchange significant information and emails off the forum] was a shock and smack in the face. The putsch to remove me was one year ago today. I was the only moderator to mention that I felt 'Mockingbird' actions were ongoing at the EF....so had to be done away with.

I am so sorry for what happened to you there, Peter. It does seem as though Simkin has lost heart and does not have perhaps the time or energy to face the problems on the board and do the right thing for the members.

Thanks. While it was Walker 100% who done the dirty deed, it was Simkin who asked him back and backed him up AND SIMKIN WHO erased all of my POSTS! He is not as 'innocent' of not minding the ship as many here are making him.......IMHO. It was also Simkin who called for a vote on my being dismissed as Moderator [no such rule existed - as they are appointed and serve at the Administration's pleasure]. Further, they did this while I was gagged, blocked and unable to explain my side of the story. A false story of my being inappropriate toward some woman on the Forum was floated; withdrawn by the woman - who happened to be used in a similar way to get rid of another member and who's real photo is not the one shown on the EF. It was a set up and he knew it, even set it up...to finish the lynching Walker had begun when Simkin was at his wife's funeral. I'll have more to say on all what happened at some future point. I have proofs as to other lies and crimes they committed and that many there are not who they claim to be. How Burton got to be 'super-moderator' is a story in and of itself.

Walker did the exact same thing to me - blocked my IP. Burton swore up and down it was not blocked. I can prove it was and still is - but I can see their site now again...ah, the wonders of the internet. He also told me a vote [unbeknown to me] was taken some months later to let me back in, but that it was not to be implemented, I think because they knew my condition was all my posts back.

Its pretty ugly over there, any which way one cuts it. :loo: That Simkin played so very unfair, by rules he made up as he went along so as to bias the vote [which never should have been taken] against me - to a former friend and confident on and off the Forum, speaks volumes. If that is how he treats friends and moderators, imagine how he'd treat others. They have no honor there...and are IMHO FULLY penetrated - were when I was there and I was removed for speaking to it. [and for speaking to 'unapproved' conspiracies, such as 9-11 et al.] Walker believes the last conspiracy was the murder of Julius Ceasar; Simkin has his own 'approved' list of conspiracies and none other dare show their heads, without consequences.
