I couldn't find any reference to that name, not even a mention in a mod action. So I can't tell you what happened. As Grashtel suggested, why don't you contact the moderators and politely ask them to look into it?
At one point I could log in but still couldn't post anything. Now I cannot log in either.

I didn't see your expletive, but I've been called a few. "Chicken necked" is a new one, however. Interesting how the anonymity of boards like this leads to use of such language; I myself try to avoid saying things to people I wouldn't be willing to say to their faces. But that is neither here nor there... I don't know what you mean by "got your number". Care to elaborate?
You are afraid of my argument. You have to censor it in order to deal with it and maintain your level of denial. That's what i mean.

First you said dissent there was not tolerated. Now you're saying "effective arguments" are not tolerated. You're moving the goalposts.
Jeez your reasoning is off-the-rails. You people are brainwashed. It amounts to the same thing. You are only allowed argument within a specified envelope go outside the envelope e.g. start talking about 911 and you are either ridiculed or banned no opposing argument is offered, largely because they know that if they did they'd lose.

I've seen the arguments there get extremely heated. (And, yes, I also note that Chomsky rejects the government-did-it 9/11 conspiracy claims.)
Noam Chomsky features in person on the Alex Jones' Film 'Terrorstorm' saying precisely the opposite of what you have just said. Nice try but no banana.

Aside from deletion of profanity, the posts at JREF are not censored. The nastiest threads get moved to the "Abandon All Hope" forum. Even the posts of banned users are not deleted.
They haven't even allowed my username. Probably met some of them before on other forums and they are still bleeding.

If you want to discuss other conspiracies, there are plenty of pro- and anti- sites out there for you.

How about everyone having a go at Conspiracy theorists in general on here? (Can we include the Boxcutter conspiracy theorists) No don't tell me they only live in space? Your hypocrisy is showing old boy.

Nothing to do with hypocrisy; it's a simple matter of abiding by the rules of this particular forum. I'll be happy to talk about on-topic - i.e., space-related - conspiracy claims here, based on my experience as an aerospace engineer.
Then I demand removal of the posting that speaks of Conspiracy Theorists as being lazy, loners (hardly applies to 911 truthers the Zogbe poll says there are 70 million in the US) with a small man syndrome. You MUST make it clear that this ONLY applies to space and astronomy conspiracy theorists.

If you are unwilling to try fixing your registration issues at JREF, you should sign up at apollohoax - many of the regulars here are over there as well.

ETA: Sorry for discussing other forums here, but roscoe made some testable claims about the JREF forums, and I was responding to them. In any case, I'll refrain from further discussion along such lines; I know they're off-topic for this forum.
Why don't you go to the Alex Jones forum where they don't censor anyone especially Boxcutter Conspiracy theorist, we just love ripping them apart there. We act a little unfair and use methods you may not be familiar with. We use FACTS. If you are unfamiliar with this word I suggest you look it up in the dictionary.
