I wasn't even trolling, I've been taking 15mg of copper daily for months and have only seen benefits.

I would love to know any reasons why
Mine would only be get my private messages of folks I was helping
And

One act of obedience is better than one hundred sermons.

@TheSir well mephisto, who is definitely not me, is banned now too because of your comment, seems like your analysis was perfect. I was not banned this morning before you posted that!
-
@Barghest Ha, my apologies. It does seem like banning you was an attempt to invalidate the analysis. Yet by banning you just to invalidate the analysis, he inadvertently affirmed its conclusion: that he will always choose the action that is least damaging to his sense of power and control. In other words, he couldn't stand the accuracy of the analysis so he attacked it using the exact method the analysis highlighted.

Weren't all of you paying to use the forum? Surely he can't legally ban all of you, especially for simple disagreements or posts on other forums. Seems dangerously close to theft or fraud.
-
@VehmicJuryman No anyone who was there before he started charging was grandfathered in.
-
@TheSir It's a testament to your eloquence and tact that you were able to last so long. I had been enjoying reading your subtle jabs at Charlie. Congratulations on being banned.

did he ban anyone paying subscriptions?

User “feedandseed” was banned in the original haidut ban thread
Melissa would've jumped in to intervene if she wasn't busy legitimizing Jorge's attacker. Her superpowers are brought up when convenient, but soon defaults to filing her nails while accepting the sportive disposal of members.

I am now banned too as a result of this post.
I've stumbled upon some of your questionings, they were precise and exemplary. It's a loss for them.

Got banned for saying this:
I wasn't even trolling, I've been taking 15mg of copper daily for months and have only seen benefits.I guess having an experience antithetical to the forum owner's narrative is a bannable offense now.
It's a little risky, but shows the concern that they have for members: you're taking something that they regard as harmful and you're dumped to continue to do it elsewhere.

Yes. What hasn't been banned yet?

He banned me. Twice. I joined in 2015 but like a fool I paid the subscription fee because I thought it was a good cause in the memory of Ray Peat. Pretty stupid of me.

I was a "member" too. If the concern was genuine and unprejudiced, equally distributed to all members, instead of being banned I would have received a response such as:
15mg of copper daily is probably toxic, are you sure it's not hurting you? I'd highly recommend reevaluating your stance.
The only concern they have is making sure the narrative being pushed isn't challenged. -

Thank you, glad to hear.

Very telling how no one has dared to respond to that thread. Charlie has established a strong culture of fear. Yet since fear is failing to bring him the respect he so desires, he is now trying to buy it by giving people stuff for free. Unfortunately this will fail too.

No one banned CAN respond to this thread.

@:M :B. didn't make it back. I loved their technical breakdown of Mercola's waffle

@wzuo said in New "Mission" of RPF:
I was banned

@TheSir That place is degenerating too fast to keep up with. Every day is another trainwreck. It's hard to look away. The relationship of the power users (led by Garrett Smith) to Ray Peat is like bitter ex-lovers. In their imagination Ray Peat promised to fix all of their problems and when that didn't happen they have vowed revenge on him with this passive-aggressive slander and delusions of grandeur.
-
@jwayne Yes, very true. There is a strange juxtaposition between how Charlie claims to be carrying Peat's work forward and how he refuses to consider whether Peat would have allowed an anti Vitamin A & copper forum to be named after him. His argument is that Peat can't be right about everything, which is perfectly valid in itself, yet given that Peat himself believed that the VA theory is nonsense, how justified is it to associate his name primarily with this theory? No amount of parallel Peat apologism is going to explain this issue away. Charlie will remain in a moral conflict until he stops misrepresenting Peat. As Truth said, it is factual to call him a liar.
