She has been unbanned. She was only temp banned. But we'll see what she does anything that he feels is ban worthy he told me.
She will not continue being a mod. Alex told me he should have seen she was off before he made her a mod. I am so glad he finally saw this. I even got my apology but still no thank you.
-
I want to thank you for exposing her for what she did to you and to others.
I hope now that she is no longer a moderator, WP won't be experiencing any more of those weird "glitches" where people's passwords and their email addresses no longer work and I hope that nobody else has their accounts and all their posts deleted unless they want them to be deleted.
-
But I have a feeling now Alex is going to be stalked by her now and threatened and manipulated and he won't know what to do about it. I can maybe try and find the number to the Salem police and give it him so he can call them over there. I just hope he won't be forced to give her back her power because she manipulated him.
I hope Merle Morrigan is her real name. Or he can talk to his local police and they take it from there.

Report a mentally disturbed woman in her early 60's in about the right area. That would do the trick...
-
If this is her, she claims to be from Salem, Oregon:
http://www.meetup.com/ASAN-PDX/members/9124507/
Here is the telephone number and address for the Salem, Oregon Police Department:
Salem Police Department
(503) 588-6123
555 Liberty St SE, Salem, OR 97301
Cross Streets: Between Oak St SE and Mill St SE
However, it would be a huge mistake for her to start stalking Alex. His dad's a lawyer and I think he would know how to deal with someone like her very well.
-
And so WP returns to the status of stepping stone for Alex and he will ignore it again till it blows up

kit, i don't really think that it is your place to report her to the police. if she harrasses alex then give him the information.
he made a choice to make her a mod and now he gets to deal with the fallout.

Once again, why are you guys worried about bullshit drama on WP? I don't even fucking browse there. Haven't for like a year. Just let it alone.

That was all Kit was planning to do with the information anyway.

I contacted Alex yesterday and he told me it was only a temp ban because he thought she might go crazy and damage the forums.
Tbh if someones going to damge the forums when they go crazy they shouldn't be allowed to be a member.

Yes I think Alex is kidding himself.
Oh well it was fun.
I still look at the Missing accounts thread and laugh. QM never had someone talk to him like that before, without the power to ban them.

Yes I think Alex is kidding himself.

I also think he is trying to kid others. It's not working.
I replied to him saying how could she damage the forums if she has no moderating power, the most she could do is spam them and shit then she would get banned again anyway. He didn't reply to that.
-
Oh shit you scared me. Don't ever do that to me again. I have sinsboldlyphboia.

One sceming member can bring down a forum. Put up members against eachother, spread distrust and angst. Especially if it is done behind the scenes via pm and email, a lot of damage can be done. Has happened, and the less open a forum is, the easier it can be done.

It's one of the things that will automatically result in a ban here.

But my point is, if she's poses such a threat, why not permaban her instead of this temporarily bullshit?
I know that on any other board, she'd be permabanned for doing what she did.

I doubt she be posting much at WP. Notice how she hasn't posted since the rally? Also do a search one morriganinoregon and you will see she was not very active at other autism forums and if you look at her early posts from 2006 and early 2007, you will see she was not as active then.
Also I found this:
Starr sez: "I think you must have had some guts to come out to your collegaues about your autism"
When I was diagnosed AS/ HF Autistic at age 56, I was embarassed and desparate to keep it all a secret (Goodness knows _I_ knew what people thought of people like me!) and a wise man (Roger N Meyers the famous AS speaker of Portland, Oregon, USA fame) said to me "But, my dear! they ALREADY know (that something is different about you) you really can't hide it."
So, I just confirmed what they already sensed, that I wasn't like them. Yeah, I will admit that was a type of bravery, but the type of brave you are when you have no choice.
http://www.wrongplanet.net/postp461055.html&highlight=#461055
Does anyone recall her saying she was self diagnosed at 56 and diagnosed at 58? Why the change? :eyebrows:
And I know she is real because she is in one of the autism groups here and attended it once so I know the group leader has seen her and she has been mentioned several times in the group. We call her Merle. Same as when she did that speech at the state capital on autism, she was mentioned about it at the group when the leader asked us if anyone went.

How is it done? Can the member go around speading the word saying bad things about the place so no one joins?
WP is such a big place so I doubt she can tell everyone in the world to not join it. All they have to do is look up "asperger forums" and WP pops up and they will join it anyway.

No, it's done internally - an established and respected member can put a sly word here, a cunning post there, a few PMs, and within a week or two of starting to be a cunt, they can get parts of the membership hating either another part, or a specific member. Ever read a post and come away feeling offended, but you've no idea why - there's no specific point, phrase or sentence which is offensive, but the whole thing just makes you want to punch them in the face?
Of course, it's worse when you've got two of these people, working one against the other, as we did at AFF - it's even worse when you're taken along for the ride and you don't realise it.
Over time, the "feel" of the forum becomes.....nasty. New people are chased away, anyone who steps out of line is dogpiled. From that point on, it's just a matter of time before the forum dies, unless some major, major bannings take place - and even then, it might not do much good.

Well, that's about it, really, if you count breaking against the host's TOS as trying to damage the site. Violating the TOS doesn't automatically get you banned but we do need to react.

Heh, I should know, I've actually done such scheming on another board ages ago. However I also experienced the consequences of what happens when you loose control. Not pleasant I tell you.

What happens?

Basically the monster you create turns against you.

I just had a thought. I think Merle probably threatened to dish some dirt on Alex. She must know behind the scenes stuff, that he doesn't want people to know.

And seeing how in-transparent WP policy is about banning and such, WP looks like the perfect candidate for this to happen. All behind the scenes. Here, the talking about WP happens in the open, but not all members will be venting in the open, too afraid to be banned maybe. The fear is already there. The lack of trust too. Plus the knowing that you are not allowed to ask questions. Things can go putrid in no-time. Just takes one or two manipulating members with some online social skills.

All bolded where I fit.
Hey ever since sins has been demodded, there has been more suicide threads. Sinsboldly had a thing against them and would send them PMs and accuse them of trolling or drawing attention, etc. and ban them by changing their passwords or whatever. She did that too Preater. He was unable to login his account.

Maybe sinsboldly could be charged with third degree murder if she did it to those whose suicide threats were serious. That is serious fucking business!

I'd rather the suicide threads there than at AFF - though truth be told, if we think they are serious we just call the police in their country , pass on IP and ISP information, and talk to the poster until they either go offline or it becomes apparent that they are lying bastards.
Hyke is correct - because there is zero transparency there, and the TOS are rigidly adhered to with little or no leeway, it's ripe for abuse - I like to think that the moderation at AFF is quite open (though I don't really know), and it's open at Spectrumites -the admins and moderators there will explain why they've done something, and any inconstancy is explained and justified (with...a few exceptions, but lets leave that aside). If it got any more transparent here, stuff would start falling out :LOL:

i think that lucifer was the main contributer to the current TOS over at WP.

tos?

The irony is, Sins seems like just the sort of unstable to take drastic and (hopefully) self destructive action over something like getting de-modded( :violin:), so maybe we have some suicide threads from her to look forward to, sort of a silver lining the whole thing.

He owes you an apology then. He apologized to me for not seeing it sooner and for the problems she caused. he took the blame by saying he should have seen she was a bit off before he made her a mod. Yeah I would judge people by their behavior before making them mods. I wouldn't trust maggiedoll as one because of how she acted towards me.

I found out superboyian also helped me out by PMing Alex the evidence it was her. I was reading through the WP thread at Aspergic and found his post where he said it. What she did was nasty. Now I don't regret anymore for telling her I didn't know Fruend was banned or else she would still be a mod hurting other people and possibly deleting accounts and closing people out of their account.

I already tried.

Keep reporting him, he's breaking the law.

Keep reporting him, he's breaking the law.
I know. He's doing a LOT of things in fact. I already tried my best to bring this to light, but I can't do it by myself. If a lot of us were to join forces however, that might be a different story.....
-
How is Alex breaking the law?
Even Meadow is saying the same thing about Alex at AFF. But she started to think that only after she got banned.
-
Yeah, and it needs to be people in the US. He's taking in donations, but says WP is a non-profit organisation. Maybe christopher mcandless can contact the national autisiic society too.

He's lying when money is involved.
-
I don't understand the costs of servers or how they work but I go to couple other forums and they also have donations. Are they breaking the law too?
-

Non profits in the US can still pay salaries and expenses they are restricted on what they can do with the profits not the base costs of running a business. It's very complicated and is taken advantage of frequently but not so easy to prove
-
WP is non-profit? Can't remember ever reading it is.

I very much doubt he is breaking the law.

one time, several years ago, a bunch of us got together and wrote a wikipedia page about him (peter wrote it). it was not a favourable article.
the plan was to join WP and to post the link in hundreds of threads to0 get the membership to see what sort of a host he was.
-
do it again :orly:
-
do it again :orly:
we went into it half cocked. you would have to show that he is wikipedia worthy. and to do that you can't show him in a bad light. which would make the effort futile.

I'd help.

Keep reporting him, he's breaking the law.
I know. He's doing a LOT of things in fact. I already tried my best to bring this to light, but I can't do it by myself. If a lot of us were to join forces however, that might be a different story.....
one time, several years ago, a bunch of us got together and wrote a wikipedia page about him (peter wrote it). it was not a favourable article.
the plan was to join WP and to post the link in hundreds of threads to0 get the membership to see what sort of a host he was.
Why didn't you do it?

we did do it but it got deleted within a couple of days. i saved a link to the discussion of its deletion (which also had the entire text of the article) somwhere around here but i cannot find it now.

He isn't Wikipedia-worthy. :P

i know. we found out.

i know. we found out.
I remember the effort, though. It was fun while it lasted.
I think that the trick is to write an objective article about him. He is a pillar of the community, after all. ;)

that is what our opening page says.

do it again :orly:
we went into it half cocked. you would have to show that he is wikipedia worthy. and to do that you can't show him in a bad light. which would make the effort futile.
You could write an article with well disguised and subtle attacks that masquerade as objetive truth. It shouldn't be that hard to do.

BTW, Merle should be banned from the human race, much less WP and the internets. :police:

Wikipedia is all about having sources, it doesn't seem to matter so much if the sources are any good or not, so long as you have them. The thing to do wouldn't be to write an unflattering article on Alex Plank, but to edit the Wikipedia entry on Wrong Planet itself to describe the criticisms and controversy surrounding it, and backstop that with several web pages questioning the value of WP and discussing those specific criticisms. Given Alex's reactions in the past to changes to that Wiki article, that would most definitely draw his attention, the discussion page on Wiki is quite detailed about his efforts to sanitize WP's entry before.

One sceming member can bring down a forum. Put up members against eachother, spread distrust and angst. Especially if it is done behind the scenes via pm and email, a lot of damage can be done. Has happened, and the less open a forum is, the easier it can be done.
:agreed: :plus:
Seen it done, been there when it's being done. Nasty thing.
How is it done? Can the member go around speading the word saying bad things about the place so no one joins?
WP is such a big place so I doubt she can tell everyone in the world to not join it. All they have to do is look up "asperger forums" and WP pops up and they will join it anyway.
No, it's done internally - an established and respected member can put a sly word here, a cunning post there, a few PMs, and within a week or two of starting to be a cunt, they can get parts of the membership hating either another part, or a specific member. Ever read a post and come away feeling offended, but you've no idea why - there's no specific point, phrase or sentence which is offensive, but the whole thing just makes you want to punch them in the face?
Of course, it's worse when you've got two of these people, working one against the other, as we did at AFF - it's even worse when you're taken along for the ride and you don't realise it.
Over time, the "feel" of the forum becomes.....nasty. New people are chased away, anyone who steps out of line is dogpiled. From that point on, it's just a matter of time before the forum dies, unless some major, major bannings take place - and even then, it might not do much good.
been there,seen that. was one of the attacked. it was a bad time for quite a few folks

I think Meadow is a lucie1 and she is now trying to slander me and make herself look good. She decided I had sent her a virus. Funny and she is denying how she acted in her emails towards me and is trying to make herself the victim. God she pisses me off. The more she replies, the more I see what a liar she is and a manipulator.

I don't believe everything I hear about WP or Alex. I know lot of it is just assumptions.

there is a Wrong Planet page on wiki:
