    Djinn is a "council" member at PH who protected a moderator "rassales" who doxxed me to other members davocrat and idiocarat, idiocarat is a banned member's sock they allow to continue to post there you know him here now as inkslinger, you know, the guy doxing me what 5 times now? seems fair, I know right?


    They banned me for "staff abuse" because I stood up and fought for them to do the right thing and ban those harassing me and sharing my personal information. as you can see he runs a shitty little clique site that allows certain members to stalk and cyber harass other members. He's only here now because of me, more of the stalking and harassing I have been dealing with for months.

    PH used to be much better when it was fair, they then purged all the RW mods and the site turned into a lw echo chamber where the mods gang up on RW posters. I led an exodus of over 50 members from the site and that really stung djinn I guess.


    Anyway, seems PH simply can't quit me.


    Go fuck yourself, Djinn.

    It's a slippery slope. If there is excessive moderation, it results in low volume of posts. That makes it hard to build more participation.

    If there is little moderation, it results in lots of trolling, but the volume of posts generated by flame wars makes a chat board pretty active.

    Let's check it out...

    Yup. Guessed it:

    "You agree to not use this website to submit or link to any content which is defamatory, abusive, hateful, threatening, spam or spam-like, likely to offend, contains adult or objectionable content, ..."

    That would rule out 95% of the posts at JPP and relegate it to being a similar low-volume site.




    So the owner "Chip" uses the forum to datamine user information and shares your contributions with spam houses and other pay to click ad sources, not simple google ad words, but nefarious types of shit. Last scan there were over 25 different revenue generating plugins in place at ph. It used to be higher volume but they decided to purge the balance on staff and abuse non lw posters. I led an exodus of over 90% of the right wing members, it was a two week pause, they started to adress the issue then doubled down. We left for good.


    Now for some reason, djinn just happens to be here? hmmmmmmm. inkslinger just happens to be here? Seems PH really misses me. lol

    Go fuck yourself, Djinn.
    AT FIRST I WONDERED IF THERE WAS A CONNECTION BETWEEN JEN SAKI AND THIS DJINN FELLOW UNTIL I FOUND THIS:


    Jinn (Arabic: جن‎, jinn)—also romanized as djinn or anglicized as genie (with the broader meaning of spirit or demon, depending on source)[1][2]—are supernatural creatures in early pre-Islamic Arabian and later Islamic mythology and theology.[3] Like humans, they are created with fitra, neither born as believers nor as unbelievers, but their attitude depends on whether they accept God's guidance.[3] Since jinn are neither innately evil nor innately good, Islam acknowledged spirits from other religions, and was able to adapt spirits from other religions during its expansion. Jinn are not a strictly Islamic concept; they may represent several pagan beliefs integrated into Islam.[a][5]

    In an Islamic context, the term jinn is used for both a collective designation for any supernatural creature and also to refer to a specific type of supernatural creature.[6] Therefore, jinn are often mentioned together with devils/demons (shayāṭīn). Both devils and jinn feature in folklore and are held responsible for misfortune, possession and diseases. However, the jinn are sometimes supportive and benevolent. They are mentioned frequently in magical works throughout the Islamic world, to be summoned and bound to a sorcerer, but also in zoological treatises as animals with a subtle body.

    Forums vary. I've been on several over the past 25ish years. Agreed about slippery slope regarding moderation. It's one reason why I like JPP: light moderation.

    Some forums are politically or religiously biased, others are whimsical in their moderation. JPP has always been among the most lightly moderated and the most fair.

    Wow, Jits. That sounds right up your doxxing alley. If you're so rich, why haven't you bought JPP or PH yourself?

    Is that how you doxxed people on JPP and PH? You "datamined" them?

    It was more of a group effort. If anything, I probably delayed Rev HH's ban trying to resolve matters via PM.

    After a few months of witnessing his doxxing, cyberstalking and cyberbullying, it's understandable why the group banned him.
