I agree the mods shouls delete some threads. lets start with the goofey Natuifan stuff that contradicts all the data out there on early agriculture. How about the nutty african Greek posts that not a dingle Greek historian agrees with. So yes, the mods should become more active.

Yes, ES has become comedy central. I'll bet the trolling has been around as long as the Moderator has been MIA. Also the link M.O.M. posted was a good 6 months ago, will 1 week even make a difference? They keep changing their names so much, one can hardly keep up with them. Even this thread in itself, has become a magnet of sorts.

I don't know if this 'project' or rather pledge couldn't come any sooner.
If it wasn't bad enough that this section of the forum is being overrun by trolls, now it appears there is a 'troll war' going on.
I will take Takruri's offer though and instead of responding to trolls, I will just create my threads on ancient Egyptian culture in the Egyptology section. I hope all the veterans and intelligent folk will follow.

----------------------------- The problem would actually lie with the individuals not up to date, new to the board, who will think they're contributing to ES, and post in the threads with more pseudo science which ultimately keep the troll threads going. -----------------------------
Most of the idiots arguing with the loons don't even know what pseudoscience is, yet alone are smart enough to recognize they are propagating it.

There's no refuge at the mother forum. Smelling victory here trolls are now infesting Egyptology forum too. Look at numerous off topic no way related to Egyptology subject matter there these past few months. Look at the inane reply posts in even the valid threads.
Egyptology is no more moderated than Ancient Egypt though four moderators are listed. I tried to have a post denigrating whites as sexual deviates removed from my DSC thread by using the icon. But nothing ever happened.
A while back I clicked on each of the Egyptology moderators' names. The moderator you all voted for has his mail turned off. He wasn't the only one. Except for Ausar I got no response.
Ausar is busy elsewhere in life. He explained why he had to give up full time moderator duties, and I feel bad personally impinging him to clean up a thread, move irrelevant threads from Egyptology to Ancient Egypt, etc.
We have to do something right here and take back Ancient Egypt or else just forget about ES as a forum site for progressive academic Egyptology and Africana.
Please post here to this forum during the target week. We will give it the good fight and drive them back.
Hashishin attack!
P.S. Of course having a for real moderator would be an immense help (sifting the kitty litter essentially). But there's another factor. The site owner and the bottomline driven by counter hits. The trolls obviously dominate there and so to "management" are a benefit to the site.
How can we counteract that? Click on one of the advertisers everytime you surf in. It may help us if during target week the stats show a spike in ad hits from Egypology forum and Ancient Egypt forum.

I have to agree with this statement. Outside of the area of Linguistics, the rest of this crap posing as scholarship is merely blind and ignorant regurgitation of pseudo science based propaganda.

Selective picture spam and "stereotypical negro subsaharan black , etc, etc" is all they do.
Arguably they do it more than the loons.

Its telling how your colorstruck punk ass tried to get postings removed when you felt they attacked whites.
All of the anti black/African postings targeting specific African ethnic groups both in and out of Africa you tolerated, even participated yourself. Remember when you called African Americans niggers?
Take your punk ass on somewhere.

Just to see where the power rests who will volunteer for one week (the week of March 21 - March 27) to absolutely under no circumstance not reply nor respond to even the vilest post from the resident trolls running this forum?
Of course if we don't try it then of course it won't work.
P.S. those who refuse do aid and abet the trolls and there is a difference between a troll type of post versus honest counterpoint or contrary views which are always welcome.

These Afroloons think they own the board. It is the only place where they can post this nonsense and actually have a few people, a very few, listen.

After reading this thread, and others like it, I now realize that it doesn't matter if the trolls or rednecks are around or not. You guys hate each other! If you don't have any racists to argue with, you'll just beat EACH OTHER down, in the most un-scholarly straight up 'hood' fashion.
Peace Brothers!

Couldn't agree more. Just look at my recent thread. I'm not bothered though, it makes for easy distinguising who is real and who is silly. Who is worthy responding to and who isn't. I'm prolly the youngest here, and I'm guessing a large componant of the posters here are older, yet some of them act like little teenagers. Also, if we go by the usual definition of the word trolling, Hammer, Recovering, Bettyboo and others sharing their sentiments are not the only ones engaging in it.

Tru that. More and more, esp. with tha last few years and all, i've felt like trolling .. in a good way though.
...
Like, lightweight how the posters "[argyle104]" and "jamaican crab" satire certain postings or post styles some of the time, only i'd be without some of the corrosive intentions they seem to have for honest and cooperative exploration of "black history".

@ Homeylu. Yes you may be young . . .and thus misunderstand some of the effervescent responses from black posters to each other. Don't mis-interpret it as "hate".
Black people are NOT a hating people. Don't mistake gamesmanship as hate. Many of them don't like to be wrong and have a point to prove. It is all good. But ALL. . .maybe most (not including Recovered ) have Africana at heart. Disagreement don't equate to hate.
As you mature you will realise that.

Ok!! fellas/fellets we are down to days before operation Troll Starve.if you notice some has reverted to old nicks..here is a few clues of posts/threads to starve.
Any post with the titles submitted by a known or a recognized troll.
Egyptians weren't.. Blacks/ngrs(bait)
Egyptians didn't have short nose,long nose no nose wide nose..etc(bait)
Blacks can't/couldn't have built..traveled..blah blah blah (bait)
Black peoples have low intelligence..because.they are black(bait)
Afrocentric are this or that.(bait)
Whitey are blah..blah..blah just because they are white-skinned (bait)
As a matter of fact be just as mind-full of those who claim to be super-Afrocentric,who go around throwing invectives at no white-skinned person in particular..for they may very well be plants whose purpose here is to drive down the credibility of this forum and turn it into a version of Stormfront or Arguewitheveryone.

No need to apologise, ''ish'' happens. My mention of disrespect was not referring to anything you said, even though I don't fully agree with it, but rather the tone some choose to adopt towards reasonable people. Perhaps a good consideration for the non-troll posters during the designated week, is to moderate their own tone as well, when responding to reasonable people, or if generally unreasonable, one could consider to loosen up when the same individual demonstrates openness to change in face of consentual evidence. Again, the keyword is reasonable, because everyone understandably loses his/her composure from time to time when people are being unreasonable, whether this rigidness, is coming from a troll or (someone who is considered) a non-troll.

NP, but I'm not young either, although I look it, thanks to the melanin that keeps my skin from aging.
I think Kalonji is a very intelligent young man/or woman?? I have children around this age. We should be proud that they take an active interest in their culture and politics. Kalonji could be on a VHS forum arguing about who RayJ should've picked to be his girl, .
We should not attack our younger generation based on their ideals. Their world is much different than ours was 20 years ago. A lot of their peers of another race are much more progressive than their parents were. It's this generation that helped put a Black man in office.
It's a shame that a youngster has to tell grown-azz men how to behave.

But seriously, next week will be a test of our self-control.
The main weakness of black people is discipline. I have always said that. We are intelligent, logical and far superior physically than other groups.(Is that bait Brada?).
Sometimes I believe a strong military junta(with vision ) is what is needed in some of these black countries. You know. . to get us back on track.

Naaw!!..but most folks do have a lack of self discipline especially if one is from the west where instant gratification is the norm. a benevolent Tyrant is still a Tyrant they always kill alotta people wouldn't go in that direction.

I'm a dude. Thanks for your compliment Homeylu, although I don't think I'm any more intelligent than the other normal functioning posters on this forum.
See, we all have different goals when we registered to this forum and we also have ways to make sure those goals are reached. Some people are here to network, others to learn or teach, or perhaps a combination. Other, less functioning posters have forgotten their original purpose, and have disintegrated into dissenting and attention seeking. I see this al the time, they have this weird mix of trolling, yet pretending to conduct themselves in a scholarly manner. Failing to notice that whatever your goal is, it is going to shine through your postings sooner or later, depending on how good you are at hiding it. And it's either going to make you look like a dumb douche that is devoid of any admirable purpose, or someone that is productive and what others might call intelligent.

Agreed, Africans that are fresh of the continent are representing for us in ways that are undeniable. Having the highest rate of education is hardly something a discipline lacking population can achieve. It is however largely present in diasporal Africans, or may I not say that? Better shut up before I'm accused of airing out dirty laundry... Sorry Gaul, couldn't resist it..
From a psychological perspective, it will be interesting to see how the week will proceed, with emphasis on how non-trolls will be able to control their inclinations, and how the trolls will respond when they do. I haven't committed to participating in this project because I've stopped responding to antagonists before that, and will continue after that week. I must say, it isn't hard at all. Don't mean to be cheeky, but seriously, I don't know what took the majority of this forum so long.

Xyyman, don't you have any teenagers? How could you not know who Ray J is???? Lol, j/k I just found out who he is myself about a year ago.
Yes, I agree very intelligent, plus I don't have this testosterone thing figured out yet, and the male ego is something to behold, you all will kill each other to have the last word, even 5 threads later, I STG.
