The Cold Filter Cryonics Forum Moderator

Yet another person has jumped on the bandwagon of people whose responses to my criticisms of cryonics care providers are lame attempts to vilify me. Two days ago, in response to someone posting links to my blog, the Cold Filter moderator wrote:

By posting that here you're helping her bypass moderation, and expanding the audience of people who will see her attacks."

(Emphasis added.)

Recently, (maybe more than a month ago), the CF moderator informed me he would be moderating all my posts. Essentially, I think his argument was that I am boring, and he is tired of my remarks regarding the gross incompetence and serious lack of ethics at certain cryonics organizations. I responded by informing him I would not be posting, where I was being censored. Since that time, I have made no attempt to post, or to have anyone else post for me, on his forum. For him to state that people are "helping (me) bypass moderation," is seriously inappropriate. I am not attempting to "bypass moderation," I am AVOIDING CENSORSHIP, by posting on my own blog. The next thing you know, he'll be banning anyone who mentions my name on his (obviously biased) forum. There's a whole new wave of marketing, targeted at young people, and the CF mod obviously does not want them made aware of the truth, regarding the people who claim to be selling them a chance of future resurrection.

As for his concerns regarding my blog's audience, that drastically increased not long after I ceased posting on CF and focused on the blog, (and prior to his uploaders linking to the blog). Many thanks to the CF mod, for helping me focus on posting in a more productive setting; he's saved me a lot of time and frustration.
