Pharyngula

Dungeon

Pharyngula has Standards & Practices; violating them can get you banned. This is the brand-new shiny annex to the old Pharyngula dungeon, where the banned offenders are listed for public scorn. Most of the original incorrigibles have been released, but I expect this list will grow again as they attempt to repeat history.

Name Crime
John A. Davison Incorrigible, senile lunatic who doesn’t understand how blogs work, but does spam me with his repetitive claims of having disproven evolution by email.
VMartin An associate of Davison’s; lickspittle, toady, obsequious pest.
Hoody, aka Demolition Man Angry little man who spews out nasty one-liners.
J.J. Ramsey Creepy obsessive. One of the few trolls I have some concerns about: he’s a little too solicitous of my family.
David Mabus Literally mentally ill. Frequently spams twitter and my email with crazy rants about Nostradamus and Depeche Mode.
Atheistoclast, Bozorgmehr Pretentious and appallingly ignorant creationist.
Piltdown Man Holds the record for persistence in trying to comment on Pharyngula after being banned. Catholic. Long-winded. Stupid.
John Kwok Pompous name-dropper and stunningly maladroit clown.
Curlew Racist.
Rystefn One of a recent crop of Men’s Rights Assholes with a remarkable sense of masculine entitlement.
needfulcarp Yeah, another MRA.
Phil Giordana Likewise, another MRA. Also so self-absorbed that he ignored all my warnings…do not piss off the blog owner.
Eric Atkinson Trolling ninny. Showed up to do nothing but snipe and sneer; too stupid to even be entertaining.
Jerry, aka Chunkdz Banned troll from Sb Pharyngula who showed up under a new name and continued the same old behavior. Parole revoked!
John D One of those obtuse MRA assholes; too stupid to tolerate.
Franc Hoggle Proud angry masturbator, aficionado of scat porn, all-around repulsive fellow. Did give us a new term: hoggling, or masturbating hatefully over an obsession. Turns out there are a lot of hogglers out there.
Al B. Quirky Former tenant of the dungeon, back for one day, and already he’s creating sockpuppets.
tohellwithyourturtle Angry, belligerent little troll.
whatsinaname Evasive, inane, hate-filled little booger.
DriveByComment Blatantly trolling.
Dumbass Nice of him to self-label, but otherwise, just another tedious troll who whined endlessly about the quality of the comments while filling threads with his own vacuous shit.
PaulG One of those persistent assholes who got himself banned for obnoxious behavior at the old site, under multiple pseudonyms: MonkeyGenes, SlantedScience, and several others. Now he’s banned here, too. If past behavior is any indication, he’ll invent a new pseudonym and come back, but his idiotic nature will expose him again.
Zachary Bos Atheist. Humanist. Bad representative of both. He disrespected someone’s pseudonym and outed their name, and then whined on at length about how it was perfectly reasonable to do that.
No, it’s not.
Jim Klingenberg Creepy stalker dude. Posted treacly pleas of undying love to his ex here on Pharyngula, revealing both name and location — grow up, guy, and move on.
Mercurial Ewww. Pervy misogynist.
Jeffrey P Mindless godbotting asshole. Man, I despise those evangelical cretins who tell me what god wants.
Halostarbucks A young man, victim of derangement: another one who thinks it’s clever to use gendered body parts as an insult. They so hate what they lust after.
Arguably MRA The name says it all. It’s also a lie; his status wasn’t arguable at all.
Hyperon Old misogynist troll from the Sb site who did not use his parole wisely.
Cupholder, FrottageCheese Pretentious, morphing MRA. Will probably be back under multiple aliases. Will be deleted.
Kohldamunga Begged for a banning. Behaved like an ass to get it. Sure, I’ll nail him up on that cross if he wants it so bad. At least this way he won’t be able to fertilize the quantum tomatoes.
Pornalysis One of those raving mad ERV slimepit vermin. Showed up here, squished him fast.
David Buckna Creationist, but you don’t get banned for that. You get banned for being intransigently obtuse and intellectually dishonest.
atheism23, Czar, ATHEIST, TheOxfordTroll, Goldstein Sockpuppets. All of them appeared on one thread overnight, and spent their time congratulating each other on how clever the other one was: it was a disgusting exhibition of public masturbation.
Karl B, empirical1 More sockpuppets and delusional god-walloping dingleberries. I’m not even going to try and sort out whatever point they think they were making: sowing confusion is the opposite of communication.
Sam, Jack, Chet, whatever Generic, unimaginative sniping sockpuppeteer.
“Chris” Amazing asshole. He took offense that anyone thought his sloppy programming skills were pathetic, and went on a spamming jag, dumping kilobytes of German song lyrics on the site…apparently, being able to use copy and paste was the acme of coding proficiency to this bozo.
Bob Stevensson Racist homophobe with poor impulse control and no coherence at all.
Pogsurf Self-declared troll. Acted like it, too.
John Greg You don’t get to wallow gleefully in a cesspit of misogyny for months and months, bleating about ‘twats’ and ‘cunts’, and then show up here and gloat at the thought you’ve spotted a smudge.
Vincent Barely literate thug who tried to intimidate another commenter by revealing personal information. The guy could barely string two words together; why is it that stupid, MRA, and bully go together so often?
Coco Jumbo Pompous ass. Announced his superior intelligence, but never said anything intelligent. Hardly said anything coherent, actually.
JUSTthinking Not thinking. Rape apologist.
sanshou When I tell you to stop making homophobic comments, don’t argue with me.
jh0008 Banned for persistent stupidity, after multiple warnings.
syggyx Nasty little twit.
bevwoodward Rape apologist who thought getting called names on Pharyngula was a greater injustice than child abuse.
whysosrs Idiot misogynist.
Michael Hawkins Oblivious, privileged douchecanoe.
militaryhistorian Pompous blowhard with delusions of relevance.
Steersman I have a new criterion for banning: if you feel the need to make dishonest arguments about how “cunt” only means “obnoxious person”, then goodbye. Why do so many people do that? The intent is clearly to insult someone by comparing them to the most odious of anatomical features, a vulva.
