Thread gone?

I didn't see the last posts in the thread that was deleted.

Did you see the post that Ponderable made on page 2 of THIS thread that he then deleted after he read my responses to it?

@fmf said
What "conclusions" did he jump to? What accusations did he make that he has now apologized for?

Do you accept he jumped to conclusions?

If so, he simply posted in error. That is not the same as lying.

I believe a more serious offense would be lying about being dead, or at least going along with it during a Pandemic, notice how he avoids this topic! 🙂

They are both tip-toeing around that.

Eventually, Dive will say it was an obvious joke.

I accept that that is what he is claiming now. I just saw two accusations [which you are strangely refusing to accept he is apologizing for] which I interpreted to be knowingly false in a fumbled attempt to defend the odious Kevin Eleven. I called Ponderable out for it and he deleted the post in question... a post that you now seem to be admitting you never even read. You seem oddly unaware of the two false accusations that Ponderable made.

Not very funny one either, which shows you how far he will go! He was wrong and they both know it but neither will admit it! It would take a man to admit he was wrong. 🙂

And you seem oddly unaware of the difference between lying and jumping to conclusions.

I think he made two false accusations. I think he did it deliberately. I think I know why. And I think this is the reason he deleted the post. If he'd just made an honest mistake, he'd surely have left the jumped-to-conclusions there, quoted them, and said "I apologize for these false accusations, I was jumping to conclusions". But he didn't. He just deleted the post instead. And now here's you running interference for what he said [and what he apologized for] in a post you never even saw!

I am fully aware of the difference between them

I think you have misjudged his character and created your own erroneous narrative.

I am a very good judge of character, as you know and have said publicly said several times, and I judge Ponderable's character to be upstanding and honest. That is why this incident is disappointing. Awful posters like Kevin Eleven shouldn't have posters like Ponderable trying to cover for them.

What are the wrong "conclusions" that you say Ponderable has apologized for?

Agreed. Ponderable is both upstanding and honest. This is why your claim he made 2 deliberate false accusations is a nonsense.

You didn't even see the false accusations he made. You don't even accept that he made them or that he apologized for them. Your adjudication is bizarre. If you don't need to have seen the false accusations and you can't imagine that he made them in order to deflect criticism of Keven Eleven, so be it.

My knowledge of Ponderable's character is sufficient.
