Thanks love the site
Apneaman on Wed, 29th Nov 2017 7:46 pm
It was the nefarious work of fascist Dutch operatives. They’re also responsible for Hillary losing.
peakyeast on Wed, 29th Nov 2017 7:50 pm
Anyway Idea from where the attack(s) came from?

Anti American foreigners. Lol
Duncan Idaho on Wed, 29th Nov 2017 7:57 pm
Vlad The Bad, obviously.
He is why Hillary lost, and even helped the evil Bernie Sanders.
And Goldman Sachs was just being charitable given Hillary all that money for giving those talks.
Hey, I have a Bridge for sale in Brooklyn.
I’ll give you a great deal.

Wow, what did all the paranoid people do while you were down? Maybe they went out of mom’s basement for a few hours…and saw SUNLIGHT!

The rest was nice wolfie. Moderating extremist is hard work. Wolfie, you have to be a little paranoid being on a doomer site so be careful entertaining your thoughts.
Shortend on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 8:26 am
Boy, Davy…you actually got out to kick some dirt in that garden? Wow, that must of felt real good after all those months away…
Well, back to battling it out with Mak. That is real constructive use of you remaining time on this Earth.
Davy on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 8:40 am
I am out everyday on the farm shortE. My time here breaks the monotony of my chores. I don’t see many people so I enjoy the interactions. Too bad the board is not like it used to be. We actually tried to help each other a few years back when doom look more immediate. This is the nature of extremism it destroys cooperation. It is the magic of cell service and a smart phone that I can farm and moderate extremist. I enjoy moderating people who spread hate and discontent.
You aren’t bad shortE. You occasionally contribute useful info. I don’t care for your avatar. It looks like a little personal green in your back yard. I personally don’t think golf is a good example to market in the current world of decline and decay. What is your handicap?
Shortend on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 8:58 am
Davy, don’t get too defensive. Actually, I enjoy your writing and no doubt you have talent in stringing words. I know how time is distorted “working” on a computer. You think you’ve been on it for 5 minutes and its actually been 5 hours!
Oh, go ahead and knock yourselves out…
When the servers REALLY go out for good, you hopefully can reread your exchanges on backup.
Davy on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 9:19 am
ShortE, you should know me by now. I don’t get defensive I get even. Lol. I actually save all my better ideas to give to my kids someday so they will know I questioned this insanity we call modernism.
Ghung on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 9:22 am
When I go to my “peakoil.com” link it shows the site is still down. Found this page with a search. Is there a new site address for the home page?
Ghung on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 9:27 am
Solved. Clearing my cache fixed it.
The Cunning Linguist on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 9:42 am
When the site was down, I used a server status checker and it said:
“Peakoil.com is PARKED. The website is either expired or listed for sale…”!
Damn. I knew it was too good to be true! Oh well.
GregT on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 11:18 am
“Moderating extremist is hard work.”
Says the self proclaimed “battle hardened internet warrior”.
Haha.
GregT on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 11:21 am
“I don’t get defensive I get even.”
People don’t feel the emotional need to get even, unless they are feeling defensive.
Just saying delusionalist. Basic human psychology. As transparent as glass.
Davy on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 11:29 am
grehg, you never said what happend last week when you “broke”. Was it drugs, alcohol, or did you forget the meds? I saved the feed if you need me to refresh your memory. Talking about delusionist you were bat shit crazy.
GregT on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 11:41 am
You have provided more than enough information to identify yourself delusionalist. Dent county is a relatively small area, with a relatively small number of rural properties, and they keep great public records.
Knock yourself out. 🙂
Davy on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 11:56 am
Come on down grehg, I will give you an education.
Speaking of a stalking and pricking. Here is the widdle g at his best:

Good find Davy. I spoke with my psychiatrist, and she says that you rock. You are my new hero Davy. I don’t normally do gay sex, but she says that it would be worth it.
Would you mind sucking my cock before I fuck you up the ass? Honey.
Sissyfuss on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 12:02 pm
I blame the attack on Mak(a Mak attack). He went and told Ugo to buzz off which made the aforementioned Mr Bardi go all Kim Dum Sum Bitch on us and reduce the site to nuclear ashes and fallout. Mak, it’s okay to duke it out with the regulars on here but don’t mess with the real power brokers or we all get burned.
The Cunning Linguist on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 12:11 pm
“Peakoil.com is PARKED. The website is either expired or listed for sale…”!
I suspect the outage was due to peakoil.com falling on hard times of late. Since I was banned, the site activity has dropped by more than 50%! Peakoil.com is a very sleazy operation with shady business practices. They obviously must have been behind in paying for their hosting, so they were shut off until they paid their bill! LOL.
GregT on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 12:12 pm
I blame the attack on PO.com for posting articles which clearly state that they are not to be reproduced elsewhere. Mr Bardi gave the owners of this site the opportunity to remove that post, which they did not do.
The Cunning Linguist on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 12:13 pm
LOL!
GregT on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 12:16 pm
“Come on down grehg, I will give you an education.”
No need for me to come down delusionalist. The internet is a rather largish community, and you have already pissed a ton of people off.
Keep up the good work buddy, and I promise to do so as well.
Davy on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 12:29 pm
Widdle, if you are going to act tough then be tough. You are a pussy which is why I call you widdle.
I have more of the posts if you want more?
BTW, most Americans would find you disgusting so who is the one pissing off who. You are clearly going off the deep end lately. It must be retirement and lack of something to do.
Davy on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 12:32 pm
“I blame the attack on PO.com for posting articles which clearly state that they are not to be reproduced elsewhere. Mr Bardi gave the owners of this site the opportunity to remove that post, which they did not do.”
Widdle, what do you know about the internet? Where do you get our authority? I think Ugo has better things to do than to have po dot com shut down by nefarious means. He is respectable unlike you.
Davy on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 12:33 pm
The Cunning Linguist you are likely right. This is likely a situation of non-payment or something.
The Cunning Linguist on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 1:34 pm
And being the oil industry-financed troll farm propaganda house that it is, peakoil.com used the outage as a convenient opportunity to delete five days worth of forum postings! This greatly discourages real posters and drives them from the site, since too many real posters inhibit the site’s ability to churn out their relentless bullshit day after day.
Davy on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 2:11 pm
Cunning, this is a obscure forum. You are
Making this outage into more than it is. I imagine viewership is down and the click adverts are not paying enough. Who would donate to a topic like P.O.? Except for a few here P.O. has lost its impact despite being very much alive as a decline issue. It is usually when people look away from something as fundamental as PO that they get clobbered by the unforeseen.
The Cunning Linguist on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 2:13 pm
“I sent an enquiry to the site owner when I was able to log back in but have not heard back yet.”
~Tanada (site admin)
The site owner is one Dan, who somehow managed to obtain a legal trademark on the phrase “peak oil”. He started this fake forum way back in 2004. Many of the dedicated trolls on the staff have been here since the very beginning.
Any real person who earnestly attempts to post on Peakoil.com will very soon become acutely aware that the site obviously has zero credibility as a homespun “community forum”, as it so disingenuously claims. The site is too fucking fake to withstand a close examination.
Much like theoildrum, this sad little propaganda house will have a limited shelf life.
I don’t think peakoil.com will be around much longer.
The Cunning Linguist on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 2:19 pm
If Dan can’t pay his site hosting bill, how long will it be before he stops paying his faithful staff? Hard times are coming.
Davy on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 3:04 pm
Cunning, how hard is it to maintain a site like this? I think you are embellishing and exaggerating. I don’t know enough about Internet forum s so I have no opinion. I enjoy being here. Why not contribute something. Obviously you are here and have strong opinions. Put them to use and quit whining. I know of no one who is on the unmoderated side being kicked off. So are you telling us the full story.
Futilitist on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 3:08 pm
Um…
Just to let people know something important, I did not refer to the owner of this site as “Dan” in my last post, above. In fact, I used his full name, but my comment was just edited with no notice! And The Cunning Linguist is now completely blocked from posting. That was really fast! Seriously. What a bullshit forum! What are you afraid of “Dan”?
Futilitist on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 3:10 pm
This section is obviously not “unmoderated”! LOL.
Anonymouse1 on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 3:25 pm
CL, sounds(exactly) like an another of Nony’s many socks. Of course, the exceptionalist here, having recently discovered sock-puppetry himself, is too dense, to realize CL is clearly not some random newcomer. Madness tends to do that, fogs one’s ability to rationalize.
Sissyfuss on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 3:35 pm
Maybe “Dan” realized that Cunnalingust is a troll of the first order and we were all sick of him after a couple of posts.
Futilitist on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 4:22 pm
You are correct that The Cunning Linguist is not some random newcomer. But you are totally wrong about CL being a sock puppet of the Nony troll. The Cunning Linguist is an alter ego of me, Futilitist.
This is the supposedly the “unmoderated” section of this so called “community forum”. And I am only posting words, my opinions, just like anybody else. Why am I being singled out? Let’s see if they let me keep posting as Futilitist. If not, then I am right that this is a fake forum.
(I am sick of you too, Sissyfus.)
Davy on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 5:05 pm
Who cares really. Let’s talk some real issues.
BTW, apparently mouse1 is pretty upset because I have slapped him and his friends silly lately. His little gang is crumbling. Poor millennial waste case now only has is puppetry lament as his new found anti-American pricking post. How lame is that. Mouse1, are the Canadians losing their anti-American battles. Lol. You are a nut case like your buddy Mad Kat and grehg.
onlooker on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 5:32 pm
Futilist -Cunning you are being too harsh on this site. Shortonoil, me and a few others have been able to post whatever we want albeit within the sute rules ans News section is a real free for all ie chaos. Besides has has been said, this is not popular enough to attract the attention of the powers that be
Futilitist on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 6:13 pm
My name is Futilitist, overlooker.
I have never broken any site rules, yet I was banned for life from the forum. And this free for all chaos section just “unmoderated” my post with astonishing speed. I agree this unpopular site is a real backwater. But, for some reason, I keep attracting the attention of the powers that be. I wonder why?
$=? on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 8:20 pm
Looks like pro-ice-agers don’t like my posts
GregT on Thu, 30th Nov 2017 10:50 pm
“Who cares really. Let’s talk some real issues.”
Those would be your issues alone delusionalist. Take them up with your shrink.
Nobody else is interested in your emotional insecurities, or your psychological problems.
Get help.
Makati1 on Fri, 1st Dec 2017 3:02 am
If you think that this is unusual, then you have no idea what is happening in the real world. The internet is NOT forever. Attacks will continue as probers learn how to take it down. Someday, it will just disappear. So be it. No great loss.
It didn’t exist when I was young. It will not exist when I pass on. Many things have come and gone in the last 70 years. Many were believed to be “permanent”. Nothing is “forever”.
Makati1 on Fri, 1st Dec 2017 5:25 am
I would guess that the ads that appear in the sidebars here pay for the site. Both ads on my site are Asian. One for a tourist site in Australia and the other for Ford priced in Pesos.
Davy on Fri, 1st Dec 2017 5:56 am

Widdle is this what you are talking about when you mention problems?

And BTW Davy, only 15000 people in Dent county. Watch your back buddy. You never know who might be looking for you…Have a great day.
Apneaman on Fri, 1st Dec 2017 9:57 am
The Dummy Linguist, I was banned from the forum a long time ago and it had nothing to do with the owners of this site. It’s the forum Nazi and his snivvling bum buddies over there who did it for multiple reasons, but my use of colourful language was the excuse. What really happened was I made all the deniers look even dumber than they already looked. Funny, now half of them are no longer deniers. Kicking people out of the forum-treehouse what forum nazi’s do. They need to ban people to help feel special otherwise what’s the point? Where is the exclusivity in letting anyone in? How can the forum overlord show the others who the boss is if he never fires anyone? You think people volunteer out of pure goodness? No such thing as true altruism. Fuck em & stop flattering yourself. No one gives a shit about you. You were booted because they did not like you – end of story.
Not too cool trying to out the owner or anyone for petty shit like this. One of those Truthers threatened the owner of CoIC, xraymike, a few years ago, so xray mike posted the guys real name, phone number & st address. Never heard from him again.
Futilitist on Fri, 1st Dec 2017 4:09 pm
Hmm…let’s see…
I am not trying to “out the owner” of this shitty site. I am trying to shine a light on the fact that this forum has a very obvious pro oil industry agenda. It isn’t the only one on the net. Peakoilbarrel is another fake forum composed of mostly fake commenters. These fake forums control the frame to create and manage fake news, i.e. propaganda. They are well organized and well paid merchants of doubt. Are you seriously denying the elephant in the room?
This forum has an obvious agenda. The “forum Nazi and his snivvling bum buddies” are just the henchmen who relentlessly carry out that agenda. Who put them in charge?
What makes you want to jump in and defend peakoil.com anyway?
Davy on Fri, 1st Dec 2017 4:22 pm
FU, aha, most of this board is anti-oil, Where the frig have you been. This site is full of extremist complaining about oil and the US as if that will change thing. IMA, they themselves are accomplices in the dirt. They are deniers when it comes to solutions. They act like science supporters until the results conflict with their agenda. FU, you are barking up the wrong tree and your dog ain’t hunting.
Futilitist on Fri, 1st Dec 2017 4:53 pm
LOL. Most of the board is pretending to be anti-oil. That is how the scam works. I guess you fell for it.
I am a pro. I have been methodically investigating this slimy conspiracy in great detail over the last 5 years. I have been keeping a very detailed database and I can prove what I am saying. I am definitely not barking up the wrong tree. Barking up the wrong tree gets a person ignored, not banned and banned and banned and banned. Stupid forum.
Davy on Fri, 1st Dec 2017 5:12 pm
FU, prove it I am all ears? Besides who cares really, does it matter in the bigger scheme of things? I enjoy being here and I don’t expect my presence to make much of a difference anyway. This is an obscure blog. This blog is covering peak oil that is now largely ignored. The big issue now is peak oil demand. As far as I am concerned it is all part of the same systematic decline of our late term civilization. We are just moving chairs around a sinking ship. I am here exploring issues related to that. FU, if you found a conspiracy great I would love to hear about it. One word of warning this is a conspiracy addicted forum so you will have a lot of competition I hope your conspiracy has meat.
