Update on the Updates

From Steorn:

Hi Folks,

Its been a while - just to let you know that we will be releasing the update on the Jury process and so on on Friday April 13th.

Thanks,

Sean
urbanvibration had this to say:
We don't even know if there will be any news, that last time he said that there wasn't.
And Sean replied:
and yes there will be some new info ....
Sean also stated that end of Q1 is actually April 15th, so technically Steorn isn't late with their news. Now we just have to make it through next week!

I for one am glad that somebody over there spoke up. If Steorn wants to cultivate a healthy community (skeptics, believers, and fence-sitters), it's important for them to maintain regular contact. And I guess they're right about the date. I never understood the whole "financial year" system anyways...

"Sean also stated that end of Q1 is actually April 15th..."

What a lame excuse.

Happy Easter to all SteornTracker readers.

It's a lovely sunny day here in London, England.

"O to be in England now that April's there ..."

Seems there is time to make cute videos, but there has not been time to put out the promised updates. Oh, and careful about the April 15 thing. He still has not been pinned down on what year said April 15th will fall on. Next ones are in 2012 and 2018.

It was bound to happen. I've been muzzled on the Steorn forums. I can log in to my account but can't post.

It happened a few minutes after I posted my opinion on the April 15 being the end of the first quarter.

My post was removed.

The culling of the cynics/skeptics continues.

Oakthicket, Thicket, Thicket_ ,Thicket__, all BANNED. Steorn must be scared of someone.

Hairykrishna, Pennies_everywhere,
And many more.

Steorn (or the mods) have become the shepards for the flock, protecting believers from the Big Bad Doubters.

What is Steorn so afraid of?

Truth needs no secrecy or cencorship. Lies live in the hearts of censors and fraudsters.

Ping said - "It could also be that Ticket said something really nasty ;-)"

Yes, could be.

Or something offensive or vulgar.

Or truthful, relevant, revealing, damning.

Or Sean just threw a hissy fit.

Who knows? Thats the problem with deleting posts.

Looks like Magnatrix or Crank banned Thicket. There were no other Admins on line at the time, looking at the accounts.

Members of the forum are saying that Thicket personally insulted Sean.

So you personally insult the CEO of the company who pay for and run the forum that you are posting on.

What did you think was going to happen?

There is criticism and skepticism, and there is being down right rude.

Thicket here. Can't get my google account to work. Will figure out later.

My Sean-insult was that I called him a 'pathological BSer'. It was in reference to April 15 being the end of the first quarter. Lol. He could've apologized for being two weeks late in his update, but a pathological BSer can't do that, even for a trivial matter.

I stated that the 550 BHP was another example.

The magnet at the speed of an artillery shell is a third example.

I get a kick when folks speculate about fiscal quarters, as if any normal person would use fiscal quarters when talking in a public forum.

In any case, the financial reports filed with the government shows that Steorn uses a calendar year for reporting.

I must admit, the character of Steorn has changed of late.

While all of this is circumstantial, it's harder now to give the company the benefit of doubt.

Anonymous said...

Your nasty attitude did you in, Thicky, the blame is squarely on you yourself.

You could have said the exact same things in a less insulting way.

You didn't.

At least SteornTracker will give you a soapbox.

Happy Easter.

I'm not surprised at all. Banning of skeptics and BSing by Sean is nothing new there. In his own words the forum means nothing to steorn. Its his lets-see-what-happens-when-i-say-this thing. Lol.
The spdc also looks like a cheap PR stunt.

Its a fact that for every single insult uttered by a disbeliever there are 100 worse kind of insulted written by believers, yet not a single one has been banned.

That forum will die soon.

@007

If nastiness was a reason for banning, you would have been gone long ago.

Sean is culling the skeptics, plain and simple.

Well, looks like I have lost posting rights also.
And I have been disrespectful to no one.
Maybe a bit contentious and skeptical? Guilty as charged!

Anonymous said...

Well Meta...I guess that pretty much scuppers the argument that only rude folks got banned.

Thicket got banned for being insulting - what does he expect?

It is not his divine right to be a member. It's Steorn's forum, so it's their rules.

Please post a link, which proves Ping has been rude.
