I agree with you. I've always hated it. I'm here because it's the forum with the most members that I know of. If there was someplace else with the same reach to the whole wide world, it'd be there.

Oh lordy.... what an ego.
So you're out to single handedly save us from our ignorance? Thanks, but no thanks.

There can be differences of opinion when it comes to interpreting intent. For sure. How do you know which dictionary meaning applies in each case? For this reason it's good for people to compare notes.
I think that if something can be taken more than one way and there is a possible harmful effect if something is interpreted in a particular way, that it's best to re-word it.

Yes, it is.
And the context in this case is a conspiracy forum where the goal should be to elicit the spirit of cooperation in uncovering deception and respectfully exploring fresh ideas.

Here's what you need to do for starters.
Drop the ridicule. Then, there can be exploration of the unknown.

In the context of the motto, disallow is a good synonym. Makes sense now I'll bet. Not only did I explain the motto for you, I exemplified it.
I wondered what the owners meant by it, and just recently they sent PMs to all active ATS members (on Christmas), which if you had followed that to the referenced thread, you would find a clarification and context for the motto:

Take it up with the site owners. They authored it.
Our motto of "Deny Ignorance" was a call to action to be skeptical critical thinkers with regard to official stories and the ever worsening mass media.
Unfortunately, if you read the first 8 pages of the referenced thread, it's hard to find even a single post pointing out the blatant ignorance in the mass media title, so any amount of cooperation from those contributors who don't understand the science any better than the journalist, wouldn't have helped "deny ignorance" and get at the truth.

Torsion: The Key to the Theory of Everything – by Brendan D. Murphy
Conclusions
Psi and consciousness researchers have typically discussed only electromagnetism in relation to the operations of the mind, when all along the much harder to detect “fifth force” (known as torsion since 1913) may have been the most important aspect of bio-energy in accounting for the anomalous functions of consciousness. Physicist Michael Talbot wrote in his early 1990s classic The Holographic Universe that legitimate psychics had sensed the presence of another non-EM force or energy that composed part of the human aura or bio-field, but could not quite pinpoint what it was. Thanks to pioneers like Myshkin, Cartan, Kozyrev, and many more, we may surmise that the other “mysterious” non-EM component of the human bio-field spoken of by those psychics was torsion.
...empty space can propagate quantum waves travelling with the speed of light. Elementary particles, such as electrons, protons, are made of spherical standing wave patterns, a Space Resonance, similar to the waves on a drumhead or a string. That is, all the matter in the Universe is made of waves in empty space and nothing more! All the "material" properties of matter and its "fields" are only schaumkommen (Schroedinger's words) - they're only appearances
Einstein represents matter as Continuous Spherical Electromagnetic Force Fields - thus he is largely correct, matter is not a discrete and separate particle but rather a structure of Space. His error was to use continuous spherical e-m fields rather than Spherical Standing Waves. Thus he was never able to explain the discrete Energy transfers of Quantum Theory, which are due to Standing Wave Interactions, which only occur at discrete frequencies and thus energies. This Energy exchange is fundamental to all observation and thus to all Physics (though it has been ignored).
Wolff has found the structure of the electron consisting of two spherical quantum waves, one moving radially outward and another moving radially inward. The center of the waves is the nominal location of the electron 'particle'. These waves extend to infinity, like charge force. All 'particle' waves mix and contribute to each other, thus all matter of the universe is interrelated by this intimate connection between the fundamental 'particles' and the universe. The natural laws are a direct consequence of this Wave Structure of Matter (WSM), thus WSM underlies all of science.
