Do you feel declaring war on a forum and being ASKED to leave by the forum founder cause enough to be banned?

Do you feel DEMANDING a set of new rules in a forum that a member has declared war on and its people cause enough to be banned?

When you are re-banned and come back again, please do so with a low profile. You will find it MUCH easier to drum up constructive dialogue with most members here.

Best of luck

I don't want to go chasing quotes down. So please don't insult my little brain by justifying people who have crossed the line like they didn't do a darn thing and they are all innocent. I have seen this before and I can't swallow it. Here comes that darn yellow rain again, when I hear that kind of thing.

What all three have in common is that they made very personal attacks in an extreme sort of way. The math is simple. The policy states it as such. There is a line and how you crossed that line is another thing. The mods are just looking out for the needs of the many verses the needs of the few. Granted we might slap each other now and again, with most of that out of jest.

I'm a new member and I understand the concept of mutual respect.

Having had my own website and forum in the past, I never had to ban anyone as I figured we could always work things out in some kind of adult fashion. I didn't have any rules or banning policies. If you chose to screw up and make it personal in such a distasteful way, and didn't want to rectify that, then you ended up booting yourself out. Because you only dishonored yourself by doing that and stuck out like a real sore thumb. It only happened twice in the 3 years I operated the site. And those people were always welcomed back in as long as they acted responsible for their take on things. But they had to earn their respect to once put themselves in a better standing. We all have our days and we aren't perfect. As long as you learn from the mistakes you make and try to do better, what the hey I say.

It is when you rock the boat posting one thread after another with the same type of animosity that offends people. Using a paint brush to paint everyone the same, blaming everyone when your personal demands are not met. There is something wrong there when someone makes demands, declares war on everyone, or threatens someones life. To say everyone treated these guys like that is a false accusation, lie, for simple terms. Granted there were slaps going around even after the storm had passed.

It makes it very difficult to read about someone's story, when everyone is first being accused with a paint brush and then wanting everyone to then listen. I was raised by a Napoleon type, so again, when you are telling me it's raining and your peeing on my moccasins, I'm going to look at you real funny. Similar to when ex Canadian kick boxer Dad would beat the smithereens out of me, then tells me he loves me after when he was to tired to get another kick in me. I'm not going to feel real good about it. Savvy?

If you have a story, you don't have to drag me through that darn yellow mud first. I also don't need to hear about all the conditions and demands leading up to that story, then declaring war or falsely accusing me if I question some part in it. Communication is a two way street in a forum. Look up what a forum means anywhere on the Internet. Hang on and I'll get for you.............

Wikipedia states,
An Internet forum, or message board, is an online discussion site.[1] It originated as the modern equivalent of a traditional bulletin board, and a technological evolution of the dialup bulletin board system.[2][3] From a technological standpoint, forums or boards are web applications managing user-generated content.[3][4]
People participating in an Internet forum may cultivate social bonds and interest groups for a topic may form from the discussions.

The keyword there is about "discussing." It take two to have a discussion.

Quite frankly I could care less how many fake identities someone may have. If your story is worth it's salt, it will stand on it's own. You want to add a little drama to that, fine, as I can handle that to. But it would be nice if you treated me like I would like to be treated as I would also treat you the same way. I'm easy. I'm not asking for much. I would then probably be inclined to listen. And just because I call the Bible a book, doesn't mean I am turning the conversation into a religious debate. If you find value in it, fine, and I would be willing to discuss it in a real way on any level you choose as long as that conversation had mutual respect in it. After all I am also still trying to learn or I am opened to that.

And always remember that when you speak to other warriors of the real type, threatening them on any level in person would be suicide. So maybe some have tried that tactic here on a virtual board and got banned. In the real world, your life would be banned. So maybe getting banned was the lesser of two evils and a blessing in disguise. Never forget the laws of attraction work virtually and in the 3D realm we reside in, at the same time. That's what you got to understand and another thing the Bible didn't tell you.

There is always a way to get your message across in a healthy way and it doesn't have to end up in some sink hole dragging everyone in it. It all depends on your agenda and if you can't handle that and you see yourself like some Napoleon type, and don't respect the guidelines, expect the consequences. If anything, MANUP! Take responsibility for your actions.

Enough said and if I said to much, it was because I had to get this off my chest after these recent events. Blessings to all. :thumb_yello:

Whole response utterly irrelevant, full of inaccuracies and falsehoods.

So Michael the owner of Astro Vera banned several members or at least his smurf buddies decided/ alter ego then banned those members often times for simply asking questions . Now we know that some of those members have made there way back over here 2 of them had the courage to use names that some of us were familiar with 371 and of course Michael the aforementioned forum owner used his original name from when he was a member here previously . For that i will give them credit as they did not try to hide behind a screen name those others who have come over it seems lack the true backbone to do so and want to create new names and hide behind them. rest assured they will meet the same fate should they proceed with attempts at disrupting this forum

I am not trying to do that.

I am trying to stop that from happening.

Best way to accomplish it is to wear it out until everyone is sick of it.

Then people wont have much tolerance for it and we can all get back to posting in peace.

So I`ll take a stab at boober . After watching the replies to TW posts I`ll bet she is one of 2 people from Astro Vera Diverdown or Shellie .Truthwalker Goes by the name of S-Dorados over there and depending on which hat he is wearing and if he is on his medication Michael .

You give it away trying to justify the posts of the previously banned people . if you have some thing relevant to say then say it if not move on or better yet rent a hall and preach from there .

You can join Michael`s forum oops forgot you are already members there there are several other forums that you can infiltrate and join . Your job is not to come in here and proclaim you have a better more efficient way of running the forum or even dictating what should or shouldn`t be done here if you have something to say the by all means do so . If what you are reading in some threads doesn`t suit your taste`s leave the thread there is no need to stick you comments in on every thread to disrupt it . If it doesn`t suit your taste move on till you find one that does or create your own and work with the people that join it .

The pattern i see is this move to numerous threads injecting comments to illicit a response then leave after getting arise from the members in it eventually creating your own thread like this one to get your audience and then hope to have a meaningful dialogue . Then once you get that audience you can`t seem to understand that your thread can`t stay on topic because your audience isn`t here to pat you on the back but to disrupt your thread and show you the same disrespect you have shown them . Funny what goes around comes around

Well, hops on a new box, cause it is fun to respond to an idiot. It's great to point out differences, and vent sometimes... and then watch the crowd gafaw when a mod comes in.... ok... stepping back from my instigator mode.....


I think people are just aware of someone with an agenda here that is meant to convert as many people as possible and save their souls.... which of course means then think many of us "enlightened" ones are lost.

I think many "preachers" have a special karmic place in the next dimension to burn off their stuff.

Here's a simple way to improve your life:

1. Click on the name of a user who is making your forum experience less enjoyable.

2. Click on "User Lists"

3. Click on "Add to Ignore List"

I would absolutely LOVE it if more people would put me on ignore.

Great advice.

As a matter of fact, Brook one of the most productive and positive members that has been with this forum for a long time. And certainly a long enough time for everyone to grow to love and trust her.

Again, your thread is degenerating into chaos, and you are one individual who is starting to take up a lot of the moderators time.

We are living in serious times, very serious. Trouble makers and instigators of disharmony on an internet forum shold be the last thing we are to be concerned about right now. Take a step back and analyse why it is that all of this chaos seems to follow you. Make the effort or else your threads will continue to be closed.
