As usual, Doug/Buck is living in the past. This place died some time ago. At present it is populated only by zombies hurling invective and people like Buck hurling dogma. > A 30 posts a week limit is plenty enough to say something > relevant and could save this place. NOTHING could "save this place." Clearly, people *enjoy* all of this insult-hurling and invective, otherwise they would not put up with it and FEED the perpetrators by participating. Reducing the *amount* of BS by limiting the number of posts only would reduce the level of effluvia that one has to wade through -- from about a foot deep to six inches deep. The problem, as I see it, is with four posters. If by some act of God they were not to post AT ALL for a couple of weeks, we would see a remarkable change in Fairfield Life. I'm speaking, of course, of the Hate Brigade -- Judy, Ann, Ravi, and Doctordumbass. The spew hatred and insults on this forum because, on the whole, THEY GOT NOTHING ELSE. Except for DrD, who occasionally posts one of his lame-ass "songs" or spouts off about some quasi-spiritual topic as if he were actually knowledgeable about it, none of them seem to have anything to contribute EXCEPT hatred. ALL of the vendettas we see acted out on this forum seem to come from them. > Are there better more civil forums or blog discussions > of spirituality generally and TM using a more moderated, > respectful and civil decorum? There may be, but no amount of "moderation" will save (or, in actuality, resurrect) FFL. The problem here is that almost everyone seems to be bored -- with their lives, with their spiritual sadhana, with their "experiences" or the lack thereof. Therefore they settle for soap opera and invective and hatred *as a form of entertainment*. > This one is looking like a war-torn Islamic country. Nonsense. I've lived in war-torn Islamic countries. They are civilized by comparison. > I helped settle this place originally but looking now > to join the refugees... Jeesuus, You've ALREADY joined the refugees if you can't think of anything new and interesting to post. Continuing to post anyway when you've got nothing new to say is being a zombie. And I think we know that the only person here who likes zombies is Bhairitu. :-) I challenge Buck or anyone else who complains about the constant strife on this forum to POST SOMETHING ELSE. Something more interesting, something new. I don't think you can do it.
