Rick, the neganauts here are playing you now to see how far they can take it.
Dear Rick, As an old Friend You see I really don't feel that you should yield FairfieldLife over to the methodical negativity that has overrun and overtaken our FairfieldLife [FFL] community on Yahoo-groups. Sincerely, -Buck Rick, FairfieldLife [FFL] has been way too important to communal Fairfield life in the past to just let it go to the aggressive dogs of unkind negativity as some mean and now narrowed successor group caliphate of hateful neganauts. Rick, for instance this FFL post is an incredibly important post within the things going on right now in the Fairfield meditating community: 404986Re: FW: A Cultural Survey, Maharishi on Not Speaking Ill of Othershttps://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/FairfieldLife/conversations/messages/404986 https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/FairfieldLife/conversations/messages/404986 Rick, Could reading the old FFL posts be kept open to scholarship whilst the posting function for everyone could be suspended? Like, being able to look at at these whilst posting is suspended? .. 406280Hammond's Channel of Maharishi and the DC TM Meeting https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/FairfieldLife/conversations/messages/406280 https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/FairfieldLife/conversations/messages/406280 Or, 402694Re: An Old Index to FFL https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/FairfieldLife/conversations/messages/402694 https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/FairfieldLife/conversations/messages/402694 68Notes of the Hammond TM Lecture https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/the_peak/conversations/messages/68 https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/the_peak/conversations/messages/68 Yes a general shutdown of posting to FFL but, One of the most urgent uses of FFL for scholarly purposes is research into mining of the archive of FFL. The amazing archive here tells a back-story of a community. Is there a way (?) to keep the search function of the archive and also the files section open whilst shutting off posting to FFL for a while in the FFL groups settings? WLeed3@...> wrote : GOOD IDEA RICK & BUCK Dear, Dear Rick; How about taking the month of December to suspend posting at all to FFL? Start anew with posting on January 1st. Let thy people re-pattern their lives silent as a period of time to reflect elsewhere. Time for a re-groove, a retreading of the tires of the forum that is FairfieldLife. It should be better for everyone and for what FFL would be. With the Best of Regards, The FFL Patriarch Of Positivity -Buck in the Dome WLeed3@...> writes : I will leave the form tooooo much nasty hateful thought forms via here via: verbiage & back biting & not enough re Fairfield IA & few good vibes, I agree with Buck. Col Wm D, Leed IV, best in all till it may be cleaned up Rick & all. Of late on FairfieldLife it feels like that sweep of IS across Syria has spread and happened over FFL as an open forum. It is now time for meditation on FFL, -Buck Dear Rick, I feel really sorry for you that you are left with just this cesspool of negativity from the recent separation in the FFL membership. This is not what we had hoped for with the forum as we started FarifieldLife these many years ago at Yahoo-groups. It is not too late to re-think this forum as a place for healthy discussions to occur. I hope for a better future here, -Buck in the Dome fleetwood_macncheese@...> wrote : Rick, I am sorry, but a forum where anyone is allowed to suggest sexual violence AGAINST children, is not someplace I want to be. I am truly sorry things have degenerated to this point. I am local to the Yahoo corporation, and am considering a detailed notice to the Yahoo administrators, including screen names, of this current activity. Barry makes one excuse after another, about using this foul, sexually perverted, and unbalanced voice, and is clearly not well. This is no longer a healthy environment for anyone to participate in. I am all for differing opinions on here, but you have allowed one individual's mental illness to co-opt what could be a fun place to hang out, and I guess I am one of the casualties. See ya!!
