Too bad things ended this way for 'uncle tantra'. He is a high calibre intellectual, but unfortunately a horrendous psychopath. As Judy pointed out, he is so focussed on displaying his dazzling language skills that he loses objectivity. This is what he said when I got bounced by Rick, "So IMO during this latest kerfuffle Jedi was just being an annoying Internet troll by trolling religious fanatic Jews. Dan, on the other hand, was trying to be a dictatorial bastard by trying to threaten Rick for not silencing him. Jedi was merely willing to diss religious fanatics. Dan was being *such* a dictatorial bastard that he was willing to try to get Yahoo to censure Fairfield Life or take it down because people on it were saying some things he didn't like. *That*, I am pretty sure, is what pushed Rick to act. In his own sick, twisted way, Dan was trying to do exactly the same thing that other asshole from the past was doing when he posted porn to FFL and then reported it to Yahoo, again in an attempt to get it taken down, and again for the same reason -- he didn't like what some people were saying about things he was attached to. Jedi was merely expressing his opinion, no matter how crudely or stupidly. Dan was trying to force other people to do what *he* wanted them to do. Given a choice, I'd rather live with foul-mouthed critics like Jedi than live with the insane people like Dan. But Rick made the "wisdom of Solomon" choice and got rid of BOTH of them. Win-win. Congratulations, Rick. 399695 https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/FairfieldLife/conversations/messages/399695 Agreed. Very Solomon-like, getting rid of both the 12-year-old and the whiner. I don't "auto delete" jedi's posts, just nuke them at the first glimpse of crazy, which is much of the time. Dan, however, has been on my DNR list since he reappeared, but he *still* required maintenance, just to empty the folder collecting his posts. It's been like living alone but having to flush the toilet 100 times a day to get rid of someone else's shit. Good riddance. 399571 https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/FairfieldLife/conversations/messages/399571 --- <anartaxius@...> wrote : How come so many are talking about Turq? It seems he is still very much with us here, in spite of the cadre that wanted him removed. And note that when one 'R' was talked about after having been canned, he came back courtesy of Rick. And we still do not know the offence Turq was canned for, a total lack of transparency is still operational here by the head of the Fairfield Inquisition. What you wrote here is about equal to anything Turq ever wrote on this group, as far as content and tone, so his removal is all the more inexplicable. TurquoiseBee's alleged 'badness' really has counterparts among other members of this group, including those that ran to the Peak. Since I last cleared my email, there are practically no posts on the Peak. It seems as if the cowards there are returning here. An overpopulation of wussies spells ill for the quality of content on FFL. The problem with Turq was there were few who could make a reasoned argument against what he threw at you. Anything is possible. Turq's main gripe, if we could call it that, was that ego co-opted just about everything spiritual here, and so he poked repeatedly at that ego value masquerading as spiritual wisdom. ---Duveyoung <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> wrote : Sour grapes, Turq? You've been here for fucking ever and now you can walk away as if it were nothing, eh? Nobody gunna miss ya much. Nobody gunna tearfully read your old posts like they were photos in an album. Nobody gunna say, "You know, Turq got us all on the right track about that issue." Not even Curtis will miss how you strode so haughtily into denial and tried to leave blood everywhere in your wake. Nobody gunna give ya a quick fix for your addiction: imagining emotional discomfort in others. What a fucked hobby that is. Dude, I mean, really? You added up to a negative number here. And now what? More coffee, group sex, films and running from the law? Just askin'. I have always suspected you were over there because of some problems over here. It just seems like such a natural conclusion given what a pissant sod you seem to be in real life. What is it? Back alimony? Law suit liens? Drug charges? One finds such a list easy to imagine. And here's me dissin' on your ass for no reason at all, eh? You never did jack shit one to anybody here and you can't imagine why all the chop-bustin' on ya? And I love it that you're saying you would never come back. GAWD....you just made it harder for yourself to beg for forgiveness. And you would've, but now, you've purposefully made it harder because you know you would have. See ya in a few years then. Time heals so much. But watch, by getting Alex to repost your replies, etc., you'll weasel your way back here and pretend you just "went on vacation is all." Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand, the reason I'm doing this beating of your dead stinking horse, is that I know how much you'd like to give one of your classic asshole responses that always and solely end up being raw vile hatred of all things human......and now can't. Turning purple with rage over there? You're a pill. Glad you're the one who had to end up swallowing it. --- <j_alexander_stanley@...> wrote : ----- Forwarded Message ----- From: TurquoiseBee <turquoiseb@...> To: Alex Stanley <j_alexander_stanley@...> Sent: Monday, June 22, 2015 11:01 PM Subject: Alex, can you make *another* post to the forum for me? Alex, you have been an honorable voice in all of this, so I'm going to ask you for one additional favor -- can you post this update to the group? Thanks in advance. Hi guys and gals, I wanted to pass some information along to you to help with your ongoing discussions, not to mention your vote. I have sorta been following things on FFL, although not closely, so I have noticed that Doug Hamilton is *still* managing to stonewall everyone here and NOT give a reason why he deleted my access to Fairfield Life. At the same time, he has suggested strongly that he and Rick are in complete agreement on it (from post #417314): "Yes, Turqb and Serious are gone from FFL by moderation. I am only the CEO. My master is the list owner. We had quite sufficient back and forth about this before taking our additional time to go in to pull the moderation levers in the controls." Well, I wish to shed a little light on this claim. Rick *finally* replied to my email to him, sent NOT to ask to rejoin FFL (there has been such a display of scumbaggery by a few here that I have serious doubts that I *would* rejoin FFL), but to focus on what for me is the larger issue of abuse of power. It took Rick several days *to* reply, and when he did (in a couple of posts), he made the following points: 1. He does NOT agree that FFL posters should be prohibited from criticizing David Lynch, as Doug attempted to enforce. 2. He does NOT agree that an FFL moderator should be able to delete a poster from the forum without giving a specific reason why. 3. He has NOT been "moderating the moderator" and following Doug's actions *as* moderator. He doesn't have the time. I got the strong impression that he has not read a single one of the many posts surrounding this issue, and has no intention of ever doing so. In other words, if you're waiting for Rick to intervene and "make a wise, informed executive decision" on all of this, you'll be waiting forever. 4. He does NOT know the reason that Doug deleted me from FFL. Doug has been stonewalling Rick, just as he has everyone else. If Rick is telling the truth in his emails to me (and I see no reason to disbelieve him), then Doug is LYING above about having been in communication with Rick about my removal. He is also LYING about the "back and forth" between Rick and himself. The truth is more as Alex told it -- Rick is simply *not interested* in Fairfield Life, and has neither the time nor inclination to follow a thread of posts and "get to the bottom of" any issue. 5. Rick suggests that he bowed to Doug's constant demands to be made moderator as an experiment, and so far has had to trust him to do the right thing. Repeat -- he has NOT been involved in any of the decisions or pronouncements that Doug has made. 6. Rick specifically mentioned that he had been afraid that Doug would try to run things as his "Buck" persona, and made it clear that this was NOT what he wanted. Doug supposedly agreed, although I think we all know that if he did he was LYING to Rick about that, too. That's all I know. I will happily make the whole email exchange available to Alex if he asks me to do so, so that he can affirm that I am not distorting what Rick said. I do NOT have any suggestions for those of you still on FFL, and suffering under the obvious attempt by a spiritual stormtrooper to take over the forum and shape it into his sick, twisted vision of "community." I have specifically NOT asked Rick to reinstate me, and will not do so -- if he decides to, that will be his decision. Thanks to many people here for the great writing and the many times you have stood up for yourselves and done the right thing. Good luck working all of this out. I'm just writing you to let you know that from my perspective it really does look as if YOU are the ones who have to work things out -- you *really* aren't going to get any help from Rick on this. Turq / Barry
