Note that 'Buck' does not appear in the data Yahoo now posts on the group, nor does it appear in the e-mail. And what do we do if someone's real name is part or the whole of their e-mail address, or if the person signs off with their real name somewhere in the e-mail and does not care, and we respond to that? What if we repost an older post and the person's real name was in that? Buck is a nickname, but I assume others might use it where you live. I sometimes use the full e-mail address name, but not the company name (yahoogroups.com for example). What if a person wants to use their real name, are they prohibited? Please clarify. Summary of this message - person's real name in e-mail address
- person wants to use real name - person wants to use a nickname that people in real life call him/her by - person's real name appears in older posts - person doesn't care if real name is used - person's real name is posted by person somewhere in e-mail (deliberately) Sincerely, Xenophaneros Anartaxius From: "dhamiltony...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]" <FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com> To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, June 17, 2015 5:00 PM Subject: [FairfieldLife] On Gratuitous invasions of privacy “ ..anddon't invade other people's privacy.” Ingoing forward in accord with Rick's original intent for protectingprivacy on FFL know that in responding [replying] to posts made onFFL an unsolicited use of someone's legal name on FFL is an invasionof privacy as it also is considered a violation of the yahoo-groupsguidelines here. Expect to have your writing removed from FFL. Expect to have your posts moderated. Expect to have your membershiprevoked if such invasion of people's privacy continues either as byimpulse without intent or with meditated intent to abuse someone byinvasion of privacy as used in method. Forinstance, as people signing on to FFL do post and people do respondwith replies then for example in reply: 'Turqb isTurqb', 'Fleetwoodis Fleetwood', 'CDB is CDB', 'Serious is Serious', 'Buck is Buck', 'Nablusoss is Nablusoss', and 'Authfriend is Authfriend'. Whatevertheir legal names in life may be, now going forward you shall bemoderate in this as Rick originally intended. Show self-restraintand respect for other people's privacy here. Simple.

In going forward with moderation on FFL, protection of privacy has always been a mainstay feature of FFL as Rick's free speech list. This feature of protection has been under siege and fallen to a form of a disrespect used by some writers on FFL. Everyone take this as a warning right now going forward: where someone posting to the list uses an anonymous screen name it is quite proper form on FFL as a yahoo-group to respond to posts using a person's screen name and make no mention of their real name otherwise. -JaiGuruYou! ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <authfri...@yahoo.com> wrote : Please ignore what he says about me.

Just for the record, I should point out that Rick banned me from the group without sending me a single message or email explaining why. So, I appealed to him and he reinstated my posting privileges. Apparently an informant objected to my using their real name, although they had previously posted under their real name. Go figure. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <turquoiseb@...> wrote : Sad news. The really sad part of this is that [] has not apologized to me for over two decades for posting my real name on a.m.t. Go figure. But, this brings up an interesting subject. From what I've read, <authfriend> has never used her real name on FFL, so I guess that everyone that ever used her real name should be banned from the group. That would include almost everyone currently posting. Can anyone spell cognitive dissonance? Might I propose, before Doug starts banning people, that you and Rick insist on a few guidelines for *him* when he does this. I'm suggesting this because I think everyone here is aware that Doug is...uh...not quite in touch with reality these days, and tends to see things that aren't really there. So what I suggest is that if he is indeed given the power to ban someone, he cannot do so without reposting *the exact post* that Doug feels is in violation of the Yahoo Guidelines, and without explaining to the group *exactly why* he thinks this poster needs to be banned. Otherwise, you know what's going to happen. Doug will just ban the people he doesn't like, without telling *anyone*, and they'll just fall off the radar because they can't post any more, either to complain or to defend themselves. I think we all know that a tyrant has just been handed the keys to the kingdom. I think we also all know what he will do with them. I'm just suggesting a procedure that insures he can't do it in secret. From: "j_alexander_stanley@...

Nothing to be proud of. The guidelines are not arbitrary. They are put in place to foster discussion, about anything. If you and Rick decide hands off, there is no unambiguous solution to trolling on this forum. That is why the majority of the forums, mine included, adhere to the guidelines set out by Yahoo Groups. Rick's and yours don't, and that is no occasion for congratulations. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <j_alexander_stanley@...> wrote : Thanks. From the very start, FFL was intended as a free speech zone. When Rick asked me to be a moderator, the job description was to handle subscriptions, keep out spammers, and make sure there's no porn or other content that would get FFL categorized as an adult group, where it would be much less visible on the 'net. For a time, I was also tasked with enforcing the moronic posting limit. WRT colloidal silver, I would only add that it should not be taken on a regular basis, and even at 20 PPM, no more than 6oz should be taken per day. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <mjackson74@...> wrote : [] is supposed to be the moderator, but he mostly is busy making colloidal silver and cooking meat at low temps for a loooooong time (wish I had some now).

There basically is NO moderation on this forum. Rick has encouraged us all to ponder these deep questions, but when it attracts trolls, he bails. No problem now that I have adjusted, but let's please not act as if someone is EVER going to do anything per the Yahoo Guidelines here. It is imo a useless thing to bring up at this point. I thought you left? Left to start a group with moderation? Why not stay there if you can't cope with being here? Why the endless whining? Is it some sort of denial of service for the people who actually like it here? Are you on some sort of mission to save us from ourselves? You are the irritating troll, do you understand? You and your mates who also never contribute anything. Go away. Nothing is going to change here because we like chatting and having fun. Go away and stop spoiling it.
