Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: WTF - For Rick
Richard, imo in a society filled with corrupt leaders, the term ex-con is meaningless. Heck, a family member was in jail for writing bad checks! They probably couldn't get a decent paying job and were starving to death! On Wednesday, September 3, 2014 5:47 PM, 'Richard J.

Or, would have booted you when you first inferred that I was a perv viewing child porno on the internet. Or Edg, when he called me a pedophile priest. Now that's being malicious! Apparently Rick doesn't even read any of these messages, unlike you and the other Barry obviously do. Go figure.

Well, the dude is certainly consistent, just a shame none of it was worth reading, but you can't have everything.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: WTF - For Rick
turq, do you even realize what a malicious bully you sound like?! You want to nuke someone for writing a lot of posts?! I think you're the one out of control. You say you ignore so many people on FFL. So just add one more to your list. Why is it so hard for you to ignore Richard? Maybe that's what really gets to you. You can't ignore Richard. But to call overposting malicious is just, well malicious. And manipulative. imo. And who cares what the ex FFLer said?! They're not even here any more. But maybe they got to your ego. I didn't realize how important it is to you to be a part of a cool forum. I guess if FFL isn't cool, then it means you're not cool either! So you want to nuke Richard. You try shaming Rick. And you even get in a swipe at the TMers. Of course, to do the latter you had to get a little OCD with numbers. But whatever! There are some people who might want you to be booted. Everybody has somebody they'd like to boot. Is that really the answer?

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: WTF - For Rick
I don't advocate controlling content, but just curious, what is the percentage of MJ postings that slam anything TMO, 95%, which is not necessary a problem except that it also can amount to more than 50 comments a week. What percent of your postings include some gratuitous negative comment about TM? 75, 80?%? And I'm talking about your obligatory add on to any other subject matter. You know, the moral of the story. How, for example, the chit chat in a bar is..so much superior to anything on FFL, or how a dog peeing on a fire hydrant, reminds you of some deficiency of the TMO. Or how the cult apologists on the forum are always just one or two posts from driving you away. Be the change you want to see, dude. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, turquoiseb@... wrote : From: jedi_spock@...

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: WTF - For Rick
All good points Share, although I think they will be missed by Barry. In some ways, I think he's stuck in a 60's, or 70's mentality, where everything is groovy, and he's the grooviest of them all. And as you say, for all the ignoring of the posts he talks about, well, does it make any sense? He's obsessing about Richard's posts. He, of course doesn't realize it, because, Barry doesn't obsess about anything. He only points out how other people obsess, or (I forgot), are cult apologists.

He probably is too self-absorbed to analyze his own narcissistic tendencies, or realize he is acting like a bully, Share. You are really asking a lot of a guy whose ego is so big that he outlasted Judy Stein. You want to nuke someone for writing a lot of posts?! I think you're the one out of control. You say you ignore so many people on FFL. So just add one more to your list. His idea of a party is probably to /only admit guys/, give them a chit at the door worth one word for each, and then stand over them with a whip and a calculator, like a skin-head biker. If they say something he doesn't like, he upsets the table and runs to Rick or Alex, the moderators, and when they don't respond, he runs home and takes all his toys. Why is it so hard for you to ignore Richard? Maybe that's what really gets to you. You can't ignore Richard. He is so obviously JELLOS that he probably stays awake at night trying to figure out something to post to distract our attention - it's all about Richard. There may be something to that theory that watching violent movies on TV and playing violent video games all day /tends to instill a violent nature in the individual./ It takes a lot of nerve to recommend a /Rodriquez movie/ to a pacifistic forum dedicated to promoting world peace. Apparently th other informant wants Ann to come to S.C. and shoot him with a gun. Go figure. But to call overposting malicious is just, well malicious. And manipulative. imo. You've got to wonder about a guy whose top priority is some informant over-posting on an obscure social media site like Yahoo FFL - when the whole world is in utter chaos. It's a matter of priorities I guess, go figure. And who cares what the ex FFLer said?! They're not even here any more. But maybe they got to your ego. I didn't realize how important it is to you to be a part of a cool forum. I guess if FFL isn't cool, then it means you're not cool either! Maybe he needs to call in reinforcements, Share. After the lashing he just got from Ann, I'd be running scared with my tail tucked in between my legs too. But the ego is a difficult thing to rise above. You do realize that we are talking about a guy that got reduced for satiric purposes to a facile formula by Judy - down to just about the level of a wet noodle, right? You and I are his new targets. He must think that you and Ann are weak women he can boss around and ridicule without any defense from the other guys - so he takes his anger out vicariously on me. Where is Dr. Pete when we need him? So you want to nuke Richard. You try shaming Rick. And you even get in a swipe at the TMers. Of course, to do the latter you had to get a little OCD with numbers. But whatever! He obviously can't even fight his own battles anymore, so he calls Rick, Alex and Vaj in to help him win the debate. He doesn't even realize that we can whip his ass with one hand tied behind our backs and blindfolded. It's kind of sad to see a guy so humiliated - a guy that is obviously smart, but so lonely that he has to resort to social media just to find someone like the Jedi_Spock talk to. There are some people who might want you to be booted. Everybody has somebody they'd like to boot. Is that really the answer? Some people are very prone to peer-pressure, Share. I can't help but think he's been hanging around the skin-head bikers over there far too long. Obviously he has been turned to the point of being in a mind-controlled state: the major characteristic of all dissociative phenomena involves a detachment from reality. The best we can do is try to help him. Thanks for all the good work - you are a jewel amidst the dung.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: WTF - For Rick
The Turq's problem is that you, amongs very few posters, post knowledge. This obviously drives him nuts as he doesn't want knowledge, all he wants is carry on as before because his so-called Buddhism has told him he's already enlightened and has no need of any further knowledge not to mention that dreaded word sadhana. Add to that the fact that you remind him of his embarresing years with the lama-fraud-lenz and his claim that he saw him levitating all ads up to a furious anger that keeps building up in his system and that one day will be released. One way or the other :-) He could have posted something interesting to read about - a review of a crappy movie or a lonely cafe experience - instead of wasting band-space and time obsessing about me

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: WTF - For Rick
My sort in Yahoo mail filtered out all the fluff by this morning so I had only 8 e-mails from FFL to peruse, while there were 40 or more in my fluff folder, mostly from Richard. My Inbox was empty so the sort worked perfectly this time. I also have a 'maybe' folder which I might look at, and a separate folder for Rick and Alex and the post count (administration, even though there is not much of that). The main difference is I have to log in to get the mail whereas before I could look at the conversations page to see if something was interesting. What I am really doing this morning is paying bills, which seems more important to attend to than Richard's overflow. Simply not responding to Richard does not seem to work, anyone responding to Richard directly goes into my fluff folder. So I don't get to read Share's posts any more.

Bhairitu, but evidently people can install filters to block out whoever they want to ignore. That seems more fair to me than booting someone who other people might enjoy.

There is, so far, no evidence that Judy is dead, although I got no response from her when I sent her a message recently using Yahoo Mail. There are several reasons however, to assume that she is having problems. First, I sent my message to her /professional email address/ using Yahoo Mail, so she should have gotten it - she told me recently that she does respond to my mail. Go figure. Concerning Vaj - when you do get a bounced email, that usually indicates someone has /de-activated the account/. So, it looks like that is what Vaj has done, for his own reasons. I have several email accounts on Yahoo (since 1999) that I have not used for years and they are still active. If you are dead, you probably are in no shape to shut your email account down. I don't even know how to de-activate an email account using Neo, or even if that is possible. So maybe Vaj has a hosted server account and he can manage his own mail server. He is smart enough to do that for sure. But, why? I could have used his help in my latest dialog with Bill. Go figure. To flood the forum like a huge dump truck is clearly malicious intent.

If it were me, given his history and how he's resisted any attempts to get him to lighten up for years now, I'd ban Richard for at least a year. With two conditions. First, if he attempts to create other IDs so he can post anyway, nuke each of the new IDs as they appear and make the ban permanent for life. Second, offer anyone still around on FFL after a year a vote to see if they want to allow him back. Post a few links back to this recent period in which he's been making 500+ posts a month to help them decide how to vote. No muss, no fuss, no maintenance, and maybe the forum would become a pleasant place to have a discussion again. Maybe.

Too bad Judy isn't around anymore to take Ann to task for giving up the good fight. It took Barry a long time (fourteen years) and a lot of nights of hard work, trying to get rid of Judy Stein. If Barry was the moderator, there would probably be a good chance of a fair and balanced discussion. If it would keep the forum still running, I would limit my posts to one per day and let Barry post as many as he felt he needed to get his point across, although it would probably take up only one line of plain text. With Barry being the moderator he would probably ban Ann the very first day, out of spite, and then ban everyone else except Michael Jackson the next day. Barry being the forum moderator would REALLY MAKE FFL AN INTERESTING DISCUSSION FORUM. But, I'm not sure what the lurking reporters would think - Barry has probably already told them everything they need to know, including all the secret mantras, so why would there be any need of further discussion?

It's kind of difficult to think of anything interesting to post here, seeing as how all these other informants are already so advanced spiritually. There even used to be a TM Governor on this list that I once had a short conversation with. Rick knows a lot, but he won't even talk to me or wish me a happy birthday like he does the others. Alex has been a real source of inspiration. I like Buck too and Share is a jewel. (Judy was another case entirely - she hated my guts, apparently.) And, there used to be a couple of doctors posting here too. FFL and AMT are great sources of information, so I've tried to add to that a little bit, but nobody seems to be interested in that holy man crap, so I've just resorted lately to a little light chit-chat with friends. I'm sorry for getting so upset about Edg calling me a pedophile priest. That was a real low for this group. Maybe I am a glutton for punishment. Where is Dr. Pete when I need him? as he doesn't want knowledge, all he wants is carry on as before because his so-called Buddhism has told him he's already enlightened and has no need of any further knowledge not to mention that dreaded word sadhana. Not sure about the Buddhism Turq espouses, it's kind of vague. But, I already got beat up pretty badly the other day by Bill for posting something critical about the Shankaracharya - Bill said I was a mere /dilettante/. How could a hick living down here know anything about tantra? He sure told me off, but at least Bill pointed me in the right direction to get a book to read. Add to that the fact that you remind him of his embarresing years with the lama-fraud-lenz and his claim that he saw him levitating all ads up to a furious anger that keeps building up in his system and that one day will be released. Which is really weird - I actually kind of like the Zen Master Rama and some of the things he said. But, the Rama guy never once, to my knowledge, ever made any levitation claims. Neither did the Maharishi. The Turq and me should have a lot in common: We are both military brats from Texas; we both like to write about stuff; and we both share an interest in music, travel, movies and the spiritual life. It is kind of strange that he would run to Alex and Rick and send them private emails about me, trying to get me banned from the group, instead of calling me on the phone or posting or responding in a FFL message. He sounds kind of scared. Maybe he is getting old and insecure - it's tough getting old, especially when you don't have a real home to go to or a family life. There is strength in numbers. I hope he finds someone to connect with - I really do. Maybe he is just JELLOS. It sort of looks like he got turned when he moved over to Amsterdam. Now, he seems to hate all his old friends from his TMO days. He doesn't seem to like women much either. Go figure.

People got so sick and tired of their petty squabbles they just up and left the group in disgust and never cam back again. Alex called AMT the Cesspool of Usenet and came over here to FFL. In just days, the Turq and Judy stalked Alex over here and for another ten years they went at it, hurling insults at each other to no end. Judy called Barry a liar, but apparently Judy never told a lie herself. Barry doesn't take criticism very elegantly, to say the least. Here's an excerpt from Barry, the second time he had a dialog with me (keep in mind that I'm an expert on /Gnosticism/ and frequently post to alt.gnostic.religion and have read over 200 books on the /Cathars, Templars, and the Gnostics)/: Willy, Willy, Willy, you're such an idiot sometimes it actually inspires awe. I'm not interested in cheap, cheezy shit you can find on the Net about the Cathars, most of it fiction... Subject: Catharism Author: Uncle Tantra Newsgroups: alt.meditation.transcendental Date: 2003-09-11 01:26:49 PST I think that death rattle of a dead site kinda nails it. And IMO it's clearly Rick's fault. As many have pointed out, he *could* do something to remove a person who has said outright that his only reason for posting so much is to fuck with people he doesn't like and ruin their site. But he doesn't. Clearly Rick doesn't read his own forum enough to even CARE what Richard Williams has turned the experience of reading it into. If it were me, given his history and how he's resisted any attempts to get him to lighten up for years now, I'd ban Richard for at least a year. With two conditions. First, if he attempts to create other IDs so he can post anyway, nuke each of the new IDs as they appear and make the ban permanent for life. Second, offer anyone still around on FFL after a year a vote to see if they want to allow him back. Post a few links back to this recent period in which he's been making 500+ posts a month to help them decide how to vote. No muss, no fuss, no maintenance, and maybe the forum would become a pleasant place to have a discussion again. Maybe.

To flood the forum like a huge dump truck is clearly malicious intent. I think he's gone totally nuts. I call for '200 posts per month' limit. That should be easy for any moderator to manage.

Most other group moderators would have booted him long ago. He has the disposition of an ex-con. Maybe he is one. If we had a moderator, he would boot you for calling me an ex-con, without any evidence and for no apparent reason. Or, would have booted you when you first inferred that I was a perv viewing child porno on the internet. Or Edg, when he called me a pedophile priest. Now that's being malicious! Apparently Rick doesn't even read any of these messages, unlike you and the other Barry obviously do. Go figure.
Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: WTF - For Rick
*I don't have a problem with most of what you say here given that Richard is either out of control or is just pretending to be but to describe a potential conversation with you at FFL to be potentially pleasant is pretty hilarious from my point of view. If booting Richard could guarantee that I'd be willing to endorse your wish - just as an experiment.* Thanks for all you support, Ann - I knew I could count on you. My vote is to have Barry be the new FFL moderator. That should make for some really interesting reading. We all love to read stories about the mechanics of consciousness and the comings and goings of TMers. He is what, about a mile from Vlodrop, NE?

What is interesting though is how vehemently Share has taken on bawee on this subject when she was so unwilling to stand up for herself when he said equally damning things about her. So, in the midst of all of this fluff I am seeing some revealing aspects of various people here and humans are so fascinating, are they not? For me part of the charm of this place is the constant parade of the human condition that flashes out from my screen. So carry on, I read pretty much everything here, no censorship or fluff bins or various posters relegated to the world of the deleted. I just read it all and wonder. Like.

My Inbox was empty so the sort worked perfectly this time. I also have a 'maybe' folder which I might look at, and a separate folder for Rick and Alex and the post count (administration, even though there is not much of that). The main difference is I have to log in to get the mail whereas before I could look at the conversations page to see if something was interesting. What I am really doing this morning is paying bills, which seems more important to attend to than Richard's overflow. Simply not responding to Richard does not seem to work, anyone responding to Richard directly goes into my fluff folder. So I don't get to read Share's posts any more.

[FairfieldLife] FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com To flood the forum like a huge dump truck is clearly malicious intent. I think he's gone totally nuts. For those whose brains are so atrophied from the practice of TM that they cannot do math, so far this week Richard Williams has managed to make almost *30% of all posts* made to Fairfield Life. * So far this week: 177 posts out of 600 - 29.5% of all posts made to FFL * Week ending Aug 30: 209 posts out of 1129 - 18.5% of all posts made to FFL * Week ending Aug 23: 258 posts out of 943 - 27.4% of all posts made to FFL * Week ending Aug 16: 146 posts out of 681 - 23.4% of all posts made to FFL * Week ending Aug 09: 152 posts out of 741 - 20.5% of all posts made to FFL * Week ending Aug 02: 112 posts out of 518 - 21.6% of all posts made to FFL * Week ending Jul 26: 104 posts out of 439 - 23.6% of all posts made to FFL * Week ending Jul 19: 149 posts out of 541 - 27.5% of all posts made to FFL * Week ending Jul 12: 166 posts out of 720 - 23.1% of all posts made to FFL * Week ending Jul 05: 167 posts out of 660 - 25.3% of all posts made to FFL If that's not flooding the forum and malicious intent, I don't know what is. NO ONE was this malicious in their overposting back when Posting Limits were first instituted -- not Judy, not Lawson, not Shemp. The only reason Richard's percentage of total posts was so low during the week ending August 30 is that Dan Friedman tried to emulate Richard's Net terrorist approach and made 252 posts of his own, increasing the noise but decreasing Richard's noise ratio. If Dan hadn't been posting, Richard's percentage would have been 23.8%. There is no sanity left there to appeal to in a person who posts this compulsively, and this consistently compulsively. Nuke this guy so we can forget him entirely, as if he had never existed. --- turquoiseb@... wrote : A friend who used to post here sent this short reaction to dropping by FFL for a look today to me in email.

And IMO it's clearly Rick's fault. As many have pointed out, he *could* do something to remove a person who has said outright that his only reason for posting so much is to fuck with people he doesn't like and ruin their site. But he doesn't. Clearly Rick doesn't read his own forum enough to even CARE what Richard Williams has turned the experience of reading it into. If it were me, given his history and how he's resisted any attempts to get him to lighten up for years now, I'd ban Richard for at least a year. With two conditions. First, if he attempts to create other IDs so he can post anyway, nuke each of the new IDs as they appear and make the ban permanent for life. Second, offer anyone still around on FFL after a year a vote

Now he wants to take away our freedom of speech AND nuke me. Not just everyone, just me. The problem is that it would affect almost everybody else. Apparently Barry wants to be the censor ANd the executioner. It's a good thing that we learned this about Barry. I think Judy was trying to tell us this for years, but many resisted the truth. I'm not sure I'd be willing to let him kill me - I'm still pretty good at fighting and now I'm armed. But, apparently there are a few here that would enable him and give him their support. Thank God, we live in America where that would be impossible. Let's just hope he never comes back over here again to cause us real harm.
