I think Doug's right in this case. Salyavin was being quite snotty, assuming erroneously that my post on t3rinity's email was gratuitous; and I got a little snotty back. The exchange wouldn't have improved from there.
At least now anybody who's curious knows my post on FFL2 was not at all gratuitous. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <awoelflebater@...> wrote : ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <dhamiltony2k5@...> wrote : Your thread here has descended to being personalized slurs between yourselves. Take your personal stuff this way offline between you. Thanks in advance, -JaiGuruYou The only difference here, Doug, is that Judy is attempting to illustrate to Salyavin that a double standard is being supported. These kinds of exchanges have often degenerated into mud slinging in the past but with the removal or movement of many to the alternate forum this is less inclined to happen here now. Explanations for why someone posted something are not necessarily personal or "not being a good citizen". In short: Be a good citizen — Treat others with respect and report content that violates our Guidelines. Stay on topic — Keep your content relevant to the group and moderate it correctly. Follow the law — We'll take appropriate action if we find you breaking the law. Here's how you can get the most out of Groups: Share what you know. Find the groups that are right for you. Chances are, someone can benefit from what you have to contribute. Be courteous. Everyone wants to be treated with respect, and showing respect to others makes the community better for all members. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <authfriend@...> wrote : salyavin wrote: I thought it inadvertently revealed who Judy is. Imagine the thought process that remembered a post from long ago that she thought might be embarrassing to two people, searching for it, joining the group and hoping it does the job she never managed to do herself. Who does that? Does it sound like a reasonable way to spend the day? And what did she put in the reason for joining box on the site; "I've got some muck to rake"? I'm embarrassed on her behalf. OK, when I responded to this earlier, I couldn't find the FFL2 post that had reallly inspired my post with t3rinity's 2008 email, so I didn't mention it. Now I've found it. Here it is, if you have the guts to look: https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/FFL-2/conversations/messages/201 https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/FFL-2/conversations/messages/201 But I bet you don't. It's a link to a crazy essay Robin Carlsen wrote more than 30 years ago when he was in the throes of his purported Unity consciousness experience--and by his own estimation today, nutty as a bedbug. He repudiated the essay when t3rinity posted it a couple of years ago on FFL in order to embarrass him. Note that this time, t3rinity doesn't bother to date the essay nor point out that Robin has disavowed it, leaving the entirely false impression that it represents Robin's current thinking. t3rinity posted it with the intention of drawing me in to defend Robin, but I decided to post t3rinity's 2008 email instead. That's called "Turnabout is fair play." Or "What goes around, comes around." If you had any integrity, you'd now be embarrassed on t3rinity's behalf instead.
