The ringleader just stopped posting after an especially embarrassing fiasco, and then one of his minions opened The_Closet, whereupon the rest of the thugs left FF2 and, along with the ringleader, showed up over there. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> wrote : So, the "thugs" got banned from FFL and so they ran over to The Corner, but where do the meditators in Fairfield go when they've been banned from the campus? ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <authfriend@...> wrote : Actually, Ollie, while FFL2 is still "active" in the sense of being open, activity there has been sporadic for a while. Once the thugs had run over to The_Closet with their tails between their legs, there just weren't enough people to keep FFL2 going steadily, and much of the activity has moved back to FFL. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <olliesedwuz@...> wrote : FFL2 is very much active, if you care to join and post there. The ones who caused so much trouble here went to FFL2, until they got called on their shit, and made tracks, willingly. We are all adults here, making our own decisions. There aren't any victims. Those who have chosen to exclude themselves did it by choice, without any prompting. As for those booted from FFL for inadequate social skills, live and learn. So, howz about some of that "controversial spirituality" from you, huh? Let's see how much you are banned, shunned, stalked and harassed after sharing it...but I won't be holding my breath. Your fantasy doesn't hold up. There are mostly those who get along in the world, and there are a few fuck ups. The fuck ups unfortunately leak their garbage onto others, and for that reason are not welcome here. Get it? Could be a site about *shoes* and the same rules apply. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> wrote : One of the other FFL moderators created a "free speech" zone on Yahoo Groups, but, it looks like they were shut down by cyber stalkers, following them around on the internet. Kicked out of the Dome and banned from campus - shunned. Banned from FFL and stalked. This just doesn't appear to be much of a spiritual group. Now that's ironic! ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <awoelflebater@...> wrote : Well, at least FFL and Doug aren't like The Corner where there is a bouncer at the door with a prepared list of those who can't even get in the room. Talk about censorship and lack of free speech. In addition, you can't even read anything there unless you are on the list of approved individuals. And the guy who started that forum and those who are in attendance were the ones giving Doug a hard time about the lack of free speech at FFL. Too ironic to be believed. Luckily, since I know everyone over there and have heard what they have to say about a hundred times I'm not remotely interested in getting admitted. Some things just don't get better with age. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <olliesedwuz@...> wrote : In Doug's defense, not one person has *ever* been banned from FFL for not meeting his definition of "spiritual". The reason a few were banned, is that they lacked basic social skills, and were more interested in being a pain in the ass, vs. contributing anything of substance. Had nothing to do with content, and everything to do with not playing well with others, due to immaturity, a lack of manners, and no self-discipline. Perhaps you could quit making shit up? Thanks in advance.../////// ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> wrote : What you may not realize is that the way you're running this discussion forum is just like they run the Dome - banning and shunning people that don't meet your definition of spiritual. You're obviously selling TM and using your position as FFL moderator to enforce guidelines "as a primary retributive tool to discipline a sales force." Maybe you could set us straight by answering a few questions. What is your exact position, if any, with MUM? Are you a re-certified TM teacher in good standing with the TM Org? Did you graduate from the university, and if not, why not? Sometimes, you seem to be posting under various aliases. Why is that? ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <dhamiltony2k5@...> wrote : This kind of thing is just bad irony and publicity for what is going on here. It is plenty past time to just go and gut the Dome guidelines of the ‘non-compete’ clauses particularly around the practice of jyotish. Fairfield is full of people secretly promoting and practicing jyotish and giving readings. Every time the Weekly Reader boldly publishes astrology from David Hawthorne it is a reminder of how he and his family in moving to Fairfield to be part of something larger were ridiculously judged and screwed by the movement. This is just plain bad for the energetics of the community here. Everyone gets the irony of going to Pat Hayward for consultation too. Everyone at all levels of the ™ movement does it. It is quite time to stop using the Dome badge guidelines as weapon-ry against the community. IThis has been Self-destructive all along. The Dome badge guidelines need to be made much simpler to what it simply takes to run a group meditation and stop using the Dome badge guidelines as a primary retributive tool to discipline a sales force; let administration of a sales force of the re-cert TM teachers be the particular dealings of an HR or legal departments for the teaching side [Maharishi Foundation] of the movement. It is time to damn and dump those ‘non-compete’ clauses around the practice of jyotish. -JaiGuruYou
