yep, im e, poor ole d has been put on moderation, so here are my closing comments, as again, the words of a few abusive types that cannot defend their antics have incited a riot, and of course, my public flogging my all including moderators.
the "rules of decorum" that are so stringently enforced here, have created the evolution of a brand new posting ability, the art of disguising ad homenims. some are quite good at it, others, not so much. the true character of several ME posters is unfortunately raising its ugly head. i may have used several nicks here, but at least im true to character, and dont hide behind multiple personas (sorry to contradict you molly). meanwhile it seems that some in here attempt hide their true persona behind a better-than-thou attitude displayed like a peacock in heat, while using words that spell checkers underline as wrong, in order to display their vast intellect. from what i have seen, the biggest attribute of those forced to hide behind decorum, is their profound and perfected ability to run the ad homenim disguise factory with one eye closed! to review some of the latest posts as examples; molly - "It is true that Allan Parker sometimes signed his posts and emails Allan, and used the member name espace and then desipsni (the one I stopped using because I could not remember how to spell it without referring back. The opinion of what we "should be doing" given his multiple personas is, I suppose, as varied as his name. I am not surprised that it is confusing." a few comments molly - the continuing ad homenims that you try so hard to disguise, are actually a mirror of your true persona, which is spewing forth in livid colour as we speak. speaking of which, i have one persona, with a variety of names (2) that i changed to get away from the harping that you are currently substantiating and supporting. i have attempted to explain the name change, obviously with no success. i even told you i was e_space in a personal email several weeks ago, remember??? to another “point” - everyone in the group knew me as inspired (hey, it IS easier to type it that way!), thats not confusing at all is it? until my great disguise got pummeled into the ground by slip, nobody had a problem with my name, except spelling it. some made a short form like D, or in slips case Drip [ummm .... no moderator comment about that somehow]. it seems you have now exacerbated the problem even more by putting my real name out there havent you. tsk tsk tsk another point - in case any of you guys are putting out a contract on me, my real name is actually alan. wouldnt want you getting lost in googleville because of a silly typo ;-] molly, please check your email for the proper spelling. another point - i have NEVER used my real name in a post...period, and if i did, i certainly wouldnt use 2 l's, silly girl! funny how someones truth is anothers fiction isnt it? another point - deripsni is inspired backwards. hold up a mirror then you can easily read it! While you are looking, please take a glance at your attitude. posting someones real name in a room is quite rude dont you think? another point [yawn] – my post to slip - “ I often do find you caustic and quite unfriendly at times." - molly's response that this is inclusive of “statements that exceed the guidelines so I will warn you to read the guidelines and stay within them” meanwhile, molly in a pre-moderator fit of righteousness states, - “In regard to Ian's inflammatory language, he has always used it and no call to action to date has convinced him to stop. The moderators here can be intimidating and aggressive” continues “letting their rude behavior roll off. I know that it reflects on them, not me. I see more for them.” - [and I am warned by her for saying i find skip to be caustic and unfriendly? … um yeah...i see the difference (cough)] Molly - “There is no argument with a warning, just the warning. Stop the behavior. It is not allowed.” [ so flog me publicly, but dont address my disagreement with your assessment? wow, hierarchy is great huh? no rules to follow.] another molly nicety - “I would ask, if you are so resolute within yourself, why are you in this group?” in response to my statement that I did not come to ME to learn. does that mean that i dont learn here, or dont want to learn here? it is not my purpose for coming here. should i have to justify my presence here? as you know molly, i never congratulated you when you became a moderator. personally, i wouldnt want the job. i had a sneaking premonition that it wasnt going to go well, which was quasi-confirmed after someone warned me that you had a messiah complex. lol. whatever. the fact that you became a moderator within a few seconds of the invitation was another red flag, that you are living up to in spades. i cant think of much else you could have done so far that could make your "promotion" a much bigger disappointment. Here is a statement you made just before you became a moderator “Chris, if I were a moderator, I would avoid inflammatory language when responding to members ideas and not accuse anyone of dishonesty, but rather, present my ideas with more respectful language and treat any question of honesty with personal email and moderation if necessary” - [wow, did you get that one wrong or what...on more than one count???] molly in a recent public post, (even after i was told to take it private), described me as a stalker, following her around from thread to thread to spread my “snide” and “disruptive” comments. molly, with all kindness, youve lost it! you have not addressed one of my points and just continue smearing my name to all listeners. drop the moderator crown molly before it gives you a headache. Here are a few more examples of well disguised (or not) ad homenims that have not received one comment from the moderators, during this time that I am getting publicly flogged for using the words such as caustic and unfriendly. iam deheretic - Oops here I go again..

Down boy, bad bad boy ;o) Allan [wow (the real allan), not much of an ad homenim disguise there my friend. im sure u can do much better than that although here are a few of your other ones that dont indicate much success at disguise! ] Allan - “there is simply a lot you don't know about spiritual experiences” [to date I dont recall you stating that you ever have had one, and what u “know” about my spiritual experiences is NIL, so this is a pretty harsh statement based on …. well, nothing] Allan - “Your brain” - in response to my question “What am I missing?” [dont recall hearing much of a warning from the modgods (as bb calls ya) on this one. is being selective a good trait for a moderator? it seems so] gruff - I've never been good at anagrams and that sort of stuff. His name is correct though, isn't it. He's the opposite of inspiring. - [ i would refer to this as an ad homenim with no clothes on. the inspirations that i have had cannot be put into words, so i presume u are saying that yours can? i am not all that inspired (cough) by humanity gruff, but its okay that you revel in yours ] Skip – nah, i wont even start, even the thought of collecting the data is tiring. Chris - “Slip has been warned about his behaviour [hmmm, must have missed it, or was that proffered in private?]. You have been warned about yours repeatedly. The topic is over, and if you feel the need to continue it, do so offlist with an email to the moderators directly. This is not the forum for it. You will be placed on moderation if there are any more responses along this line.” its funny chris, that one can be warned in public, but cannot defend oneself in public. if u dont want conversations about warnings infesting your precious thread, warn in private. i have been told by a moderator that they chose to publicly warn us about bad “behavior” in order to keep the rules of decorum close in the minds of posters, as a reminder to follow group guidelines, even though it is quite evident that these rules are not even being followed by the board. we are not school children, and your VERY weak effort to quarantine the room is having the adverse affect. not only are you totally unfair in that you do not treat all sprouters of ad homenims equally, you also break your own rules. my view of the moderation here is similar to my feelings about religion. it seems the hierarchy of almost every group gets spoiled. the base of the mountain is mostly great, lots of sunshine with a bit of rain, half way up very scenic although often foggy with occasional lightning, while the top is dangerous, full of crags, and very cold. mollys ongoing personal attack on me is like a witch hunt, conducted while warning me for saying the same things she is. it is a focused snapshot of moderation gone bad. chris also publicly warned me to take up this farce in private. that is totally hilarious. hey chris, you have my email, why did u feel it was necessary to tell me this in public? i could go on and on, but i think u get the message. either moderate with fairness, or let a little spat flare on occasion. your failed attempts to create peace in here is backfiring like a fireworks display on the 4th of july. u are creating chaos in your attempt to ensure decorum. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups ""Minds Eye"" group.
