As I read through this thread I feel you all moderating yourselves in accord with the advice of the Yahoo-groups guidelines. I find no need now to step in here between you all. Had it completely devolved simply to the personal belligerence of a spitting contest, 'you're angry vs I'm not angry' ad nauseam I should advise self-moderation and that you take yourselves off-list and spare the community your personalized argument. However this thread in process seems to be resolving itself in thoughtful way around the content. Generally if it were to continue on devolved as just a pissing contest I would request that folks take their personal argument off-line and spare the list otherwise or else suffer having the flow of their posts as they write to FFL be moderated, and then possibly released to the list for general reading as I may get around to them. More succinctly, we've learned a lot about Edg here by his writing in this thread and people seem to be self-moderating as this goes along. If this or any other argument devolves to personalized arguments of “You're a [..insert insulting slur] person. - No, I'm not [insult]” endlessly, folks will feel the levers of moderation pulled in accord with the Yahoo-groups guidelines. -JaiGuruYou ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, richard@... wrote : Well, yes, this is what subscribers are supposed to do: read the messages and post their comments.

[FairfieldLife] Hackers
As soon as you access the internet data highway with your computer, security is out of the question. The ideal and secure computer is a system without any contact to the outside world - no disks, no flash drives, no CD-DVD drives, or cameras and no direct contact to other computers by modem or network card or cable. Many people do not realize that a computer connected to the internet reveals details about their personal life: who they are, where they work, where they go, who they visit, and their surfing habits. It's all there - housed as digital information at a data center somewhere. Most hacker exploits wouldn't be a problem if programmers were a bit more diligent in their coding. strcpy () is your enemy, strncpy () is your friend.

Yours was proly not the moment of decline but the list had evidently jumped a shark before with an influx of personal antagonisms which have since developed into some literary forms of perfection in a hyper personalization of the ad hominem meme here to hurt people. Me:I appreciate your saying that now Doug.

I also do not want schools to be confused between my adult communications here and what I might teach in schools. D: Folks are now making a lot of assumptions about my feelings about content. I had long interviews with Rick about this in coming in to the job of FFL CEO. However, my coming in to the FFL CEO [Chief Enforcement Officer] of yahoo's groups-guidelines is not about content but is about the personalization of unkindness that has become cultural on FFL, like the unkindness you experienced. Me: I am not sure I can go along with conflating purposeful personal identity outing to hurt someone in the real world with unkindness. It minimizes the intent to actually harm. I couldn't care less about people writing unkind things about me. I just don't want my full legal name published in an attempt to link my writing on this site with the rest of my work with the public. Personally I felt as though the instigators of this behavior all went to their own group so as far as I am concerned the problem is solved with them being gone. Their drive-bys have only reinforced this view. I will cop to making assumptions about your feelings about content. I have been confused by your actual views verses your Buck persona for a few years now.

Basically, this is the rap: My suggestion for the best example I've found in fiction to represent what the mindset driving this recent push for moderation on Fairfield Life really is, what the emotions and motivations are that drive it, and what it hopes to accomplish, are the moments between 40:40 and 52:50 in the season finale of Game Of Thrones titled Mother's Mercy. In that segment, a representative of the fanatical religious cult who calls himself the High Sparrow gets to force someone he hates to undergo his idea of atonement, walking naked through a crowd of people who jeer at the High Sparrow's victim and throw shit and and garbage at them, while his female sycophant walks along behind the victim, ringing a bell and chanting Shame! Shame! Shame! Shame! And all of this is viewed as not only necessary but the vindication of spirituality and religion -- what is needed to set things right and return society to its proper balance. For those who have been watching Game Of Thrones, I allow you to choose who on FFL plays the role of the High Sparrow, and who plays the part of the Crazed Nun chanting Shame! Shame! Shame! Shame! with a look of ecstasy on her face, as if finally being able to do this *and* get praised for it is the highest moment in her life.

LoL!/ Quoting dhamiltony...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife] FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com: CDB, I am glad you are back and I hope I can lend you as well as some others who would return some protection of trust and safety here to write more freely. The railroading of you by invasion of privacy was one of the more infamous times of abuse on FFL. That personalized invasion of your privacy was a low point on FFL that was way against Rick's original intentions for the site and clearly against what are now the yahoo-groups guidelines. Yours was proly not the moment of decline but the list had evidently jumped a shark before with an influx of personal antagonisms which have since developed into some literary forms of perfection in a hyper personalization of the ad hominem meme here to hurt people. Folks are now making a lot of assumptions about my feelings about content. I had long interviews with Rick about this in coming in to the job of FFL CEO. However, my coming in to the FFL CEO [Chief Enforcement Officer] of yahoo's groups-guidelines is not about content but is about the personalization of unkindness that has become cultural on FFL, like the unkindness you experienced. Generally going forward now, folks should expect that their posts will be summarily deleted where unkindness crosses in to violation of the yahoo-groups guidelines. The guidelines are really quite simple and the many sophist-icated and several of our professional writers here can take the time for self-restraint before they may push their send button to FFL. Writing more generally, soon I am going to start following Rick's lead on this and start to delete posts or more made to the list without warning where the invective in writing is personalized. Yes it is fine to comment, deal with and thoughtfully consider content but if folks are having arguments that are personal they should just take themselves offline and spare FFL. Going forward, personalized name-calling that is degrading, disrespectful or humiliating will quickly be seen to become abuse on FFL. Read through the yahoo-groups guidelines and reflect. Where it is at all evident just expect to be moderated one way or another by any of the moderators without explanation. Generally, I do not expect to spend much time editing at all on this or discussing this, particularly with trolls at all. Take the time to read over the yahoo-groups guidelines and write accordingly. Error well on the side of kindness and you will be well within the yahoo-groups guidelines and fine. I appreciate and understand that some lot of folks here spend a lot of their life energy and time composing things to post on FFL. Going forward now, self-regulate yourselves according to the yahoo guidelines error-ing well on the side of kindness and save yourself your time invested in writing.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Does PC trump satire?
/Is it something I said? LoL!/ Quoting Duveyoung no_re...@yahoogroups.com: I have posted a lot of personal attacks on folks I have decided were trolls, but I thought I was doing so with creativity. For instance, that list of about ten insults aimed at Willy that I wrote were quite creative despite their being vitriolic and MEANT to sting. Were they creative enough to be called satire or were they mere mud slinging? Can't I actually justify wanting to sting someone in response to their attacks on me? Why does PC trump my right as an artist to express my disdain in any manner that is not physically destructive of the property of others? If the emotional responses of others is considered to be their property that can be damaged by a well aimed blurb, then I think we have a problem, Houston. Whose emotions? I am not responsible for my brothers' feelings. No one is -- except themselves -- maybe. Just maybe. Karma is unfathomable -- does anyone argue with that concept? If I am the arbiter of what is truth, what is smarm, what is hate speech etc., then let me tells ya -- I am ABSOLUTELY OFFENDED BY ALMOST EVERYTHING POSTED HERE. See? I cannot be allowed to impose my value-set upon anyone, because I might be, what? cruel, stupid, heartless, silly or a combo of all these traits? If this were an ashram, then an agreed upon set of values would be the core of that community. Here at FFL, perhaps that was once a hope, but long gone 'tis. So, if this isn't an ashram, but YET STILL we now have an, as if, Values of Damocles hanging above our heads -- a moderation of UNKNOWABLE, not merely unknown, potency, are we not now set up for a huge fight here if someone gets dumped because someone else was too sensitive instead of real-world tough? Just to be clearsince Doug has been appointed, I personally have been ATTACKED by several posters -- done with very subtle innuendo etc., but there it is -- PLAIN AS DAY. The intended message is: you are a disposable mind. See? Not your logic needs some correction, but the insinuation is you will never have anything to offer here that would be of any interest to me, and why are you taking up my mind-time by posting your crap here you fucking worm -- or something like that. THAT'S THE FEELING LEVELsome small insinuation is all it takes..consult Willy on this...he is a master at pimping people with truth. And that's the truth.not a jab at Willy's ribs with a sharpened elbow. And I'll make all this really silly: I hereby affirm my hereinabove mentioned list of insults for Willy is my work, and I would publish it again tomorrow if I had not already written it. I meant it. I don't like Willy, and I've got many reasons, and I don't hear Doug inviting me to present my case to him for why Willy should be dumped just on the history of his posting alone. I meant it.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Moderating The Peep Show
This doesn't seem to me like a good way to welcome the new moderator, to suggest he might go off his rocker because he is religious. Obviously you're interested in religion and the spiritual movement in Fairfield, otherwise you wouldn't even be here. All Doug is asking you to do is be civil and avoid starting an online riot or flame war. Thanks. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, anartaxius@... wrote : No, no, ... you need some restraints on your mental excesses. It was an alternative suggestion if Doug went off his rocker, but so far we have no evidence of what might happen, which is pretty much the way life is anyway. Now that Doug has assumed this office, for which he has been campaigning since the universe began, he does have a responsibility both to Rick and to us, so I do not see why he should not be allowed the attempt. To do this right you have to step out of your personal quirks and manage a larger realm, so it might be a good learning experience. Doug seems to have a sort of religious background, whereas many of us here do not or abandoned these background indoctrinations. That would mean many things some of us think are false, Doug may think are true. I wonder if he will feel a conflict? Question: why seventhray? Seven rays is a common metaphor in a lot of spiritual traditions. Why not eight, or nine? Problem here is we have a lot of half rays. Together they could add up though.

Fairfield, Iowa is home to Maharishi University of Management, founded by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in 1971. There are about 2000 Transcendental Meditation practitioners here, as well as many others pursuing various spiritual paths. What is wanted is not the will to believe, but the wish to find out, which is the exact opposite. ~ Bertrand Russell We often discuss the trials and tribulations of the TM Movement, which may not interest some, but that's why God created the delete key. Discussions also draw from diverse teachers such as Ammachi, Eckhart Tolle, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, Byron Katie, Dalai Lama, Jesus Christ, Buddha, Ramana Maharshi, Shankara, etc. The healthy mind challenges its own assumptions. ~ The I Ching Pretty much any topic is fair game. Currently, there's a lot of discussion about American politics. We have discussed spirituality, politics, economics, morality and higher states of consciousness, drug laws, evolution vs. creationism, enlightenment, advaita, reincarnation, karma, Jyotish (Vedic astrology), yagya, Ayurveda, dzogchen, tantra, channeling, vegetarianism, kundalini, celibacy, sexuality, homosexuality, abortion, racism, UFOs, Buddhism, Hinduism, Veda, Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Scientology, etc. Whatever you think, it's more than that ~ Incredible String Band You can lurk without joining, but you have to join to post.

When I had Dish installed in 2001 I was the first HD customer the installer had set up. As it was after he left I set it up correctly. ;-) It sounds complicated. Fall of 2013 Comcast encrypted basic cable so I fired them. The customer rep told me she would rather do without her cellphone than be without cable. Yeah, right! Try watching Sense8 on Dish.

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.

The really sad part of this is that Barry 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.

In her absence from FFL, my memory became numb regarding her willful intransigence. However, her FFL persona once again appears only bounded by her current choice of likes and dislikes - something variable from season to season, poster to poster. This character trait indicates a petty (sometimes viciously petty) mentality – something self-serving in function and compulsive in expression. Like you and many readers here, I overlook Barry’s baiting barbs and self-involved vignettes. After all, on FFL we are free to ignore or reply as we see fit - doing the same thing that Barry professes. At least Barry offers some original assertions and views – all of that rather than the old, “you are a liar, a thief and an uncharged felon”. I can read your posts only sometimes because I have limited available time - if at all. But, when I do, I still appreciate the /apatheia/. Many of our posting folks seem to lack even the semblance of dispassion.

So, I guess we know what you did on Saturday night. LoL! ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, turquoiseb@... wrote : I have the luxury of having a whole weekend off with no work I have to do, so I admit to having binge-watched this series (Sense8) a bit. I did this even though as Michael said the Wachowskis have only made one good move, a few mediocre movies, and a few really, really awful movies. And I must say that my hopefulness and willingness to give them a break have paid off -- I'm now on episode 6 of Sense8 and I've quite enjoyed the ride so far. Part of it, as you suggest, is the group mind thing. I find that this concept is handled pretty well in the series, especially at the beginning when these 8 people from all over the world who suddenly find themselves mind-linked are spending most of their time saying WTF???! and wondering what is going on. I find the travelogue nature of the show -- literally bouncing from Chicago to London to Nairobi to Seoul to Mexico City to Mumbai to San Francisco to Berlin -- fascinating, and enjoy the way the various directors have presented the visuals of these different places. That's another thing -- there really are various directors, and not just the Wachowskis. Tom Tykwer (Run Lola Run, Perfume: Story of a Murderer) directed the most recent episode I watched. As for the mystery of how I find the movies and TV shows I recommend, I have to shrug my shoulders like Johnny Depp and say, Pirate! Really. You have to remember that I don't have to actually pay for *any* of these things I watch. I *do* still buy DVD sets for great films or series I enjoy if I want to see the extras or the making of specials, and I still go out to the cinema if it's a film that I feel really has to be seen up on the big screen (like the recent Mad Max: Fury Road), but mainly I get my leads just from my own intuition and a lifetime of experience as a fan of the cinema. I'll just scan down a list of the new movies and TV shows available on my torrent feed, and when I encounter one I don't know, I just look it up quickly on IMDB and if it sounds interesting either because of the cast or the director of whatever, I'll just download it and give it a shot. I live in a pirate-friendly country, and so literally have nothing to lose but a little time if I make a bad intuitive choice. But most of the time my guesses are pretty good. What I *don't* do is read other people's reviews, either of TV or movies. I *write* such reviews under a number of different names for a number of different publications, and so to keep from being influenced by other critics' words, I don't read them. The only time I ever really read someone's review of a movie or TV show is *after* I have seen it. All of this said, I'm finding Sense8 quite enjoyable and to be a somewhat quality production, whereas I found the recent Aquarius to be mediocre in the extreme -- I wouldn't recommend it to anyone unless they're feeling nostalgic for the look and feel of California in 1967. The only movie that's really knocked my socks off lately was Ex Machina and the only three series that are currently being broadcast (that is, not currently on hiatus) that I really *love* are Game Of Thrones, Orphan Black, and Hannibal. If I'm feeling in a Gothic mood, I watch Penny Dreadful and the new Jonathan Strange Mr Norrell. I will *sorely* miss Justified, which ended recently, and my favorites among the shows that recently finished for the season were Outlander and Dig and The Knick and The Blacklist and 12 Monkeys. The *single* best TV episodes I've seen in recent months were the Hardhome episode (S05E08) of Game Of Thrones and the Antipasto episode (S03E01) of Hannibal. Both pretty much constitute state of the art when it comes to television writing, casting, acting, production, and directing. BTW, thanks for talking about something you enjoy, and allowing me to do the same. This is the point that Salyavin was trying to make about the Oh I'm being abused by trolls whiners.

A classical liberal he most certainly was not. Apologists for Islam point out that at the time Muhammad was engaged in open warfare between his own followers and others, like Jews, Christians and pagans, so picking up on those passages which reveal his closed mind is like criticizing anti-German propaganda during the Second World War. There's something to be said for that but the sheer relentlessness of his constant talk of unbelievers roasting in Hell does suggest someone with issues. There is a strange, incantatory poetry about some passages and I've little doubt that Muhammad did have a genuine spiritual experience (Allah is Nearer to Man than his Jugular Vein) and he did wish to see a united community at peace.

And I must say that my hopefulness and willingness to give them a break have paid off -- I'm now on episode 6 of Sense8 and I've quite enjoyed the ride so far. Part of it, as you suggest, is the group mind thing. I find that this concept is handled pretty well in the series, especially at the beginning when these 8 people from all over the world who suddenly find themselves mind-linked are spending most of their time saying WTF???! and wondering what is going on. I find the travelogue nature of the show -- literally bouncing from Chicago to London to Nairobi to Seoul to Mexico City to Mumbai to San Francisco to Berlin -- fascinating, and enjoy the way the various directors have presented the visuals of these different places. That's another thing -- there really are various directors, and not just the Wachowskis. Tom Tykwer (Run Lola Run, Perfume: Story of a Murderer) directed the most recent episode I watched. As for the mystery of how I find the movies and TV shows I recommend, I have to shrug my shoulders like Johnny Depp and say, Pirate! Really. You have to remember that I don't have to actually pay for *any* of these things I watch. I *do* still buy DVD sets for great films or series I enjoy if I want to see the extras or the making of specials, and I still go out to the cinema if it's a film that I feel really has to be seen up on the big screen (like the recent Mad Max: Fury Road), but mainly I get my leads just from my own intuition and a lifetime of experience as a fan of the cinema. I'll just scan down a list of the new movies and TV shows available on my torrent feed, and when I encounter one I don't know, I just look it up quickly on IMDB and if it sounds interesting either because of the cast or the director of whatever, I'll just download it and give it a shot. I live in a pirate-friendly country, and so literally have nothing to lose but a little time if I make a bad intuitive choice. But most of the time my guesses are pretty good. What I *don't* do is read other people's reviews, either of TV or movies. I *write* such reviews under a number of different names ! for a number of different publications, and so to keep from being influenced by other critics' words, I don't read them.

You just do not seem to grasp the difference between fiction and non-fiction in regard to the relationship of thoughts and speech to the world, and of thoughts and speech to action or non-action. I think morality is a useless concept because usually it is based on a superstitious world-view, but that ethics is something we need to formulate to maximise happiness and well-being, though I think of the word in a different sense than typical, not related to the concepts of 'right' and 'wrong' which vary with geography and cultural groups, but as something that might have a stronger more solid basis, scientific even, though that might be a stretch. As the experience of being takes over, the inner core of a person rots away because it is not real and is replaced with a 'core' that is not localised, not inner, not outer. So yes, I have rotted to the core. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, reverse_archery@... wrote : Xeno, you appear to be giving child molestation a pass, as simply subject to our conditioning.

Plus which, as Jim has gone on to point out to you, the group setting not moderated refers to approving or disapproving messages before they're posted. There is indeed moderation after the fact on FFL in certain very specific situations, as Alex noted (he left out breach of privacy, e.g., outing the real name of a person who wishes to remain anonymous). It's a question of *how much* moderation takes place and on what basis. That is correct. This group lost a significant segment of its regular participants due to unrestrained malicious trolling. They represented a general perspective of which the group is now largely deprived. There's a real sense in which a group does not qualify as a free speech zone if those members taking one side of an argument are treated so badly by the other side that they no longer want to participate. Yes people left over what I would consider a stupid point. Remember this group deals with transcendental meditation and those practising this technique are supposed to develop certain qualities such as integration, harmony, discrimination, purposefulness, precision, order, intelligence, infallibility, and other progressive characteristics, so it seems purposeful to test those qualities in people in the group to see if those qualities are really present. About half the people here no longer practise it or practise something else. So, according to the advertisements, those not practising TM any more perhaps should show less of those qualities. This does not seem to be the case however. The main thing missing is invincibility. Those who leave lack invincibility, they have not developed a way to stand their ground. You stood your ground, Barry stood his ground. A lot of the others folded in this environment. It is not as if the weapons here are guns and knives against which invincibility tends not to be very effective. There are really sharp disagreements as to what is and is not real in spirituality. I think it all comes down to criteria for what is considered evidence as to what is real, there are fundamental disagreements about that. You were the lynch pin of the the group you refer to as the 'general perspective' which was typically more tolerant of religious ideas and woo, even though you were actually more critical of many of these ideas than the people who tended to gather around you. When you left, they lost their spokesperson, they were not as aggressive as you and generally less capable of fashioning an argument for response. They rode your coattails, but that is not something you can do if you want to be invincible and want to stand up for a point. Another thing that occurs to me is there is a religion non-religion divide here which breaks down into considerations of whether spirituality is theistic or non-theistic. For example my spiritual inclinations have always been non-theistic. Historically on this planet, divisions between theists and the division between theism and atheism have resulted in some of the worst cases of human behaviour on the planet. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, anartaxius@... wrote : It is for Yahoo to enforce guidelines, not Rick.

Yes Rick allows trolls, although who is and is not a troll partially depends on whether you like the content or not. Share liked Richard's content, while I think he is a troll. Would be easier to scan through things if Richard was not on the site. Because Rick does not post much, and does not actively moderate the site content, what rule is he breaking? Content by others is not moderated, the guidelines specify self-moderation because Rick choose the hands-off option. Is 'darn' allowed bit not 'damn'? Seems like there is a certain flexibility. Generally I observe people want content that they disagree with to be moderated, so which one is right in a disagreement over this? You do not break a rule because another does. I am not confused. I just do not care what you think about this particular subject. Moderating may require having some personal issues with what people say. If the guidelines were followed slavishly and literally, FFL would be as boring as The Peak usually is. If I were moderating this site, I would only eliminate one poster in the current group. Suppose I was moderating this site, and I made a rule that you had prove beyond a reasonable doubt that God existed before you were allowed to use the word or even the concept and related words on this site (you could publish a scientific paper in Science or Nature, that was accepted by scientists and replicated, that would work). You could talk about spirituality, but you could not use the word, say, 'divine' and others, otherwise you would be eliminated. What would your reaction be? ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, reverse_archery@... wrote : Surely you aren't as naive as you make yourself out to be, Xeno? Yes, the site is not moderated, but that is only a technical distinction. The Peak is not moderated either, with regard to the group settings. You possibly don't grasp the difference between moderating a site proactively, which is what the Yahoo setting refers to, and consciously breaking the rules here, as Rick does. Rick enables trolls, and that is definitely against the guidelines here. I hope that clears things up.
