You can go back and edit two of them into something smaller if you'd like... such as a period, or a smiley face. Welcome to the forum, TheCLounge.

Hi xxxxx. You likely missed this, since it was in another thread, so here's a copy for you, and whoever else might have missed it: Thanks in advance for your help with this, and for not underestimating the abilities of 'old women' warmest regards ***** Edit to add: After posting the above, our valued member here requested that his post be deleted, which I did. I like that there are many people here who value TDB as a place of very lively discussion and debate - while still being able to maintain a respectful demeanor. Great job, all.

Seems so!!

I think that's up to you. Perhaps it's best now to get back on topic, or take a break from this thread so others may continue.

Just to clarify, insulting others to provoke fights is not allowed. You are allowed to be an ass. Better to do that over in Off-grid. Try the Talk Trump thread. There are other Asses over there who seem to enjoy the same rush you do. Be warned however, the forum rules apply throughout TDB; including the Off-grid section.

That is not allowed. Here are the forum rules you agreed to.

I figured you were able to handle two replies; apologies as that seems not to be the case.

Courts determine the facts, not accusers. Defending Moore? More like defending due process and the right to be presumed innocent.

Thank you for finally showing us who you are, and your intentions for being here. It might be that you are addicted to dopamine and adrenaline. You seem to get a little thrill out of insulting others; the thrill of the fight. Perhaps you use that feeling and think it's cultivation? No idea what that would be cultivating other than how to be an ass. I wonder what would happen if you took your addiction to insulting others to face to face interactions and see how that stimulates you. It might not turn out the way you would like it to.

(my bold) No, you cannot be offensive here. But that doesn't mean you have to be passive. There is another way. As we move through energy - there are at least 3 ways: float along (passive) fight against it (offensive) and maneuver and manipulate the energy and the situation so we get where we want to be without expending excess energy. Doing so takes practice and skill. The first unlearned way, when it seems flow is against you, is to fight fight fight! If you by chance see that is the only way to not be passive (and still get to where you want to be) then two things will happen. First, you will intentionally or unintentionally create situations that set up fight energy - by poking at others, or being offensive, or insulting - so that you can resist against it and interact in the only way you know how. Its understandable if that is all one knows how to do then that is what they will do. But, the second thing that will happen is here, in TDB, doing this will also get you - or anyone else - banned. Quickly, and without hesitation. It is possible to have lively debates and argue points and perspectives and ideas - without needing to use offensive personal attacks against another member. We have been doing it for years and you can too if you decide to. But ultimately the choice is always yours, to go or stay. If you decide to stay - and I hope you do - then work on your skills might be in order, to develop your own method to get where you want to be without having to resort to that which has no place in this forum. Warm regards

Your words are not a burden, manitou; our exchanges helped me as much as they might have helped you. That door stays open and is filled with love, always and only.

Very much so. Well put.

~~~ SPLIT BY STAFF ~~~ Your America? Oh. Right. You mean the 'people you like'. Gotcha..

Whatever. After 4 posts of increasing crap I spoke up. Don't like it? Report me.

He was cutting down rednecks. I was just curious where you drew the line as to who/what fell under your umbrella of protection. I'm not curious any more; you've explained yourself well. Thanks!

Right! Your examples are horse, cart. Seeking cure before illness occurs is cart, horse. It's all good, CloudHands, we know you're just playing a bit. But I will slow down for you, take all the time you need, TDB isn't going anywhere.

It's not about Realization, it's not a step to Realization. That said... if you fall through it you'll sure as hell realize what's happened. LOLOL

If you enact unneeded laws, the criminals will appear If you find an unneeded cure, its illness will appear Surely you have that one figured out, yes?

Why else would you post the thread if it didn't reflect your perspective? All things, including TDB, are in a dynamic balance...so there's little reason to flip off the lights.

Damn...I'm in the lead again. Gotta quit posting.

I dont know what Wizzy Ozzy is, but I THANK YOU for your post, and encourage everyone to THANK YOU as well.
