Dear Syn
We come here to discuss truth and logic.
Why would need a new look for that? 
Maybe in the future when the software of the progaram itself changes, then we may get the new look.

Perhaps it is the world itself which needs a complete new look, a complete new way of looking at life. There is a reason why they have the forums like this Syn, a reason which if you question for long enough will reveal itself. |

I agree Syn. The search engine leaves something to be desired and I cant put a hyperlink in my signature. It also looks a little bland.
I've offered my IT skills to FIGU USA free of charge for helping out with the website in general but I do not know of anything in the works.
Its not important though. Surely your colleagues can look beyond aethetics and see the true value of this forum?

Exactly I agree with James.
You can encourage your friends to look beyond the physical. One should not always be asking for physical things, they should look to the spiritual.

Adity: How can we look beyond the physical, if we are totally avoid of the most elemental logistic knowledge of the spiritual things?
For me an advance beyond the physical mean to do something like teleportation, see the animosity of the people toward me, to move objets, spontaneous combustion of an enemy, remote percepcion...and so on...

Dear Incredible,
What I mean to say is that, we should not be craving for physical things too much. We should be happy with what we get, and not keep craving for more.
Take the example of money, its a physical thing, but being greedy for it destroys a person. Yes, you do need money in this world but you should only get it if you have worked for it. You dont deserve it, if you havent done anything for it.
Thats why I say, we just need to be happy with what we have. If we work hard, we can get what we deserve.

I'm not speaking about money. If the things that Balli preach is truth the money and the material possessions are sh...t with limited power, compared with the consciousness power.
I'm speaking about reaching spiritual powers, or as you say consciousness power.
For me to reach consciousness powers is a true advance in the spiritual things. Otherwise there is not advance.

Hello Dear Moderators,
Why the 'Non-FIGU Related' section in 'General Area' has all topic names ending with '- blocked' while I can see that I can still post in those threads there??
I don't believe anything.

Hi Stafath,
Check the announcement page.
We missed blocking a couple of topics.. thats why they were still open.
PS: might be worth using the search function every once in a while

Hi mods, I just realized something that this forum is missing:
An option to adjust the post times to reflect our own respective time zones.
This would make an excellent addition to the forum because it would make it a bit more "user-friendly"; I suppose that this would best be placed in the profile options.
Hmm, what do you think? |

I realized another thing which may be of help to board users; it's concerning the search engine. Of course a good board search engine is essential for helping a board to serve as a reference "piece", keeping questions from being repeated, and as a result helps to keep the board from getting so cluttered (which seems to be quite a priority):
Under "Keyword options" perhaps you could put an option for "Match exact phrase"? Also, under "Search by date" how about the options of "months" and "years" be added?
Allow me to preface this next part by 1st saying that it's not my intention AT ALL to become a thorn in your sides, and that regardless of any decisions about these suggestions (and that's all that they are, of course), I very much enjoy, and plan on continuing to frequent, the boards:
That being said, I understand the purpose of keeping the ability to edit posts limited, but perhaps the alloted time for editing could be extended from 1 minute to an hour (or even 2)? I mean, it doesn't seem to be an immensely active board, so I find that it's not uncommon for myself to wander away for a bit, only to come back and see that a post was approved a little bit earlier. As a result, it's a bit difficult to catch the newly approved post in time to edit a mistake, or 2, that was made in it (even though I tend to proof-read it 1 or 2 times before hitting the "post" button). Perhaps I have only my own scatter-brained mind to blame though...
At the same time, I'm very much in favor of questions to Mr. Meier being very difficult to edit, given how important they are, but, the board has a VERY strict feeling to it which doesn't seem very conducive to the exchange of information among like-minded people. Plus, It seems that you've long since accomplished removing "the riff-raff".
Again, I understand how important the mission is and all, how time consuming the whole process must be for you guys, and also how unimportant my personal opinions are in the grand scheme of things, but, at the same time, I feel quite intimidated every time that I hit the "post" button. (Almost as if the High Council itself is going to have to approve everything in it  .) |

Hi Mark,
It might be worth noting that the forum is a pre-programmed software that we are using, rather than being the designers of the code. So that means it is not a very flexible forum, unless you have the php code for what you want.
In my opinion the time zone doesn’t really matter, since I have joined the forum 4 years now, I never bothered even checking what time zone the forum is on. It makes no difference what time people post. Unless you want to spot who logs in when which is useless.
As for the search function you could always use the AND option which helped me a lot after discovering it.
Stopping the function of edit posts has a few advantages, most of all being that people take more care about what they post and if it’s correct, instead of editing the post hundreds of times even after the discussion was ended. Might as well make sure you post correct information, but for spelling and grammatical mistakes it’s not a problem.
A way to keep track on posts in the forum, is to activate the function of receive emails on your profile when posts are written you can always choose the topics you like, they can be a lot at times if you don’t login on a daily basis, you could even create an email account just for the posts, but it helps keeping up to date As a moderators we need to read most if not all posts that come through just to keep track on what’s going on, sometimes being harder than other times.
Well there needs to be rules to achieve order, and having everything open and with no rules is not a solution to this particular forum. Although it is a place for likeminded people, it seems like people need to be continually reminded that this forum is to discuss FIGU related things, rather than just a general chat about life. This stems mostly from people that either have no time, money or will to read the FIGU published material to be able to discuss it.
Everyones opinion is important, because we all have a say. Sometimes it can improve things other times it doesn’t. You will only find out when you share your opinion.

Dear Scott or Badr,
What happened to the passive member section of the forum? When I log on I don't see it anymore. Was it taken off?
Lonnie
Hi Lonnie,
A while back Christian was working on the Passive Member list and by accident some of the names were deleted. I would suggest writing to him and explain you are still an active Passive Member. The Passive Section has not gone away.

Dear moderators/Christian,
I have a suggestion for the "Questions to Billy" section: I don't know if this is feasible, but since the questions are given and answered in German, maybe the german translations of the questions and the original answers could be included? I think that many people would be interested in reading/translating the original answers to their questions, besides this could help to clear any eventual misunderstandings, as the translation often can't convey the exact same thing...
Regards
David

Dear Forum Members, Moderators and fellow humans.
My thoughts and suggestions only.
The recent upsets and struggles on this forum has truly turned this forum and also members into the wrong direction. Discussion which continue to spread on this forum like a virus continue to re-surface when FIGU, Billy and the Plejaren have given us more then enough information on such topics.
This is a discussion forum and everyone has a right to speak here. How ever such topics seem to be drudging the forum to a low, from my perspective.
Scott is right that this is a unique forum. For a start our personal information we give when we open an account is not shared with other companies or intelligence agencies and their snooping computers. Also there is nowhere else we can all get together and discuss the many aspects of the Meier materials and also get a chance to ask Billy himself a question once a month.
So we should respect this forum which is run by the moderators who do not get paid to do this work and read through all the posts.
In light of all this I would like to put fourth some suggestions. Which are not aimed at stopping anyone posting or even taking away anyones free will and right to post here.
1, In the forum rules, a rule could be created that subjects/post which blatant refer to, support conspiracy theories which are discussed as malicious and degenerative by Billy/FIGU/Plejaren will not be allowed.
2. Any member once warned about continuing to post on a topic or subject which the moderators have ask not to be posted about would then be banned from posting for a period of time.
3. Repeat offenders after the first ban period who continue to neglect the wishes of the moderators and other members will be banned permanently .
As I say this is only a suggestion and is ment as a fair way of trying to keep the forum "clean" and a nice place to visit and interact with others.
Nothing personal intended

Hi Stephen ;
In theory , it looks good , but items 1, 2,and 3 have already been breached many times . The moderators do this in their spare time . To read each post every time is too much to ask of them , so , the banning of certain offenders would be the logical option .

"To read each post every time is too much to ask of them"
But how can someone possibly moderate material of which they are unaware?
Similarly, Billy’s operative word in the expression "conspiracy theory" is "theory". Conspiracies admitted as fact by Billy such as 9/11, Apollo 11, etc. and his 21 assassination attempts are fair topics of discussion, not to mention BEAM's meaning of the word, “Lüge” (lie).

"But how can someone possibly moderate material of which they are unaware?"
It wasn't an assumption on my part , rather a real situation that was described to me by one of the moderators . They have busy lives , and have to trust the persons based on their general reputations . Is it perfect ? No , but welcome to earth , and , as usual , everyone does the best they can . Our moderators do a great job .
Another factor in this equation is that we all play a part in moderatorship when we direct messages to them , that way they know when there's a real problem . In this case , there were a lot of complaints .

I agree Mark.
I don't know if this is the correct terminology, but Billy once said that sometimes a problem can only be detected when its goes accute. And this is what appears to have happened here with all the alarm bells and complaints about Matthew's behaivour. |

Hi Matt...
Yes, it does become very Chronic!
Which can manifest 'way beyond' the individual's own self control, alas to
say.
I do have to admit: Matthew, does have a quite amount of information, relating
to Billy and the Mission, BUT, as Michael once noticed and commented, that
Matthew makes some sort of Cocktail..incorporating Billy's materials, into his
own analysis, or whatever One may call it.
Sometimes, he just does not know...when to take his foot off the gas pedal!
Would be best for Matthew to start his own Yahoo, or something, perhaps?
Than: he can (still) 'eat his heart out', as they say....

Dear friends,
I hope you can take the time to read this. It's pretty important. If not, just please read the little P.S.
It's about how this forum is structured.
"(They are all)... taught how to use intrigues to stir up discord and play one man against the other." p. 271, And Yet They Fly, (on the Bafath methodology)
Salome,
Dyson
P.S. "... the last impression stands out most prominently. The “last impression” is the most impressive. Our daily life teems with facts that illustrate this rule: The child is influenced by the last impression it receives. In a debate he, as a rule, gains the victory in the eyes of the public who has the last word. In a crowd he moves and stirs the citizens to action who makes the last inciting speech. In a mob he who last sets an example becomes the hero and the leader."
(Full excerpt, below)
From: http://gaiawingz.wordpress.com/on-suggestibility/
On Suggestibility
Taken from: ‘The Psychology of Suggestion – A Research into the Subconscious Nature of Man and Society’
by: Boris Sidis, M.A, PH. D. (Associate in psychology at the pathological institute of the New York state hospitals) with an introduction (1897) by Professor William James of Harvard University
first printed in 1898, then 1919 by D. Appleton & Company
reprinted by Kessinger Publishing in 2009
pg. 7
A huckster stations himself in the middle of the street, on some public square, or on a sidewalk, and begins to pour forth volumes of gibberish intended both as a compliment to the people and a praise of his ware. The curiosity of the passer-by is awakened. They stop. Soon our hero forms the centre of a crowd that stupidly gazes at the “wonderful” objects held out to its view for admiration. A few moments more, and the crowd begins to buy the things the huckster suggests as “grand, beautiful and cheap.”
A stump orator mounts a log or a car and begins to harangue the crowd. In the grossest way he praises the great intelligence, the brave spirit of the people, the virtue of the citizens, glibly telling his audience that with such genius as they possess they must clearly see that the prosperity of the country depends on the politics he favours, on the party whose valiant champion he now is. His argumentation is absurd, his motive is contemptible, and still, as a rule, he carries the body of the crowd, unless another stump orator interferes and turns the stream of sentiment in another direction. The speech of Antony in Julius Caesar is an excellent example of suggestion.
—
THE EVIDENCE OF NORMAL SUGGESTIBILITY
pg. 33
—————————————— Percent
Frequency and last impression…. 75.2
Last impression……………………… 63.3
Frequency…………………………….. 42.6
Coexistence and last impression… 18.3
Repetition……………………………… 17.6
Coexistence……………………………… 6.6
Comparing now the suggestibility effected by different factors*, that of the last impression stands out most prominently. The “last impression” is the most impressive. Our daily life teems with facts that illustrate this rule: The child is influenced by the last impression it receives. In a debate he, as a rule, gains the victory in the eyes of the public who has the last word. In a crowd he moves and stirs the citizens to action who makes the last inciting speech. In a mob he who last sets an example becomes the hero and the leader.
Frequency comes next to last impression and precedes repetition. This may be explained by the fact that in repetition the suggestion is too grossly obvious, lying almost on the surface; the mind, therefore, is aroused to opposition, and a counter-suggestion is formed; while in frequency the suggestion, on account of the interruption, is not so tangibly obvious, the opposition therefore is considerably less, and the suggestion is left to run its course.
Coexistence is a still poorer mode of suggestion than repetition; it only arouses opposition. Coexistence is in reality of the nature of repetition, for it is repetition in space; it is a poor form of repetition.
On the whole, we may say that in the normal state temporal or spatial repetition is the most unfortunate mode of suggestion, while the best, the most successful of all the particular factors, is that of the last impression – that is, the mode of bringing the idea intended for suggestion at the very end. This rule is observed by influential orators and widely read popular writers; it is known in rhetoric as bringing the composition to a climax. Of all the modes of suggestion, however, the most powerful, the most effective, and the most successful is a skilful combination of frequency and last impression. This rule is observed by Shakespeare in the speech of Antony. Be these rules of the particular factors what they may, one thing is clear and sure: these experiments unquestionably prove the reality of normal suggestibility; they prove the presence of suggestibility in the average normal individual.
——————–
* Let me add here that the figures bring out rather the relative than the absolute suggestiveness of the factors studied. |
