Hi Shawn
Thanks for your thoughts.
I was not referring to your post at all, and I agree with it in most part.
I would like to think that this issue is now dealt with to some degree, and that we all have learned something and should move on with the learning.

It can sometimes be awkward, being both a member and the moderator. Not too difficult though!

Hi Robyn.

Were you referring to my post then? :-)

To learn is what I am here for, so, if I've crossed any lines, please let me know.

------------

Carlos, in this instance, I think the matter is dealt with. I don't want to continue this line personally as I just don't think any more needs to be said.

Not every thought that people have about something needs to be shared on an open forum. However, we need to make sure that our posts do not lose their focus and fuel other issues.

Robyn

Dear Robyn. With the due respect.

Any feedback in that area I touched, that is, the concept of the core inner part of the brain, and the mechanics of thoughts, or how the brain processes the perceived circumstances, would be highly appreciated.

Even if the dialogue is moved to another forum section of course.

Carlos, I don't think rehashing this at this time is the best avenue.

I am not trying to hide anything from you about my thoughts on your post, it is just that I am not convinced it is good to continue in this line of conversation.

In these forum situations, there will often be people who don't see things the way others do, and will comment, where many will not. This really is an opportunity to re-examine our postings and see if we can find where they may be correct or not. However, it is not always necessary to spell everything out!

One thing I will say in general though, is that it is always possible to say something that is critical of someone's behaviour, without resorting to making judgements about that person.

Don't be too serious about this Carlos, as there is no need for you to be. So much has happened since those posts, the whole thing is beginning to fade away for me and life rolls on........

Write to me privately if you feel the need.

Robyn

Dear all.

This article just from April 2, 2010, seems to reconfirm my previously found theories:

http://www.physorg.com/news189425101.html

"Neuroscientists Show How Brain Stores Memories of Specific Fears"

"The research focused on the brain's amygdala, which has previously been shown to store fear memories. However, prior studies have indicated that the amygdala does not discriminate among the different threats it holds and processes. In other words, whether you are afraid of dogs because you were once bitten by a dog or you are afraid of pizza because you once nearly choked to death eating it, all the amygdala remembers is that both of these experiences were scary. By contrast, other brain areas, such as cortex, ensures that all other aspects of these fearful events in your life are remembered."

Interesting, isn't it?

HI Robyn.

Sure, I just read your reply AFTER I added some more good info to a very good topic about the storage of fearful memories in general.

I'm not holding any grudges at all. I've also moved on already. Please feel free to move the post to any area as you may see fit.

Thank you.

Dear Thomas (et al),

re: you 910th post over on the "Prophecies and Predictions" thread

This idea of being required to play games is one thing, if all we have to try to nail down your assertions about what you say Billy said, but something else again, if we also have to try to find the context of your requests for translations - contexts being absolutely vital for making accurate ones.

Posted on Friday, April 02, 2010 - 10:35 pm:

"I will give the context soon but I wanted first to see if anyone could accu= rately translate and second see if they could guess the book :-)=A0 I will = post the source soon though... Any ideas Dyson since you seem to be the exp= ert in German here?"

And you never DID provide anything other than your subsequent attempt, which - because I didn't have the time to play hide and seek and guessing games with you - I also never looked at, defeating your original idea that someone like me could check your work for you.

Real life is more than complicated and exciting enough for me. I certainly don't appreciate being required to play games by someone who is requesting my voluntary assistance.

Can you see that this is self-defeating behaviour? But it does provide a cogent lesson from which to learn.

Salome,
Dyson

Hi Thomas,

Obviously, as I told you more than once, I never DID find that reference about electrons you sought from me and I did also apologise for that too. Let's not be too hypocritical about my hypocrisy, OK? (Joke.)

But I'd still like to know where (book and page number) that translation exercise of yours came from, and also - how is your German coming along?

It must be difficult, being a native English-speaker, learning German in France. I started my German-learning while stationed in Belgium one summer. :-/

Thanks,
Dyson

A reminder folks!
Please when placing a link to something you think will be relevant to the Figu material and the understanding of it, please make sure that you provide a commentary about your thoughts on this link.

This is respectful to those who you are addressing, as it gives them the choice as to whether they will follow that link.

Also, before posting a link or starting up a discussion, make sure it is firstly assessed to be relevant once again, to the point of the forum which is the discussion of the Billy Meier/Figu material, and use some restraint even if one feels the pressing need to share ones thoughts.

Indiscriminate posting of links without providing the context/point of it to the discussion topic or offering an opinion of it, could be seen as evidence of lack of consideration, lack of due care about the point of this forum etc....

These guidelines, will make the forum a more focused and therefore useful and helpful place for ourselves, and future members.

Members;

This is meant for those who wish to use the special features of the forum. This is not to point fingers, but to reduce the likelihood of random characters being generated into posts by means of malformed enhancements. I have noticed that for at least a year that previous postings from a member is still going without correction.

If you see your previous posts are not being properly formatted then I suggest that you find the solution to this quickly, as to not post future messages that add unintentional cryptic letters. If there is any uncertainty of message formatting. Then, the best place for anyone to practice special characters or formatting is in the Testing Area of the forum. That way people like myself are not using additional processing to figure out what is being conveyed by the users post.

If the cryptic letters are of no fault by the member posting, then maybe there is an separate issue that maybe the admin or mods can look at.

Greetings to All Moderators,

I noted two of my recent posts did not get through.

Could there be a way we are advised that they were disapproved and why, so we will not commit the same mistake again in the future.

Hi Jun,

I only could find one post being rejected, thats because its a bit too much to ask people to join a social network just to see a video clip. And additionally you have written no description about the video clip.

http://forum.figu.org/cgi-bin/us/discus.cgi?pg=instructions#rules

Peace,
Badr

Hi Badr,

Now I understand. Just to make it clear, the prerequisite of joining the social network is a must otherwise you will not be able to see and hear the video as there is no other way to offer a link.

You are right, there was not enough illustration or insinuations on the contents except that this world is crazy and still is. Let me try again.

Thanks for your time and valuable effort.

Hello Moderators,
I notice that my last thread was not posted, did I make an error?
Please let me know what it was so I do not repeat the same again.

Peace,
Allen

Hi Allen,
I moved your post to a section better suited. It is at the following link:http://forum.figu.org/us/messages/12/1339.html?1272606099#POST49834

An observation.

On the German forum i believe there are 0 locked threads. Zero.

So are the members on that forum so well behaved and consistently on topic that no necessity exists to warrant the locking of threads ?

Lately it's become obvious various threads here have started to stray wildly off topic despite reminders from the moderators but this seems to occur as a result of ongoing discussions careering off at tangents till some moderator or other hits the panic button.

What the moderators might consider is that as they lock specific topics members options for the expression of ideas gradually diminish to such a degree that in desperation they find vaguely similar areas to post their information or continue discussions and this in itself is a cause for the spreading of off topic material.

Closing the Current World Events area seems exceedingly unwise due to the fact that so many things are happening right now and this is/was an ideal non specific place to post the latest news.

Even though there were differences of opinion regarding for instance the RAP in USA issue it's still highly valuable that this matter was raised and those interested obviously pursued their own lines of research.

To see so many locked threads .... it's hardly different to the tactics of religion & mainstream media ..... selective filtering of ideas & information via censorship.

What does this place represent ? I thought it was freedom.
Cheers.

Ramirez,

While I am not going to comment on the German Forum because I haven't reviewed it to the extent I know the English Forum. I can say there have been announcements/comments from the Moderators since 2002 about people posting with seemingly no relevance to the topics. There just does not seem to be any other way to control this. The English Forum has been restructured, topic headings re-written with the idea of keeping things on track, but inevitably the same issues persist.

We all know the world is changing and there are many, many websites devoted to keeping current information available to all that choose to read them. This does not mean (imo) that this website/forum is a place to discuss everything that comes over the air waves. How many people post links to youtube and other news sources just for the sake of posting, because it may interesting to that person? If each person were to post something, and then tied it into something which was written/stated by Billy or the Plejarens, that would be different, but that has not been the case. This is the FIGU Forum which is devoted to discussions/information coming from Billy and the Plejarens, nothing more, nothing less. Lets say you wanted to learn about sailing, would you read forum postings from other websites/forums devoted to saving sea otters?? This is not about censoring or restricting peoples freedoms but setting guidelines which help keep the focus of the topics clear. Not once in your post did you make reference to Billy or the Plejarens? Isn't that what this forum is about?

The other moderators and myself do not pretend to have all the answers on how to keep things working smoothly, there is no book that states this is how to do it, so things have to be worked out as we go along. If you have ideas which you think are workable and within reason, of course we will try to accommodate you as much as possible.

Regards
Scott

I am not a member of the German Forum, but sometimes I log in to look for particular answers through online translators and here are my impressions:

There is a basic difference between the German and English Forum - active participation by one or more of the members of CG49.

So, when an off topic matter is raised, somebody from CG49 declares it off-topic/moves to different thread and others comply no questions asked. Here in the English Forum, we have members from a wider cultural range here in the English Forum where reaction to rejection is much more varied and colourful than the German Forum. Plus, IMHO the moderators in the German Forum (who are mostly from CG49?) enjoy a respect which I see do not see at the same level here.

At other times, when any personal opinion is posted in the German forum without explicitely mentioning so, somebody from CG49 confirms or rubishes it once and for all either by virtue of them being well read into the German books or by having access to Billy. Here, it is more based on exchange of thoughts and debate which sometimes reach a conclusion, sometimes not.

In the German forum, mode of posting often turn out to be in Question and Answer (by CG49) mode whereas here it is much more forum members helping each other to reach a unitary level of cognizance (not necessary the most accurate) regarding the Meier material.

I liked the less number of, but more to the point postings of the German Forum, whereas the vibrancy of the English Forum is something which I adore.

IMO, it would be wrong to compare the two forums given the circumstances. Contrary to the evidence to large number of closed threads, I feel the English Forum has more freedom than the German one. The English Forum needs more freedom of expression than its German counterpart to thrive, which it is currently doing. But unlimited freedom of expression can spawn a kind of freedom that may sometime tread upon the freedom of others (to read post related to Meier material), and thus be self-indulgent in nature. So closing of threads or merging/spliting of threads might be essential.

I agree with you Ramirez, at least regarding the Current Earth Events thread that closing it would deny many important updates as-it-happens (trends/events happening around the world which might have an impact on the mission and/or related to the Meier material) and would join you to urge the moderators to reconsider its demise. We may have been veering off-topic in that thread, but what about a trial period in which its content is monitored for being not having any relation to the ongoing direction/effect of the mission and Meier material?
Salome.
