Lisa you are the biggest whinger on this board and the one who bothers the moderators & FD more than anyone else.

A few people have suggested now that you leave if you don't like it here - rather than disrupt this board with your constant complaints and abuse. I think it would be best if you did leave. You are obviously very unhappy here, not only with FD's administration, but you don't like many of the members either.

This forum isn't just about catering to your demands. Most of the members here make an effort to get along and compromise - but not you.

How about you get your finger out and MANAGE/MOD your forum esp in regards to these disturbed multi flamers/clones/trolls. That would be even better.


FD???

Perhaps now you can see why we DO need that ignore facility on here.

However, given the absence of this facilty on this forum I expect you to at least respect and enforce YOUR forum RULES.

Here they are ( just to refresh your memory ).

You do realise you quoted your own post as an example of why we need the 'ignore' facility, right? Well done.

FD??? Care to read back over the past few pages of this topic alone? You will see exactly how and why ignoring disturbed and bored stalkers doesn't work at all.

If anything .. it only makes them worse!


Oh and I found this interesting (as well as relevant) to the last 2 pages of this topic FD.


Forum Rules

Personal criticism

Do not post personal criticism of other members. Do not respond to personal criticism of yourself or other members. This is the biggest problem on OzPolitic. Too many members are easily baited into off-topic personal exchanges. If you participate in any kind of flame war you will be suspended, regardless of who started it or who you think ‘deserved it’
.


I trust that these rules .. YOUR rules will be upheld.

..........................................................................

Go on cods! we're almost blood sisters, me being from good convict stock and all. We are much nicer than the 'others'  Smiley




ha,.ha.. give me the convicts of yesteryear to the pious greenies of today any time..at least everyone knew they were crooks.. now we are lead to believe the greens can change the world....as long as everyone does what they tell them to do.. and not what they do...

I dont live by those morals.

your convict rellies are spinning in their graves pansi..shame on you!


I always felt you would make a good Anarchist Cods.





anarchist [ˈænəkɪst]
n
1. (Government, Politics & Diplomacy) a person who advocates the abolition of government and a social system based on voluntary cooperation
2. a person who causes disorder or upheaval
anarchistic  adj



I dont think so....why would you accuse me of that????

I am very much for law and order.. infact I just wish we had more of it.. we have slacked off to the point now where crims are thumbing their noses at society.. look at Sydney drive by shootings every mnight and no one is stopping them..

I am shocked you would put me in that catagory..thanks for nothing.



would I make a good protester.. yes I would if I believed in it badly enough..like I am anti CARBON TAX and if the body had allowed it I would have been there..

we are fortunate to be able to raise a voice in protest in this country still, but who knows whats ahead..


we are making a start with censorship of the internet..and now pointing the evil finger at the press/media..as if they are the cause of our every ills....

we are basically saying to every new govt... if you dont like it.. have an enquiry and put yourself in control...

its for everyones own good dont you know!


There you go Cods, you can see very well that things aren't working. This is the premise that Michael Crichton wrote about in Jurassic Park. The more you try to control complex systems, the more chaos you create, (chaos theory). Now some things are best handled at a Federal level. And so some form of centralised administration is necessary. But most things are better handled locally.

Let's take child welfare for instance. Why do we send money to the federal government who decide how much will be spent on the welfare of children. Then hand that over to a bureacracy who use the money to shore up their own empire, run advertising camapaigns, monumental leaflet drops to explain the latest buzz phrase in child welfare. And finally dribble down what's left to the the local community?  Our town is going to be a city in the new year yet there is no child welfare office. It's all handled from Bunbury the next city up the coast.

And on a local level people don't talk about child welfare. Its the responsibility of 'government'. Older heads like yours that might know a thing or two are out of the loop. When men get drunk and bash their wives and children other men don't (as a general rule) do anything. To do so would in all probability get them in trouble with the police.

This is all an unnatural and inefficient way to live. Anarchism is simply about decentralisation of power and making collaborating individuals more important than totalitarian governments. And it always was. Cods.

Anarchists were opposed to Bolshevists. They didn't believe in revolutions and forcing people against their will to adopt to centralised power. Just take the time to read this short letter to Karl Marx from Joseph Proudhon, the first person to call himself an Anarchist.

http://dwardmac.pitzer.edu/anarchist_archives/proudhon/letters/proudhontomarx.ht...

Or you might prefer the AnarchoConservative P.J. O'Rourke Smiley

mantra you and I had a similar problem not that long ago.. we sorted it out on PM..maybe you and lisa could try the same.. I dont see Lisa like you do...I dont come on here much but she always seems pretty stable to me..I mean as long as someone isnt whingeing about you or too you what does it matter?.

.I am sure the mods can look after themselves.. at least I hope so and I am sure FD doesnt need us to defend him..strewth, I have enough to do defending myself..

I think it would be a lost cause trying to make peace with Lisa. Perhaps if she laid off the name calling it might help. I find it very offensive to be called a multi troll/flamer/clone, Mad Mantra etc. continually. I understand these references are often made because of the restrictions of her limited vocabulary but that's no excuse.

Sorry Cods but I've seen her put down to many people in the past year. If she's not correcting their punctuation, grammar or demeaning them - she's name calling. She can't even stop at that and has to copy the same highlighted post over and over again ad nauseum - then bump it another dozen times for good measure.

I'll just collect her abusive posts from now on and send them with links to all the mods. Perhaps someone will have the guts to stand up to her.

So Grey
How about giving us a few pithy quotes -  from Anarchists,  in their own words???

Maybe I HAVE heard them before. !! But you'd need to flesh-out your comment.

Yeah?  some classic anarchist rules.. policies , .. givens.... acceptance.of ideals..??

I'd be really interested to expand on my knowledge. !!

But -  NOT paragraphs and paragraphs,  ... ahh  and no links either.
Just....  those meaningful words!!!  - in  bite-sized chunks.
So WE CAN ALL GET IT.

Yes pls!!  Smiley

If you- any of you -want to pose as a woman on this forum- I think for honesty's sake, ...u should still use your profile to indicate your gender.
Why is that? U axe?

Privacy and all .. doesn't require it,  but ....

..if you want to carry on an honest and potentially helpful discussion about 'whatever'  I THINK it is important that we have the most basic understanding of whom we are talking to.  And that is most certainly not race, creed or colour, but GENDER.

I don't expect you neuters out there to comply, ...it WOULD BE GOOD tho. Smiley
Up to you.  Hiding your gender, as you clearly apprehend, does provide you with some (?) protection?  but from what I remain unsure - it remains in your mind.

Pansi !!  
re beautiful singing soulful activists?!!!

Hardest worker/ most influential - at the interface ..... is Michael Franti.  !!!!!!
and Spearhead.  Perhaps I'm yrs out of date?  But ...?

Don't know if they still put it all together,  ... hope so... because I don't know of any other relatively mainstream musician who has such an impact.  

OF course... those who don't want to hear, never will.!!

Out of curiosity Jalene - why is the gender of a member so important? Some are happy to disclose it, others aren't. That's their prerogative.

[/i]-  Mantra

Indeed, it is everyone's prerogative.
I think knowing the gender of your peers in , shall we say provocative , discussions ... is important in helping one to 'understand' that person, and their position.

I dislike and disapprove of 'language' 'words' which are gender - specific. Like - say - Fisherman. Should be Fisher.
I mean in the human psyche, this split between sexes is almost impossible to overcome, and it is a problem.

Not just for women .. but for society. Perceptions /Beliefs/Fears ... men have about women, and vice versa, might actually lose some of it's potency, if people were honest.  And society would benefit.
Thats all I mean.  By not disclosing your gender, you are holding back from honesty.

Of course, there could be many reasons for this.!!!

But as person I prefer face to face -  and on the net, like here, you don't know who you are talking to.

And it concerns me.  Of course, everyone can lie on this forum, with impunity. And do,  Smiley
