to quote morrison, this is the end...I capitulate...I choose option 3...I have realized I am as much of the problem as anyone here so I am just going to remove myself from the fray...I've made it too easy for everyone: being your daddy, your scapegoat, your target, your analyst....you are all supposedly adults and I have given you all the guidance I can muster at this time...you should all know by now what trolling and baiting are...perhaps at some point I will be back, perhaps not...so you will have to moderate yourselves...I won't be around to clean up your messes...if you screw up your password you will have to take on a new nickname...the search indexes will not be updated any longer...I think the hosting is paid up at least through the end of the year, perhaps longer, I don't remember...thanks to Will (you're way quicker than me dude), and JOB and all of you who frequent these boards for your caring and sharing...you know I love you all...try to be nice to one another...
bopp out
ps: when you "die" and face your maker, think about what you have to show it...what essential part of your existence and being will you bring forth with pride and excitement and say, look, this is what I have for you...this is what I used my life for...

I am puzzled why the problem keeps getting deflected to
mr bopp as if he were the bad parent. This is about
respect for ourselves and each other and for the website
goal of sharing perspectives in a civil manner, not
about him. We're supposed to be monitoring ourselves so
the posts don't get so far out of hand that he has to
step in just to keep the whole site from capsizing. I'm
sure he is no happier about this than anyone else. If I
were him and had spent so much of my life creating
something to serve the common good, and then had to
destroy it to prevent if from being misused, I would
feel horrible.

I hope that this decision is reflective of Mercury and Neptune in retrograde (people often reverse decisions once the planet is again in direct motion.)
This is a wonderful collective forum you've created here and just like any other aspect of life, there will be rocky times so that each of us is "served up" the lessons needed to be addressed as catalyzed by the interactions.

I'm really going to miss you and I've learned so much from this great
forum. I've met some of the smartest people in the world and more
important some of the most compassionate.
We started out on a rocky beginning but eventually I learned that you
always fair and sincere.
I can't remember the name of that board that was on Syzygy that I
believe was the genesis of this site. Some of us came from there.
Anyway I sent you an email a whle back and I don't know if you ever
got it because you didn't respond. It's not important anyway.

Will Fletcher started Hot Sheets.
My mind is a little foggy about it all so I might have my dates skewed. I believe I was first online in 1997 and found a board hosted by Mitch Battros, he might have linked up with JOB shortly after. I rarely posted and when I did I used a male name, LOL. Most posters from there went to JOB's Site Synzergy and a few of us deflected the Kevin Peacock's for a short while and reunited with the Hot Sheets....Bopp gathered us from there however there was the loss of some major personalities.
I don't even view other message boards--limited time and I prefer this simple format.

Yeah, that pretty much sums up how this site came about.
I never posted on Hot Sheets but was a long time observer ( lurker -;)
I remember the toll it took on Will to keep the flaming etc. down.
One of the brightest ones there was Viz. He actually made an
appearance here on the Science Board a while back.
I too like this open format. It seems that the two things that you
should never bring up at a party, politics and religion, are the main
sources of problems and antagonism.
The reason being is there is no objective reality concerning those
subjects. Like two beasts in the wild each attempting dominance.
Combat ensues when rational communication breaks down and we
revert back to animal instincts.
This type of behavior comes from fear.

permanently.
By now, we have all figured out that there are a small handful of posters that either:
1. need a constant "fan club" - and will do or post anything to make themselves the center of attention.
2. are obvious "bully" personalities - who have preyed on multiple posters, getting their "kicks" by attempting to intimidate multiple individuals from posting through their harassment
3. use this board to try to prove to others (and themselves) over and over again how politically correct and hip and modern they are by acting indignant at every little violation of political correctness
4. think that the more comments you post with ridiculous pictures but no refutation, the more names you call - the more you are winning the battle against someone who posted with actual facts and research
5. think THEIR point of view ought to be the only one posted, and are abusive to anyone who posts something in conflict with their own point of view.
Bopp, this small handful of individuals cause the problems on this board. They aren't going to stop. They never had any intention of stopping. They don't respect YOU or anyone else. They just demand the right to do whatever they want to do - no matter how outrageous. YOU can't "MAKE" them stop pulling buggers out of their noses and smearing them on the walls of this board - because they believe that is their God-given "right" that they feel they are entitled to.
These individuals should be permanently banned. They are arrogant beyond all belief. When you closed these boards a couple weeks ago, they found every conceivable way to get around your closing of the boards and still continue their methods of operating.
Instead, all the rest of us bear the consequences of these "nose-pickers".

… rather than better more effective ways!
Banishments does not resolve the issues nor deal with the behaviors!
What each and all better figure out be better ways to deal with disruptors and antisocial
individuals to guide them towards playing fair and being nice.
BTW what manifests in these forums also manifests in real world and in some cases in
rather dramatic ways… we better find working solution for here and for the real world!
The thing is that it involves the uncontrolled controlling themselves … rather than
cultivating their natural inclinations of uncontrolled… In a way the conversation ought
to shift from what individuals desire to be to what individuals ought to desire to be…
thing is that some already desire to be what ought to be desired to be and the others
insists on refusing to embrace what ought to be desired based on the grounds that if
some get what they desire why can't they also get what 'they' desire… Of course the
answer involves the notion that 'some already desire to be what ought to be desired to
be' and others 'desire to be what ought NOT be desired to be'. The issue of: 'who
determines what ought to be (and what ought NOT be desires" is part of the 'distracting'
schemata that shifts the interchange from 'what ought to be' into 'what individuals think
ought to be'…
Bluntly put why if ---you all have figured out that there are a small handful of
disruptors--- is it that you all have played along with and in the disruptors tactics,
rather than asserted better ways? BTW 'some' may consider me a disruptor… a disruptor
of disruptors … that seeking to establish the better ways… Of course let's beware of the
'distracting' schemata that seeks to shifts the interchange from : what be to what some
think to be… in the subtle form of shifting from 1- "that seeking to establish the better
ways…" to 2- "you seek to establish your better ways". Let's focus on establishing the
better ways by cultivating the better ways!.

I'm sad that you chose to be nasty to Cinnamon who is probably...
ok, in my opinion, one of the nicest posters here.
I do want to give you my thanks when you helped me out long ago when
creepy things were happening at my oldest son's house. I don' know if
you remember but his old girlfriend had went onto a very dark path.
You advised that he needed to send her clothes and possessions to her
when she went back to the easy coast. He did not. Several months later a
fire started in the apt. below me and I lost everything. At a red cross
provided motel room he actually came up and attempted to give me some
of her clothes. Of course I did no accept them and he has not talked to me
since. Oh well.

Blame Action Loops
It is not uncommon for people who engage in blaming behavior to also engage in selfish behavior. And as long as they are getting benefit from it -- whether monetary, emotional, comfort, entertainment or psychological stability -- they will continue to engage in those actions. But realize that most of the time the person is too busy doing the behavior to see their actions in this context. Look at the diagram below:
This loop takes on a different form in the blamer's reality. This is partly because 'evaluation' is run through a couple of other filters. As long as everything works out for the blamer, these filters won't necessarily reveal themselves. For example, both a blamer and a normal person choosing not to try to cross against the light will be working in basically the same model as above. However, when the action don't work out as planned (1), the simple action loop becomes more complex.
This is what could be said to be happening inside the blamer's mind (2) when his/her behavior does NOT produce the desired results. When negative consequences result, it is always someone or something else's fault. This creates a one way flow that serves the purpose to 1) protect the blamer's core beliefs, 2) meet the blamer's desires or 3) in accordance to his/her emotional state at the time. Realize these three elements form a complex -- and self-reinforcing -- cocktail. A cocktail that is beyond the ability of the authors to explain, except to say that it both a powerful motivational force for the blamer as well as something that he/she is dedicated to protecting at all costs. It is the continuation and protection of these 'filters' that leads to the rest of the process. Let's look at this process staying with the street corner analogy. Upon arriving at the red right (and despite the cross traffic), the person decides to cross any way. This is a selfish decision (while there might be a legitimate reason to cross, most jaywalking really is based in impatience -- which could be any mix of the cocktail). The results of this action is the person is struck by an oncoming car.
This is where the blame process kicks in, instead of taking responsibility for his/her action that had unintended consequences, the blamer begins to find reasons why he/she should be excused from the repercussions. Repercussions that the blamer doesn't believe he/she 'deserved.' (Being judgmental of both self and others is common among blamers). Obviously the blamer will blame the driver ... let's say for speeding, e.g. If he hadn't been speeding he could have avoided hitting the blamer. Another way the blamer commonly will try to avoid taking responsibility for unpleasant results is by telling him/herself something along the lines of "If my boss wasn't such a nagger about being back from lunch on time I wouldn't have had to try to cross the street." Somehow magically it becomes the bosses fault that the blamer got hit by a car.
But here is where things get squishy, although avoiding external repercussions would appear to be the motive (e.g. trying to blame the driver for insurance purposes), the main goal of blaming others is to protect not just one's own emotions or ego, but apparently one's philosophy. And that is where this behavior becomes both self-reinforcing and self-perpetuating.

I like your explanation of scripture. IMO, you have
the best understanding of the bible on the bible board.
My perspective is a little more conservative than
yours, but not nearly as humanitarian.
The modern christian songs don’t seem to have the same
worshipful quality of the older gospel songs.
I’m not bored and lonely, because I’ve been through the
school of hard knocks and I’m not out of the woods yet.
Just having christian faith has helped me “through it
all” (to borrow from the title of the christian song by
Andrae Crouch).

You appear to thrive on playing these sorts of games to harass and manipulate several posters on these boards. It works with some. Whatever, it is a free country... But I also have the right not to "play" your games.
If you chose to not comprehend that some of us limit our times typing on boards because we have other more important things to attend to, that is YOUR problem.
It only becomes "my" problem, if I chose to "make" it my problem. And I don't so choose.
I can't really be angry with you. I more feel sorry for you. I'm sure there is something in your past that has made you a bully. In my experience, bullies are very lonely people due to the way they treat others. I pray for you.
But I simply don't care what you think. So...think whatever you want about the way I spend my time.
Free country... I just don't give much of a hoot what someone thousands of miles away thinks. People can think what they want, more or less. I go on with my business.
Shrug...beats me...
Good night. Full moon coming in. Crazy last couple hours at work. I'm mentally "spent".

hubby said folks were really weird at work yesterday, very grumpy, inpatient, etc. I tried to tell him that he's probably learning the lessons that God would love for him to learn, patience, kindness and forebearance too. I think that your kindness toward others will get you through the day/s and want to wish you a happy Friday the 13th/full moon/ high solar stuff, etc.!
This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it!!!!! :)
If this bd does shut down and I certainly congratulate Ryan for at least taking a break from all the infighting here, we do have a little group on facebook and there's also the other message board called "boppin along" that is still up (at the link) and we all have to register which prevents a lot of the problems we see here.
Hugs, Sheila
PS: Don't you love this rain? :)

Anybody can join Friends of Earthboppin on facebook. But if it gets nasty or off track, I can always "unfriend" the member.
We don't get much traffic there, but it is a back-up plan for "if earthboppin" gets taken down.
Boppin Along is a nice alternative also. After Earthboppin went down a while back, we wanted to make sure we had alternatives to fall back on to re-gather our masses.
Neither of these take the place of earthboppin, and we will continue to be part of this group.

Trish, I am like you...I don't do facebook or twitter, nothing and I still
wonder about the internet and proceed with caution. I only post one
place and it's okay if it goes as I don't have to. Wonder about all of this
network cyber thing experiment...I know I am in it, but oh well.
The place boppin along is not apart of facebook, one has to sign in
though I think. I have skimmed it a few times, but never have registered.
That might be a good alternative. That was shared with me before, so
hope I got that proper.

Re: remove 'the problem' will NOT resolve 'the problem' better to…
...appropriately deal with the situation in a more effective manner and learn once and for all what to do when
such matter 'flare-up'… Used to be that one could capitulate, gather some stuff and relocate… though now
it's time to determine and stand for one's ground… appropriately deal with the situation once and for all…
while establishing the guidelines one will embrace and cultivate.
Indeed each will have to moderate themselves… and/or clean up their messes… by choice or by force… of
course sometimes the best and only solution to a problem involves preventing it! In other words better and
simpler to take care of the plant and keep it alive than having to figure out how to revive it and doing what it
takes to revive it!
I was thinking about your 'ps' statements and wondered why is it that individuals wait till they 'die' to face
their maker especially when they could face Him throughout their lives! Kind of humorous for the creation to
consider that they can bring forth something of their own… in the last instant rather than thought their
existence… as if the ends justify the means… remember its a bit more than the ends or the means it's a
combination of them in a particular form…
perhaps at some point you will be back, perhaps at that time I will still be here and perhaps we will chat
again here and/or elsewhere…
Be well and do well and decide well

Well, in my book...I think your the nicest webmaster
I've ever ran across...the only one I ever knew that
was more for the person.... then the all mighty dollar.
I remember leaving my 10 year old job as an supervisor
and how most of us there, as supervisors..had taken
nursing from trash to treasure.. in the care of the patients...but I also know...sometimes you gotta have
time for yourself also. I also realized that the so called "experts" that had come.. in were such scumb bag crap Ryan...God forbid...they ever get the say so over the health of others. Their projected idea to keep the patients happy without ever spending an dime on them, was to hypnotism them to "happiness"...to live in an fake world.. of not questioning their motives and agenda's...just take the money and give an lame story "we did everything we could"...while the patient died. Our country is much in the same condition from the last previous years...our struggling is apparent if your an low wage earner.
I wish you all the best...I will miss earthboppin also. It is much like an close knit family...totally
imperfect. In an world of everyone expecting everyone
else to be perfect...we hardly know what that really is. I feel lost in ways as to getting information by
others when the site is lost. Anyone I disagree with right now, if I take the opportunity to say your wrong, your lucky...most the time I simply pass over them, as you can't change an snake into something it's
not...I've accepted that. I am really feeling sick to my stomach right now...that's when the biggies come in
(quakes) and I'm up checking things out when I came across this message to come to this board. Enough said, hope someday we talk again.

Bummer. Sorry to see you go, and I wish you all the best.
Most of all, I will miss your witty remarks.
I sense that you need a break. I hope that after some time off, that you will reconsider and come back.
I also hope that earthboppin can somehow continue, with or without you.
My observations:
Trying to maintain the peace on these boards must feel like babysitting a bunch of kinder gardeners. I don't
know how or why you had the energy to do it.
I also think you have been trying way too hard lately. I sense that a lot of what is said on these boards is
not what it seems. This medium is missing the non-verbal clues that we have in face to face conversation.
Some are better at expressing tone through the written word than others. What may appear as anger may not be
at all. When someone's words leave the impression that they are upset, it is hard to tell if they are deeply
upset, mildly annoyed, or just screwing with someone.
I think that if we all met face to face, that most of us would get along well (better than we do on these
boards).
I am not suggesting a face to face meeting, just trying to illustrate my point.
Take care. Live long and prosper.
ShakyD (long time lurker, occasional poster).

I've tried to keep quiet because for a long time I've no longer had the

Having stated that, it appeared to me that you at least made an attempt
to offer an alternative point of view. Tonight your post about Esk on
stoning people...seeing T's response only confirmed that he has no
conscience when it comes to the negative part he has played on this site.
Dan has also tried to communicate a rational viewpoint which I
appreciated. As well as other nice people.

Of course BJ calls them useless eaters.

I did not read those exchanges. I do know that those two seemed to enjoy
upsetting some posters. I figured out a long time ago that it was best to
not take things personally and sometimes it was hard to do.
I understand why that would make you upset.
Although a determined quest with people who like to get your goat
probably wouldn't have a positive result.
All the best to you and your family.

Why do you insist in posting inflammatory crap when you have no idea about about my meaning of useless eaters?
Bopp spanked you and you still don't "get it."
For the record my meaning of useless eaters has NOTHING to do with the elderly.
I don't know the etiology of your cognitive disconnect.
