How old is everybody here anyway?

LaLa, Cap AC, yes indeed. Are Cap AC's flakey? I rather like being me, and since this Libra with Mars in Aquarius has been quietly considered flakey by most people on the planet, I'm used to it and consider it a compliment. They think that about all the genius types.

Now, everyone please stop fighting, it is way too interesting, and I really would rather get back to vegging out on my Spring Break chick flicks.

I've never seen so many self-rightous holier-than-thous in one place at one given block of time (aside from Christian discussion boards) than those on this string today. It's clear that you few think that "your poop don't stink." God/dess forbid anyone should make a mistake or error of judgment here--lest you yell OFF WITH HER HEAD. I know I've made plenty. I'm human. So, did Linda. She often acted hastily out of anger. Like the time she broke the porcelain doll out of anger and then tried so hard to glue the tiny pieces back together again (with tears of regret in her eyes as she apologized between her sobs). This is an Astrology forum, but this is NOT an Astrology site. This is a Linda site. Anyone who is unhappy being here, then by all means depart. Don't drag the rest of us down with your negativity. Because despite petty squabbles, this place rocks. It rocks like no other place on the Net, because it's alive with the energy of those who come here to honor Linda. I made that promise 7 years ago--to honor her and always do what I feel is right. It hasn't made me popular at times that people are given so many chances, but Linda was all about forgiveness. To put it quite bluntly, those who cannot come to terms with another's frailties probably are blind to their own, and truthfully, they probably do not belong here. Search your Heart..and stay to help make this a better place, or go...but be so kind as to not throw the furniture or break the dishes as you leave. There are many of us who prefer a clean house.

Now, be fair. I didn't have a word to say on this thread until 3/4 of the way down the second page.

I said this "site" is devoted to Linda Goodman...this is the "astrology forum".

As for the other threads, I had nothing to say on one and only commented on the other when acoustic decided to play the martyr, start a new thread and show everyone his oowie. By that time, acoustic, though gravely wounded, had mounted his prancing rocking horse and was trying to lead an insurgency. Imagine that, someone had disagreed with him; a no-no in acousticland.

There seems to be an opinion here that all aspect interpretations are equally valid. I disagree. Down that road lies destruction of the utility of astrology as a tool. Beyond that, the destruction of the validity of astrology itself. There are already enough astrology skeptics in the world. Why create more?

There are a confusing array of aspect interpretations on the Net. Many contradictory and many ignoring the basic functions of the planets and what they represent in a chart; not to mention the conflicting opinions on the energy thrown off by different aspects. Far too many want to put their own stamp on astrology and work to that end.

Problem is when the same cr@p keeps reoccurring over and over again some people think talking cute will solve this ever reoccurring problem...when all it really does is sweep the root of the issue under the rug.

For some it may work. For others it probably does not.

It all boils down to RESPECT.

If it's OK to all out disrespect other people then expect that to become the new common courtesy here.

Yeah, it was while Randall wasn't telling anyone why this forum had completely disappeared off the face of the internet. It was a temporary site, so people could still gather to do what they do.

Dear Randall....I realize this may not be the most appropriate time to bring this up, as I know this seems to be a sore subject, but I thought I would just add my 2 cents, please know that when you brought up the KS thing a week or so ago, I had no idea what you were referring to, but it recently clicked (sometimes it takes me awhile, lol) Anyways, "my" take on the formation of KS was merely a quik substitute, when there was no LL, people started panicking so to speak, noone seemed to know what was going on..........when AG duplicated this site as a temporary "fix" for us addicts, I for one was grateful and would have assumed you would have been too. Not for one moment did I think he was being sneaky or disrespectful to you, in fact if I remember correctly it was the total opposite. I was a little taken back when you confronted the subject later on, I honestly had no idea that you would have taken it that way and been insulted. To me, it was merely a gathering place, a place to gather funds to send to you go get LL up and running, you had mentioned more than a few times that this places costs to maintain and encouraged any and all who would like to donate, to please do so.

Noreenz, I'm not talking about the duplicate temporary site. AG had another site on the side where Knowflakes were insulted...including one person who told in detail how he would rape Pid. It went on for some time until they were discovered, and then Forums went down like President Clinton shredding documents over WhiteWater. It was appropriately named "Kindred Spirits."

AG, go get your girl and make some love. Me... well, at least I have Family Video and LindaLand...

Hey Jwhop, quit using the word "frigid" around us Earth vibe girls, what are ya tryin' to do, give us a complex or somethin'?

Hey Randall... are you single? Just kidding... (mostly!)

It is soooo obvious that there are people here who just like to stir up trouble and then want it to go on and on and on and on and on.

Everyone has an opinion and is entitled to voice there opinion if they are not being personal and disrespectful to other people and everyone's opinions should be respected even if they arent agreed with.

Come on guys get over it and move on.

Jwhop have a question for you based on your post....

<<There seems to be an opinion here that all aspect interpretations are equally valid. I disagree. Down that road lies destruction of the utility of astrology as a tool.

Far too many want to put their own stamp on astrology and work to that end.>>

Who decides what is or is NOT a valid interpretation?

As far as the rest of this thing goes, I very much want my free speech protected and respected. Therefore, I hope that we have the assurence of Lalalinda that she won't do this again to anyone else?
Passionate debate can be very stimulating....It can also bring many different viewpoints out.....Sometimes we have to agree to disagree and move forward....Deleting or editing posts is not ethical behaviour and only serves to limit/sidetrack discussion....(of course, I am referring to reasonable discussion, anyone who is abusive/defamatory should be dealt with)

The end of my 2 cents worth....

Hugs all

Kindred Spirits may have copied a couple forums, but it wasn't a total copy. There were a number of forums here that we never had there, and we added more artistic forums.

Magus' regrettable comment was directed at TINK not Pid.

You're absolutely right
I regret my actions and apologise to everyone including acoustic but most especially to you Randall.
Thank you for your vote of confidence

Lala appologized, I think she should be given another chance to be fair. I mean we all make mistakes. What kind of "family" would we be if we throw out one of our own for a mistake. We chastised her and I think thats fair enough.

I agree with Black Rabbit why is this thread still going? Its so counter productive. Lala appologized, she said she is sorry, she made a mistake...what else do you guys want? Why do we continuously need someone to tar and feather???

Mystic Melody - ur a Cap moon? May i ask what your sun/asc are? My Cap moon boyfriend usually says things in a similar fashion and I totally adore it. People need to stop hating the cute stuff.

This isn't about AG and lala anymore, Ag is a gentleman and he won't attack her.

Serious question for AG: Lala said she is very sorry for deleting your post and she did act in passion. Are you personally willing to forgive her?

Either way I do not see why other people need to bring up THEIR own conflicts into this issue. Chill out and breathe...This is rediculous. I come to this site for good energy because it actually helps me out. I am allll for free specch 100% but i am also all for forgiving. Come on guys seriously, lets go back to our old helpful selves. This is astrology. Such fights should be limited to GU lol.

acoustic, there are going to be trust issues untill you right the wrong you did with your website.
Have you even bothered to own up to it?
or are we in denial?

I also strongly object to the way you speak to Randall.
You owe him a great deal and a little aknowledgement and respect would be a good start.

(and quit stealing all of his ideas, not cool at all)

posted March 12, 2007 09:26 PM            

I went through a few weeks of taking responsibility for that site. I'm over it.

I don't care if you strongly object to how I speak to Randall. Randall speaks in a rather severe manner himself. I'm sure he can take it.

posted March 12, 2007 09:49 PM              

Randall can you please let Lotus back in, she thinks I am you and we both know this is not true.

Please give her another chance, Its not the same without her.

When AG did start that site, I think we all panicked. I am not taking up for anyone, but i joined it too, thinking that LL would be back up and I did find out for my own why it went down. I dont know about the Kindred SOuls site and such, I just know that we need to restructure things and soon.

We need to get on with the day and do our thing, that of what we are good at.

We are those that represent Linda.
I am really tire but I know that the fight will go on and there are better things to fight than this.

And I was recently tellin' one of my knowflake buddies I thought it was getting a bit monotonous in here...see what I get for thinkin'? Gotta love the Universe's way of shakin' things up - very cathartic.
