It really isn't a good option though. Honestly it'd be more worth sticking it out here or going somewhere else that respectable.

Can't believe I'm seeing the day where that's actually a legitimate option.


That is because you are still very ignorant about the jedi community as a whole. Step away from totjo for a bit and see what the rest of the community is about.


And you are still very quick to make assumptions ;)


OB1, I'm looking into where to order my Hannigan shirt as we speak...


Did you want to order a Jedi Realist Radio shirt? Just let me know what colors. I normally charge $20 per shirt but for you I will only charge $35 and I will sign it. Let me know when you need my paypal. Order now before the release of the American Jedi Documentary because after then the prices will most likely go up.

You never fail to deliver Hannigan!

You know what, I will very seriously consider a signed T shirt. If for no other reason than the fact that I seriously admire your tenacity.


For a extra $50 I will wear it for one of my strength training routines and a 8 by 10 picture also signed. I will toss in a picture for Clint as well.

But all jokes aside after 20 years I am more then happy with what i have done for the community as well as within the community. If you ever want to share what you have brought to the community outside of TOTJO on my podcast I would love to have you on it.

Erm. I think I'll pass on the shirt.

Maybe I'll go on your podcast if you bribe me with a signed picture ;)



Walking, stumbling on these shadowfeet

Part of the seduction of most religions is the idea that if you just say the right things and believe really hard, your salvation will be at hand.

With Jediism. No one is coming to save you. You have to get off your ass and do it yourself - Me

Sven: I'm not in the middle of this as you suggest. In fact, I'm one of the people that members are talking to because they are hurt. I am advocating for them, you're just telling them to "Jedi Up."

Perhaps you should do what I did, and take a class on Crisis Intervention, Sven. Every time I see people giving that "Jedi Up" pep-speech, I think back to my training where scientific studies showed it actually hurts people to give that kind of advice more than it helps.

The scientific study in question was a scientist going home to his wife who had a bad day at work (maybe she was also a scientist and was sandy because he got the grant or something)

She was crashing around the house, yelling at the TV, throwing cushions around, splashing soda everywhere.

He said "Honey, be rational! Calm Down!"

and she threw the remote as his head.

He went into work the next day with 3 stitches, and firm results of his research "Telling people in distress to just "Be Better" is rubbish, and only serves to aggravate them more, 100% of the time"

Alethea: Your advocating? Okay, if you say so. You think I am not hurt? My Master was one that was banned, how do you think that made me feel? I could of quit TOTJO based of that but, I didn't. If you remember Alethea I was one who posted the original rant about issues in the temple about a month ago. Funny, nobody seemed to care about me and I ended up apologizing because so many where offended at my responses where were you? Just saying.

James, thank you I know I probably better just shut up shouldn't I? lol :)

How do you think that makes me feel?


You're not in control of your emotions right now.

Return to the purpose of the thread, Sven. I'm saying this respectfully.

Thank you.

Thank you Snowy and Thank you Sven the mutual show of respect is much needed in this time.

Thanks for throwing up a shelter for people snowy, I think some of us the older siblings (ehm me...) probably should have stepped up looking after the younger kids instead of paying attention to the fight. Lessons learned.

For anyone that has anything they need, I have an open inbox, harass, threaten, vent, ask questions, just chat hey I'm here! Same rules apply as in my classroom. Nothin leaves our discussion unless you (show a viable threat to yourself or others).

Peace to all for a bit,
Kobos

Dude, Alethea is one person. TOTJO is many people. I don't know anything about any bans but my guess is that it involved spam, ads, or some other kind of indecent behaviour. If that's not correct there is a mechanism to get unbanned. Just talk to the mods and they can undo it. I think I've been recommended for ban a dozen times over the past 5 years and the mods refused because I responded quickly and showed I am just being honest and it was taken wrong.

I'm also having problems with Alethea. I don't know why. Maybe we just see the world differently. Maybe having sex in my world is OK and in hers it is a sin, I don't know. It's like a culture clash. She needs to open her mind to the greater Jedi awareness in order to get along. Maybe that means going back over the IP or doing the forums. I know I've certainly had to do it many times so it's no dishonour.

Few are those who see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts.
