Stranger in a Dharma Forum
Posts: 20 Join Date: 9/12/24 Recent Posts
A Stranger walks into a Dharma forum.
Makes weird claims yet remains calm and still. We have eternity.
I mean, I have eternity. Do you?
Since I am in Nirvana, every day is the best day in my _mortal_ life so long as puthujjanas don't drain my energy too much.
I already figured out most people in the dharma forum who make good statements are at least sotappanas. Excellent. Less leg work.
Anyway. Defends the legend Daniel M Ingram, then goes to post really weird stuff. See Cosmic Catastrophe for example.
Give this stranger a nickname. A funny one. Seriously.
You can use curse words, insults and question my enli... ops, my sanity.
Would this minigame amuse any of you?
Writing this amused me quite a bit.
After all this is the Humor section right? Let's amuse ourselves!

Yes,
lets humor ourselves,
In the manic phase it seems compelling to post a lot and think it's entertaining. We have all done that. It will be embarrassing afterwards most likely, depending upon your ability to self reflect and consider others. Wait a bit and see if you are able to step outside of yourself and give a shit about anyone elses perspective.
Without a hint of compassion, I regard very little humor or caring with sharing anything so far.
That's kinda funny and kinda sad.

Yes - I'm closely watching what's been happening here the past few days. If the extreme posting volume and virtual monopolizing of the DhO keeps up much longer (talking to you, Evangeline), then I'll step in and stop it.

After spending a little time just this morning investigating the DhO account called "Evangeline A K McDowell," I've determined that it's someone just f*cking around here - this person is not here to engage in dialogue. It's more or less a spammer based on an anime character.
So, I've removed their membership privileges.

Indeed! Thanks, Chris! Moderator is a mostly thankless job but your work is essential and appreciated.

Hmm I don't know.
She asked for a nickname, right?
How about "instantly banned anime troll?"

Evangeline, or Lizzy, I'm curious whether you have a true wish to integrate yourself into this forum in a helpful way. Or, alternatively, if you are just a "troll," as you describe yourself. I wish you good health and happiness.

I am so, so sorry. I started my personal meditation log and I am publishing in there. It is the only place I have interactions su far.
i wast just making a joke with the situation :/ Does it offend you or the forum?
this person (Evangeline) was very arrogant and they deserved a banning to learn to respect the forum. which everybody here seems to agree i guarontee I am not Evangeline. The mods can check my IP address to verify. I am not a troll as a commenter accused me of, i dont even know why. I just made a joke
I do hope that, if Evangeline sees this, she can take the criticism not personally but learn to grow and stuff. Do have a pleasant day!!!

Whatever.
Daniel M Ingram was wrong and this forum is absolutely garbage.
I will go spread my dharma knowledge somewhere it is appreciated.
Enjoy your endless Samsara, puthujjanas.
