In the early days of my training, I threw a lot of tantrums. I fought tooth and nail to prevent my own growth. I'm sure many of you know what I mean.
My teacher told me a story of how when she would change the diaper of her nephew, he would kick and fuss. He did not enjoy the process. But she would smile and ask him "Are you helping?" He eventually understood that if he would stop fussing, the process would both go much quicker and be more pleasant.
Avalon, are you helping?
What are the goals of Avalon? And are you helping?
Some of you seem to never miss a chance to be at odds with the mods and Bill. Every time they do their job you cry foul. every time you disagree with a decision you cry for democracy, transparency, and start silly petitions. You are not going to recreate Avalon in your own image. If you were, it would have happened by now.
Enough already. If you are so unhappy here and so dislike the boundaries, guidelines, and methods of the mod team, then why are you still here? If this place is so horrible then be on your way and let the rest of us get on with our business.
I was unhappy years ago with the policies of the mod team at Divinecosmos. So I left. I didn't need to make a big parade and fanfare about it. I just moved on to find where I would fit better.
With every post, ask yourself if you are building Avalon or tearing it down. Are you moving Avalon towards its goals or just creating more noise, drama, and distraction.
