    Dear All Random Photographers,

    I hope it is okay, but we have randomly decided to move the lot of you to our Treeleaf Art Circle.

    If there are any random comments or random protests, please let me know. I will randomly respond or ignore you.

    Gassho, Jundo

      For consideration:

      Photos submitted generally are of 2 categories, artistic and some are more personal in nature.

      The artistic ones should be placed in the art forum but placing the ones with personal content there may take away from the opportunity for members to make a better connection with each other (the photos would be harder to find) and this point is made all the time by asking members to put a picture of themselves in the avatar.

      I often say to my patients: if it ain't broken, don't fix it; don't fix it till is broken; what gets you well keeps you well (the current forum format)...

        Randomly noted. The same connections can still be made here.

              I think that a reasonable solution to recent remarks on my part that have been disturbing to some is to revoke posting privileges on my part for an indeterminate amount of time.

              This would help me and others to stay more focused on the present as my posts can be disturbing to some.

              This request comes from me so others need not feel that individually they had a specific impact on revoking my posting privileges for a time.

              An evaluation as to whether posting privileges should be restored can be made at a different time. In the meantime I would just participate as a guest or other form where I can not post.

                IMHO everyone has their own way of expressing things. I specialise in verbosity with politics sneaking in at times. When I go too far the Sangha Police i.e. Jundo pulls me aside (regularly) and gives me a gentle kick up the arse. I would hate for anyone to have posting privileges revoked or be censored unless they are incapable of adhering to basic guidelines for Sangha conduct.

                  Request denied!

                  However, I do note that the above posting by you is four sentences, not three.

                      PS - And I would add what I noted in our new "Welcome" to new folks message yesterday ...

                      The only 'rule' on the Forum, besides "Just Sitting" Zazen each day, is to be kind to each other and mutually maintain “gentle speech” in all communication, even when voices disagree on hot issues. Perhaps more than anything, this allows a warm, welcoming atmosphere for new and old, where people can open up without fear.
