Re: Carla Wins BFA... Congratulations...

I wish to say this question aloud :

WHAT`S GOING ON WITH ALL OF US ?

A few min ago The BFA Team posted a very nice post about a many winners of the BFA award.

I have spoken with Lilly this morning, and she will also leave Community. Things here are not focused to give joy and appreciation, and why should any of us collect anger, offensive words and emotions? Why should we be a landfill for the waste? Why should anyone build his/her Christian self esteem, posting citations from Bible, without any clue of things which citate, trying to speak about things with which any of Meshuganehs offended anyone? Noooo, this is not way we prefer.

The BFA forum has it`s rules. It is open for all who appreciate them. SO, WE KNOW READING? Kiss it, or leave it.

Peter, as things are going on, you may be happy for being reported only to the Community. But, don`t forget that FBI may also be called up.

This Community amazing spirit was broken with the first call for the FBI intervention, wasn`t it?

Sad things. Very, very sad and disappointing.

I feel tired of Carla, of the BFA, McCain, Barack Obama, and of all this. Cann`t see the point where anything of this is important for my life.

I do not expect you, or anyone else will share my point of view. Simply, I am tired of stupidness and don`t like to bear with this anymore.

Branka

Hi Jim,

Oh dear, what have you started? Another Godlandpro scrap!

I won't comment on any of the posts in this forum as I don't want to upset anyone.

All I am prepared to say is that the BFA has explained the rules from the very first forum, I do understand that some members haven't bothered to read them or can't understand them.

Its sad when people feel they have to leave this community, but I do understand why they feel this way.

All I ask is that we all calm down and get off the soapbox or out of the pulpit and those who don't need to get a life.

Best Wishes

John.

I judged this picture according to the BFA rules!

Visually it looks good.
Original!
It is well organized.
Obvious involvement and interaction.
Professional looking!
Popularity:  2! LOL!!  Would you eat it? 


I had no idea that this forum Moderated Forum (http://community.adlandpro.com/forums/26902/10/ShowForum.aspx)

Wow!  Even though you can't read the reports and comments, you can read who the complainer are and the forum they are complaining about... sometimes.  It was shocker to say the least!

I'm adding this link to the Bulletin Board! existed. 


* * * * * *

You guys are very observant!  I never thought to go back and review the progress of each judging.  I did it when my forum was in the polls (several months) to see what I needed to improve on and lo and behold... I eventually won!  I was trying to make my forum abide by rules as John pointed out.

Well, I don't think there is anything to do, but accept the outcome of this race.  I agree with Jim that obviously, the judges found Carla's forum improving with each month's run.  I wish all of the nominees could have done better than they did, but that is the slight of competition... only one winner. 

It is usually true though that the most popular forum (the one people are having fun in) is not kept up to be "professional" looking.  They move too fast!  And with people from all around the world (the ones I like best) have some language issues.  I learned last year early in my adventures here at Adland, to "get over it" when someone didn't agree with me or likewise.  Kathy H. was the person that talked me out of deleting my account here because of super critical well-to-doers.  (Thank you Kathy!)  I think now that if I would have, I would have missed out on meeting some of the most bold, fun, intelligent people on this earth.  You guys have taught me a loooooooot about people.

We should have a contest on the most fun or exciting forum of the month! 

This quote passed before me this morning while reviewing the moderated forum...

“All celebrated people lose dignity on a close view”
~Napoleon Bonaparte

Bonaparte was a very intelligent person and I would have to agree to this even for myself.  Please don't look toooo close!

Personally, I think I'll let the dead horse lay, I've been around a real one and it don't smell too good.  :)  Oh, the flies!!!  Yuck!  Hey, my good friend Geketa gave me a map to create some adventures and it sure sounds like fun being a Meshuganeh... again!

Besides, it is Saturday and Kreb's cycle just ended for me! LOL!!!  I can go have some breakfast!  I was thinking about some..... 2, 3, 4!... yeah... cake! :)

In friendship to all,

Joe

PS: AND... I am quickly on my way to, hopefully, talk our dear Doc of the Meshuganehs to NOT leave us!  Bye ya'll!

Hello John,

Not sure what you statement meant "Oh dear, what have you started? Another Godlandpro scrap!"

I suppose I am guilty of placing a link to the winner's BFA thread and congratulating her on her success and tenacity.  "Godlandpro" really seems inappropriate at this juncture.

We have good people here and calling attention to them, seems to be what sells in this community.  This is all that has been done here.  It does seem much more has been read into what is actually written though and for some reason this thread has been reported.  Unfortunately some seem to believe snitching is a virtue.

Branka, no need to leave the community, however, it is your choice to do so.  But then you may miss out on seritonins and endorphins that you need.  A good chuckle with friends, does wonders for the production of these natural chemicals, that make us all feel good.

And allows us to deal with those unable to produce them naturally.

I read the post the BFA put out and as always the rules are there and apply to everyone, as they should.  However, 2008 the most popular voted forums won the Awards for the most part.  It is amazing that judges seem to be making more policy these days in all walks of life rather than interpreting the rules and laws we already have.

I guess this would not have blown up had there not been such an outpouring from the judges this month, both good and bad in their comments. 

It is quite obvious that personal knowledge of the many conflicts that happen here in AdlandPro was included in the judges reviews of the different forums.  Hmmm... Judges Impartial to the conflicts, is too much to ask I guess.

Perhaps it would have been best, that those so closely related to these conflicts should have abstained from the judging or held their tongues.  You think? 

Now we have all this, and yet somehow I am asked "Oh dear, what have you started? Another Godlandpro scrap!"

Personally I don't believe I started it, but reserve every right to comment on it, celebrate it or draw attention to it, as the case may be. 

Jim

PS:  You can celebrate Carla's BFA Victory Here

 

May Wisdom and the knowledge you gained go with you,
