Prana, I think you should consider banning DR. He has his own website and if he wants to advertise here let him pay commercial rates. Whilst that alone isn't a reason for banning him, he represents the ugly face of raw food - something which isn't a good look on a site like this where you are trying to promote a positive harmonious image of raw food to new visitors.

It's one thing to have a different point of view, but that's not what he is about.

thanks for wasting 15 seconds of my life... why isn't this a private message to the admin again?

Next...

I quite agree with the OP. Durianrider is the one person in the raw scene who is not a good example of the benefits of the diet.

I totally agree with WanderRA

People have to learn to do their own 'editing' out of what they don't want to be around, read, watch, etc. If someone else is always doing the banning, editing, getting rid of, (includes all walks of life) then you have to wonder if anyone can learn to recognize what they don't want to be a part of or party to.

I'm not going to say anything about Prana banning anyone here, we know that he can and he does time to time. But you have to wonder about the subjectivity of the party that is wielding the power to do this and I'm really talking about a larger picture than this website.

I get more annoyed when people contribute to his threads etc than I do with him, lol. Honestly, can't we all work together to starve out the trolls and obnoxutrons? It shouldn't be that hard...

obnoxutrons..is that a real word Coco? If it is I'm impressed and if it's not it should be...hahahahahaha

Love,

I'm pretty sure if two people use a word it becomes real so it's real now, lol!

It's official then. But Coco, I know I can type obnoxutrons but I don't know if I could say it right.

Funny...my spell checker keeps trying to correct obnoxutrons?!

Love,

Starving him out never works at my site. In general, I agree with the policy that says, "if you don't feed the trolls, they will go away." However...

What am I missing..HeavenHands does videos and Cherimoya_kid has a raw website?

I'm out of the loop..or there's too much information to process!

Love,
Prism

Many people appreciate what I bring to the table. If you want to judge me then thats your right but what about the people that actually enjoy my weight loss experiences and stories that newbies find informative?

Do you want them to miss out because of your lack mentality and jealousy?

What happend to no judgement and kundalini awesomeness?

Welcome to reality. Life is all about duality. To suggest that this area is 100% in one direction is not realistic nor is it honest. Why is the answer to everything to ban it? And don't you realize that he could just come back with another ID? I am a bit uncomfortable with this tendency to want to get rid of something with which you disagree. Why not just avoid any threads begun by this character if he upsets you so much? Some of us are not bothered by him. I also don't think the word 'troll' should be tossed around so easily. I don't see DR as a troll also he obviously is provocative. But provoking conversation is a GOOD thing, isn't it? Otherwise we'd be dry and BOR-ing!

Pretty rich coming from you. Problem people have with you is your lack of professionalism and respect. If you wanna run around in the gutter fine, but dont drag other people down with you.

Uh, you cannot ask that someone be banned just because they rub you the wrong way. This site doesn't work that way.

Am wondering what the motivation for making this public, rather than a pm to the mods, could have been . . .

if you cant take the rub , how will you ever be polished

Hey Jodi, that's a good proverb, did you come up with it?

"Am wondering what the motivation for making this public"
Diagnosis: troll.


RawGosia channel
RawGosia streams

no geo its just in my treasure chest of neat sayings and quotes

...Jodi, the banana eating buddhist

rawgosia,

I don't know. But it isn't courteous, which is ironic

Just dont read his posts.
Its that simple Bj.

Nobody's judging you, Harley, just the 80/10/10 diet.

It's like I say to religious people who get mad at criticisms of religion, "I'm not criticizing you, just the religion."

Dude, why are you always trolling my raw paleo forum? Did you know I stopped even reading or posting there for 8 months because I got so tired of banning you and your friends, and having to see all your Youtube videos posted on my site? You ran me off my own site. Have you no shame?

I'm growing weary of reading some users contentious posts. It's difficult enough to try to better my health, gain some motivation from the people here that exert some common sense, care and helpfulness without getting more depressed because of fights between some users that seemingly have all kinds of crap to spew that only they know why.

I'd hate to quit coming here, but I've been thinking about it lately. And I don't want to hear about any raw paleo website except if it has to do with canine health as in the primal diet for dogs which you can post via the pet forum here.

I'm a human, trying to find that pure spirit of light, love and energy and sustain it for any length of time. I ain't feeling the love lately here! I think we need some sort of exorcism to get rid of the dark forces.

And it's Valentines Day..so let's get back to some loving ways.

Plagerizing the McCarthy hearings right? Pot calling the kettle black afaic. You came here in November accusing everyone on this board of being responsible for trolling or alleged trolling by Harley. More's the pity. The women and men on this board reflect a broad range of age, ethnicity and experience and do not deserve your blatant irresponsible accusations. Go back to your November post and apologize to each and every member of this board. Own up.

Harley,

You and I haven't exactly been friends here on the board. That said, your accomplishments and contributions to the raw food community cannot be denied. If you have something to say to Cherimoya Kid, please do so in private.

Even though I haven't always supported your posts, you have done nothing, absolutely thing that warrants banning. And you need no validation from me or anyone else. If so, please show me the post.

Paul

lol...this comment is not related to DR or the original post, but Jodi, your little quote reminded me of another *you cant polish a @#$%&*. LOL ...but on mythbusters they literally did and it did get shiny! LOL

Ok...everyone...learn to play nice, or you're going to all get spankings!!!

I rather like D riders rather provokative videos, isn't that the heart of veganism?

Heavy on the fruit which is fine as a personal choice but not my cup of tea. I personally don't enjoy the cursing and overt aggression myself, nor the emphasis on skinny and sexy and libido, again, not my cup of tea.
