cladking Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 (edited) I have been hounded by a couple of characters who follow me around the net and are quite obnoxious. Some of the PM's and posts they've put on sites I visit are remarkable. It wasn't noticed when they signed up just to taunt me and caused a perfectly good thread to be trashed. It wasn't noticed they signed up on 11-4 of last year and haven't been seen since 11-7. I'd like to start posting here again in a much reduced manner. There are going to be a lot of news stories coming out of Egypt in the near future and I'd like to just interject some facts ands logic in the maelstrom of interpretation. I hope there are no objections. Edited November 1, 2018 by cladking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were one of the last people I expected to welcome me back so I'm going to take that as a good 'omen". ...Congratulations on your promotion.

Gees Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Cladking; It's been a long time. I missed you. 5 hours ago, cladking said: I have been hounded by a couple of characters who follow me around the net and are quite obnoxious.

I am sorry that you had to deal with this, but it is common on many forums and supported by some administrators. I think they try to be fair here. The only real complaint I have is with the "click it squad" that I have been thinking of renaming the "idiot squad", but I am not sure if that is acceptable. (chuckle) And there are not enough philosophers here. Quote I'd like to start posting here again in a much reduced manner. There are going to be a lot of news stories coming out of Egypt in the near future and I'd like to just interject some facts ands logic in the maelstrom of interpretation. You and I study different things, but I will look forward to reading your thoughts. Quote I hope there are no objections. I certainly won't object. Don't worry about Strange, as he seems to have some anger issues of late, but will probably work them out. I will object if you disappear again without giving me a way to contact you. Send me a PM and let me know how you have been. Gee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a few sites I can talk "science" but there are few good sites for philosophy and fewer good posters about consciousness. Quote I am sorry that you had to deal with this, but it is common on many forums and supported by some administrators. I think they try to be fair here. I'm still dealing with it. Of course the only thing I normally do is ignore them altogether. This is the first time I've posted anything at all about the situation. Quote You and I study different things, but I will look forward to reading your thoughts. It's curious how studying the pyramids is leading me straight to the nature of consciousness and machine intelligence. I suppose everything ultimately leads to the nature of consciousness and any understanding of consciousness in the days of silicon implies things about programming. I had thought my unique perspective was founded in reality but since 2006 I've found even my most cherished beliefs are false or only true from specific perspectives. I fear I may not be talking much philosophy here however. My presence here is important to me to protect a thread and to prevent the dissemination of falsities I'm expecting to come out of Egypt for the next couple years. The less I post the less I'll wear my welcome thin. Quote I will object if you disappear again without giving me a way to contact you. Send me a PM and let me know how you have been. Noted. I don't mind being contacted to discuss anything I post about. I believe my eMail is visible. I'll PM you later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
