Board Bunnies Message Boards
« on: June 10, 2008, 05:11:41 PM »



Hi everyone,

Board Bunnies (my terminology)
 
These are message board members/participants (not trolls) who spend long hours of board time disputing over niggling details.  Their modus operandi is to nag, annoy and deflect attention from others to themselves rather than making room for members to participate along the lines outlined by the message board owner.   Edited 
 
Board Bunnies have a groupie mentality.  Using a metaphor, some Board Bunnies, use PM's as if they were the door to the backstage of their favorite members existence.  They are opportunists dealing not only in board member identity theft, but literary theft of their posts as well.  My instinct tells me that Board Bunnies are VERY fickle and that if you are in partnership invited or not, or have an alliance with one you are about to be F'   ICKLED!

Just my opinion.

Their modus operandi is to nag, annoy and deflect attention from others to themselves rather than making room for members who are voiceless (as defined by Dr. Grossman) and need a soft place to fall and a place to be heard. 


Exactly, I did not log onto the board today to endure the exact same nonsense as yesterday.

I understood that this board was, is, for those who wish to heal - in their own way, and not be picked on, and nit picked, simply because they don't do their healing in the same way as someone else feels that they ought to.   Or because they are working on the same subject as another.

So much time, energy and resources are simply wasted, when instead, one could be getting on with the business of healing, support, and growth -- the purpose of voicelessness.

There are some people in lurk land who desire to post but are holding back because of what they see being carried out here, all of which is fruitless.

We are each of us different, unique individuals, we are not cloned.

Our healing journey is applicable to our life experience - at the hands of those who have sent us here!   My life experience is not necessarily the same as another and likewise.

Life is too short, as I know, having been to a funeral recently, of a lovely lady of integrity who slipped away in her sleep, who had a zest for life, and was young.

Live and Let Live .......... and don't concern oneself with how someone is posting, writing, or working through their healing with a particular method of therapy or books that suits the person!

The board is about each individual feeling free and safe to express, share, ask and discuss.              Not whose posting and sharing whatever right now, or made a spelling mistake, surely?

Love to ((((((((( everyone ))))))))) Leah

In a way I agree. But conflict also has a way of teaching lessons.

I once tried "mediating" between feuding board members, and believe me, will never do that again. See, I learned! Not an effective use of time or resources.

This is a great place to come for advice, but I agree some people get too caught up in details not related to the topic of voicelessness. In my opinion, that's when the Board's use becomes much less "useful".

I skim those kinds of posts now, very quickly, and usually just ignore them.

I agree.  My view is that life is a classroom and a place to learn the best way to live it.

Just wondering out loud and asking a couple of questions:


Question:   Who would like to volunteer for the next conflict ?

Question:   Just how many threads have been created about the BOARD itself ?


Love, Leah

Dear TT,

Don't you think I have endured enough?   

In anycase, I think you ought to volunteer as I see that your hand is up first!   :)

Love, Leah
