Minor tiff (split from OOBE topic in Beyond Dreaming)

[nesgirl119]

Originally posted by Ev There's a great deal of misunderstanding about OBEs in general. In a lot of books published before the internet came around people used random personal terms when referring to lucid dreams ( same thing happens right now - some stubborn people still refer to LDs using their personal terms - think of nesgirl and her term \"sci fi\" ) . .... Excuse me?? Please try to keep Sci-fis out of this topic, as they have nothing to do w/any of this, okay? & I made up the term a while ago b4 joining this website, b/c Michelle totally creeped the heck out of me when she told me what they were! Also, I try to keep that complete term out of everything (except senseless & my DJ)! The sections below were written in response to the above post, and are placed here because it's a split thread Originally posted by jaydawg haha Nes, acting like you dont like all this free publicity your \"sci-fis\" are getting! :blush: Originally posted by Berserk_Exodus I think Mystical_Journey has a valid point here...lets not let this thread become a slanging match between Nesgirl and someone who disagrees with what she's saying. Everyone has a right to their opinions and definitions of things, it's not for other people to say whether it's right or wrong. Nesgirl, i respect that you're upset...but maybe, if you really have a problem with someone, could you try keeping your arguments to PM's? I respect that people have differences, and that they need to be aired. What i don't like to see, as i've seen before, is things getting to the point where it goes beyond a mere airing of opinions, and it turns into public personal attacks on both sides.

Nes........You are afraid of Death.......Admit it.

Originally posted by dreamboat Nes........You are afraid of Death.......Admit it. So true! But Sci-fi'ing isn't death!! & there are basic differences between that & LDing anyways. For example, reading a clock, reading a book, or seeing a current event. That can only be done through a Sci-fi. Understood!

Originally posted by dreamboat Nes........You are afraid of Death.......Admit it. In what I am about to say, I will make this very clear: I am taking NEITHER side in this argument. --- With that said, I'd like to point this out: Aren't we all afraid of death, even if it's just a little bit? I know I am. Not to a very high extent, but I mean, I wouldn't do anything that would put my life in danger... I.E. try to juggle chainsaws or do anything out of common sense...

Please don't bait a fight Originally posted by irishcream What i don't like to see, as i've seen before, is things getting to the point where it goes beyond a mere airing of opinions, and it turns into public personal attacks on both sides. Exactly I'd comment on the topic, but my knowledge of OOBE's is dangerous to say the least. Debatably so are many others' knowledge of them.

Are you deliberately trying to cause a fight, or just being naive? * Please don't bait a fight[/b] no not at all, why would you assume that. haha irishcream, what is this argument nes is having? i cant find it. maybe i missed something

[irishcream]

if you can't find it, i'm not about to tell you. I'm not a starter of wars, i'm a finisher. And please, if you can't say something constructive that's related to Mystical's thread, maybe you should just leave it alone.

Okay, i apologise, i read your original post, and you were on topic. But why, were you so interested to see where nesgirl had been having a disagreement with someone, if not to add fuel to the fire so to speak?

[jay dawg]

i was only interested because i knew she wasnt trying to fight, no one was but u. thats my point. gosh

Originally posted by jay dawg haha Nes, acting like you dont like all this free publicity your \"sci-fis\" are getting! There is a reason for that....I get into trouble if they reach a topic! Originally posted by Irishcream But why, were you so interested to see where nesgirl had been having a disagreement with someone, if not to add fuel to the fire so to speak? Don't worry! As long as he doesn't make anymore cracks like that, I don't care! Nesgirl, i respect that you're upset...but maybe, if you really have a problem with someone, could you try keeping your arguments to PM's?[/b] I never had a problem w/him b4, but I am not fighting. All I did was stick my tongue out at him...& say, "Excuse me?" Don't worry! I am not here to start a real fight...maybe a bit of silly arguing is all!

[irishcream]

okay, fair enough..i'm just trying to keep the peace is all, i've seen too many 'silly arguments' degenerate into flame wars.

[nesgirl119]

Originally posted by irishcream okay, fair enough..i'm just trying to keep the peace is all, i've seen too many 'silly arguments' degenerate into flame wars. Yep! I know how it is! I try to make sure that things don't flare up. & I am almost never mad. I could get a bit annoyed, but the only thing on here that ever made me mad was what Kaniaz did!

[Placebo]

Okay, now that we've cleared that up... what should I do with all this off topic discussion Hmm. Moving to senseless banter sounds like an option. Any objections?

[Mystical_Journey]

NOPE! (no objections at all). Considering I started this topic to understand OBE's I don’t mind if you move it into senseless banter, I would be happy to get this back on topic as I thought I asked a relevant question regarding OBE's Thanks Placebo.
