i wanted to say thanks to the moderators for taking care of the divine cosmos forums and not letting it get out of control. i know some of the members and of course myself have had to wonder why some of the things we post were not allowed and think that we are use to many other forums but on the same note many of the forums' quality and integrity usually starts to go downhill over time.
i had to ask a few questions here and there but i think once you read the forum rules, search for a post related to what you are going to post and can communicate with them if you are having a problem it sure helps everything move along a lot smoother. they have a job just like anyone else and we should try to keep that in mind. i sometimes think that i have it down but still forget myself from time to time. i think it is actually funny reading some of the stuff i posted and laughing at how things came out compared to how i thought they read. now, i would never expect them to fix wording ect. because they have to go through so much as it is and like i said it has helped me be a better writer on other writing platforms also. recently i posted a long post about in global meditation and unification efforts and i thought i had it down after fixing it a few times to realize there were still things needed and then right after that posted 3 links in one post....... i laugh because they are so nice about it still. so if there are any newer members reading this just have some patience, i have been here since day one and am still learning but part of it was because the lack of self discipline on my part. try to look for topics that have already been posted in the search bar above even if you have to open up a new window or tab, also try to do them a favor by going over the forum rules periodically if you are as forgetful as me ![]() after doing this for a while you begin to pick up good habits and think that your online writing skills will definitely improve. now i don't mind misspelling words once in a while because people know what you meant to write and can get over it. but a very great lesson i learned in writing recently is previewing what i wrote, see the mistakes as i go and fix them one at a time and previewing the post again each time i make an adjustment (even if it takes 10 times). when doing this (at least for me) there are a lot of things you can find to re-word better or there are pieces of information that will spontaneously pop into your head that you missed or wanted to post but forgot about completely!!! so if there is anything you would like to share a laugh about from experiences you have had or want to show some appreciation to the moderators go ahead because they need a little appreciation after all mumbo jumbo we throw their way i am sure. hah maybe for some of them their life lesson was to learn patience and being a moderator here is a good start ![]() *note from spiralcycle, not a moderator! i edited this post about 8 times haha. yes i am that bad. thanks moderators! |

thanks, spiral! that's nice, and what you wrote is very perceptive. being a mod here is a very difficult challenge, and this forum is very different from most others out there!
being that we try to maintain focus on issues of our shared positive spiritual seeking, obviously much that pertains to the wider subjective scope of politics, religion, conspiracy topics and presentation of alternate systems or schools of thought are considered off topic. now that david has a much wider audience amongst project camelot readers and other websites which are more configured to an open ended study of 'moonlit intrigue', it it even tougher to actually have a forum devoted to positive spiritual sharing. we do have to use a great deal of forbearance and empathy to manage this, as well as remember the 'spirit of the law' in light of the 'letter of the law'! we have to bend like a willow in shifting winds while remaining firmly planted, and allow a balance born of knowing that many members are in all stages of major breakthrough, often with very real worry, fear and unsureness. a common lament is that free speech is being stifled - but really, it's not, as there is no shortage of forums out there for any type of discussion imaginable. i wouldn't expect to go to a horticultural forum and be particularly welcomed by starting a thread on the basic tenets of marxism! another common point is that dw regularly blogs about the hidden machinations of the negs and the efforts of various groups to wage a clandestine war against the dark cabals, etc. i believe dw only does so to make an end-point about spiritual acceleration, and the potential of all of us to take responsibility for our own golden age. spiritual potential of anyone to make contact with their inner guidance seems the capstone on his discussions of neg intrigue, being that he has realized that the negs are only reflections of our own choice(s) to exteriorize responsibility. what happens on the forum is that so many who learn of dw and are yet immersed into all the drama and fear associated with world events would quickly make this forum a clone of some others out there (which are rightly formatted for those who are in the earlier stages of awakening to the fact they have been lied to since birth) if not for moderation. when you go down the rabbit hole for the first time, you often react with a wide range of emotions including anger and fear. this is a totally valid and natural thing, and the numbers of those so awakening are huge!!!! comments to david's blog serves as an outlet in this way, as much is allowed there which wouldn't be approved here. part of the beauty of what dw is doing is working to relate to this segment of the population, and offer passively the positive, non-fearful spiritual side of things, for those who just might benefit from that. so this forum serves as a place for discussion of those things... it is a private forum, and we do hold the right to have a forum dedicated to discussion of our mutual journeys of spiritual discovery beyond the breakwater shoals of evil alien conspiracies, cloned presidents and planet-busting planetoids - and the right to maintain it as such. (and here, i'm not commenting on the truth or value of these things, as many are being served perfectly by them in their journeys.) you'll see that sometimes threads tend to veer off quite often, but it must be with a very gentle and patient hand that you guide the threads. often the reason that your posts or thread starters don't get approved for some time is that we do have an issue with topicality, and we spend a great deal of time pming back and forth, trying to find some way of relating to the poster in such a way as to explain something of our guidelines kindly and with a mind to peoples' feelings. spiral, i'm so glad to hear that your relationship with the mods has helped you in your journey! it's very refreshing to get some positive feedback, on this side of the moderator control panel! thank you! mark |

yes, thank you to the mods!! you all are great and this is a huge undertaking. i, too, have had a post "refused", really it was just in the wrong place, and it gave me the chance to re-read and realize that there was too much of my personal frustration in it (as opposed to sharing something helpful which was my original intent).
so thank you, again, moderators, you will always have my support! karen |

hi! billybobbutterballmoderatorguy.
first of all, surprise! i'm not really billybob!...truth is i try to hide behind the image that the quaint name hopefully conveys: my thought was, how can any normal frustrated poster stay really ticked-off at --or take too seriously -- some obviously simple-minded, plump old county geezer asittin' on a rail fence, suckin' on a straw while watching the corn grow? can you? ..well, yeah, of course there are exceptions. oh boy! that ruinous confession will probably be quickly regretted! okay, now that i spilled the beans, i will press on...i'm sure it will come as a surprise to the readers that i have had my own posts mercilessly rejected! yes! honest injun! i know how it feels! actually, i'm exaggerating a bit. mother chris kindly explained where i had gone wrong(s)...first of all i hadn't read the rules before i signed off on them. (my excuse?..how could i .., gentle me!... possible write anything offensive? after nearly 5 years its kinda coming to me) i would guess that possibly 80% of our contributors have done the same thing i did...(i don't need no stinkin' rules!! whoops! wrong assumption! ![]() a couple of notes. chris is a woman (finally she has put up a picture to clarify that issue) she is the strong pillar that has held things together since the beginning some many years ago. in following the rules outlined by david she determinately strives to keep the forum oriented to positive spiritual values in line with the teaching of the ra material another note: david "light eyes" --posting some zillions of posts--is not the david wilcock. also it needs to be said that posts to this forum that address the david are not allowed. the volume of posts plus his superhuman schedule does not allow him time to visit this forum. david has his special blog -- featuring reader responses -- which he does monitor. okay. another disclosure. moderator's mark m and kris are a guy and a girl... they hold hands...they met by email on this forum... turns out they are next door neighbors in toronto. if i got it right, stalwart mark can look across a soccer field and see smiling kris waving back. how can you beat that synchronicity? beautiful! at times there are a couple other helper-outers helping out when they can...mozart and sly.. but they are different...they got a life. (kris will laugh at that...she is the only one on the forum who recognizes my attempts at humor) one last thing. with the advent of david's best-selling book on "the source" plus other public outreaches we are getting a whole new breed of visitors on d.c. many seem highly intellectual and generally well read...often its hard to figure out if or where they belong if the post is accepted. many first posts are good, very interesting, etc but often subject matter is questionable and often waay off the stated agenda target. they are of course better fitted to such free-wheeling outlets as project camelot/project avalon...or a dozen others doing "truth is out there" stuff. my salutations to all! thank your for your kind attention! and as a reward i'm fessing up! my real name is billious g! oooh! lots of love!!!! |

okay. another disclosure. moderator's mark m and kris are a guy and a girl... they hold hands...they met by email on this forum... turns out they are next door neighbors in toronto. if i got it right, stalwart mark can look across a soccer field and see smiling kris waving back. how can you beat that synchronicity? beautiful! at times there are a couple other helper-outers helping out when they can...mozart and sly.. but they are different...they got a life. (kris will laugh at that...she is the only one on the forum who recognizes my attempts at humor) see bill, many people appreciate your sense of humour. i've just been appreciating it longer than most, that's all.
![]() just to set the record straight though, mark and i met at our local pub on new year's eve 2003. mark is the one who found david and turned me on to the forum in 2007. i met chris h in california at the conscious life expo in 2008 and told her i had a great moderator for her, markm. shortly thereafter chris and mark talked me into being a moderator too. however, i do more of the approvable posts than the rejections, that's the hard stuff. i'm kind of behind the scenes giving my opinions rather than doing the actual writing. you guys all have a way with words which i do not. as for mark and i living across a soccer field from each other, this is true, but he faces the other way, thankfully ![]() yes, we are just up the street from our latest dynamo, liz. and liliane, gosh we've had some fun with you over the years, remember a$$. glad to see you're back. love to you all kris |

aha! our "swedish nightingale!" liliane! so good to hear from you! sorry to hear about pajazzo. won't be heaven unless we meet our little friends there. incidentally, it would have read better if you had said, "humor" rather than "attempts at....." gotta watch those little things in life!" let's see if you can finally break 2000 on the d.c. posting meter! much love across the sea! just plain bill |

i need to clarify the strange comment that kris made which actually alludes to a prank played on poor, dear transiten/ lilliane.
this is the story: liliane used the r-rated word, "ass" in a post...no big deal but bbb changed the word to "behind"..in her next post she praised the mods for helping her writing...and wrote that they even changed the forbidden word ass to "behind"....but mark had stepped in and changed the "forbidden" word so it came out......a$$ !.... her next post lilliane was obviously flabbergasted and filled with wonder because her english typewriter didn't have any $$$$ on the keyboard! ....i about lost it! what bad boys we were back in those days! wouldn't think of doing such a thing again...would just do it unthinkingly. billious |

awesome.. yesterday i saw the gas prize and it was 172.5
hehe i see 2 and 5 as an 8 now, lol not because they add up to 8. but because if you put them together they make an 8.. and obviously my higher self is now orchestrating syncs involving these numbers.. so 172.5 turns into 88 ![]() and by the way, rachael, i love the purple and going all the way back to bill's post, thanks for sharing that story with all of us! it's funny and i bet transiten is gonna get you guys back one day ![]() |

wow, i would've never thought of those!
![]() pretty cool that we see these things in letters and numbers! keeping in mind that these systems were the product of perfecting communication starting wayyyyyyyyyy back, who knows when! oh yes i remember these! much fun with combos. some of my faves: e3, nz (makes a hour glass), this next ones a bit tricky a upside down with a b resting ontop makes a 3 layered heart. can also do this with the old style e that looks more like a 3 and a "i" which makes a more rounded heart shape. |
