Re: [Tap 'n B Free] Selective Quoting (was Protocols)

[Guest guest]

Hi, !

Since this is a newbies list combined with professionals who have been using EFT

and other meridian energy psych techniques for a while now, I can well

understand your frustration, . This last weekend was all about reposts and

refreshers. The reason for this is that so many new people have signed u. It

served as a sort of orientation. My apologies to those for whom this is waste

of their time, space etc.

Everyone's opinion on this list is valuable. I have heard what you do not like,

. In addition, what I'd appreciate from you is specific constructive

suggestions you have that you feel would improve this list. I truly seek to

make it better and better every day, and let it be a forum which meets the needs

of all, to the best of my ability.

Awaiting your reponse to deliberately creating this weblist to serve its

participants needs better. Thanks in advance!

Sincerely,

Dayu

I agree with you totally. You and Dayu are doing a fabulous job with that

list, and those who have some conplaints to make, could speak directly to one

of you.

With gratitude for your work with that list.

Re: [Tap 'n B Free] Selective Quoting (was Protocols)

Dear Dayu,

I can have no possible objection to the content of any

communication, my only irritation is with style...... and much of the

clutter on the list comes from using the server.

For example, the simple style you use in your letter below

makes it very readable.

My message is just to keep things clear and simple!

Sincerely,

R. Connelly, LMHC < brc17@... >

Dear ,

Many thanks for your reply. Thank you for clarifying that.

I agree with you regarding " clutter " from using the server. I have now

requested all the people on this list to " selectively quote " , which means delete

:

1. any part of the mesage that is not pertinent to the reply,

2. including all ads,

3. all footers,

4. all parts of the original message which are redundant, etc.

When these are repeated over and over, and the whole text of the original

message carried over without reason, then it makes it very hard for those who

have daily digests to read... they end up spending an infinite amount of time

simply scrolling down to get to the next message, and may even give up half-way

in disgust. I totally understand. That is why I have decided to request

" selective quoting " from all. I must say it has been getting better as

awareness of the problems and their reasons are being clarified. Another big

reason is that in many countries, people are paying for internet usage by the

minute/hour with slower modems (than cable or DSL, which can be on 24 hours a

day) - at 56 kbps or even 28 kbps and in some cases 33 kbps.... so for them it

is critical that it be affordable. In addition, a daily digest which has been

converted to HTML can be around 56 KB or more in storages space, whereas those

that are in plain text take up maybe under 10 KB. A little consideration on the

part of each participant to " clear clutter " , is a true sign of teamwork and

extremely valued and appreciated on our weblist.

In fact, on my new list, In The Flow Research, I have kept it moderated for now,

and am monitoring for selective quoting. Once that is established, I can put it

on unmoderated status, as everyone will have been " trained " in the art of

selective quoting by then. However, there are only 93 members on the " In The

Flow Research group " to date, whereas this EFT: Tap 'n B Free weblist list has

over 500. So once my experiment with the other group proves successful, I will

implement the same procedure on this group, asking for help from a couple of

volunteers to moderate the messages, if needed. It may only take a week or two

of moderation to make sure everyone is selectively quoting, and then we can put

the group back on unmoderated status again. I may or may not be able to do it

alone. I am sure we can " clear clutter " - the first step in " feng shui " - or

" clean up " the messages, so that only the text that is the main message remains.

Perhaps Glyn, our Feng Shui expert on EFT: Tap 'n B Free, can give us some

suggestions, apart from clearing clutter, on what would improve the feng shui

of this weblist (if such a thing as the feng shui of a weblist exists)!

I truly honor and appreciate everyone on this weblist for their awareness and

cooperation. The messsages have been getting more and more succint and less and

less cluttered. A BIG WHOLE-HEARTED THANK YOU TO ALL MEMBERS!!! It is a great

asset that we are beginning to have this consciousness. And for this I would

like to thank two people who have spearheaded this attempt, Rich Putman and Lee

Lawson. Rich showed me what " a model forum " could look like, as I had not

observed any such weblist/forum as yet. And he gave me concrete suggestions on

how word the request for selective quoting. I am very grateful to him. Lee has

always encouraged this process right from the beginning.

So thanks for your suggestion, . You will be happy to know that the

implementation of the " clean up " is in process, and soon (this is my vision) we

shall be able to say with pride that we have 100% " selective quoting " totally

free of clutter on the unmoderated EFT: Tap 'n B Free weblist!!! :-)

With best regards,

Dayu

Hi Dayu, 500 members eh ? Many must be lurkers then ?

Dont know of a list that has been Feng Shui'd, suffice to say, if people

express their opinions and different ideas in a non inflamatory manner, then

this has to contribute to positive chi. And without doubt, all the " clutter " on

the weblist should be removed.

As a matter of interest, are not all these various tapping methods that have

been surfacing over the years simply a breakaway from Callahan's original TFT ?

Curious !

Cheers
