[Opinion] All Roads Lead to Roma?

[Xenophon]

Where is he? Used to be all threads led to Roma. Now, he's scarcer than a centurion in a Vestal dormitory. Not that I'm a fan. Still, though I beat 'im an' I flayed 'im, by the 'eathen god wot made him, Roma was interesting enough a poster from time to time.

 

[Crows&Ravens]

He comes and goes.

 

[Roma]

There is little interest here in applying the principles of materialistic science to the processes underlying human spiritual functions: observation, hypothesis, experiment and peer review.

And I was banned yet again for allegedly being off-topic - answering in a broader context.

So I have moved on.

Such is life

Re: the ban, I can sympathize. The operative definition of on-topic here is drawn finer than a pubescent mosquito's pubic hair.

I think I heard the same word today

Was wondering the same thing. I for one kind of miss @Roma’s point of view, albeit vague and off topic sometimes.

i clashed with Roma a few times and have my reservations
but they are still well intentioned if not confused and have been a regular poster
i have seen them interact with other guests who appeared to be in the same
..."school" of magick, to their gratitude.
so, for whatever it's worth Roma i see you. May God have mercy on your soul,
but you're not all bad.

Roma clearly experiences the world in a very different way to the rest of us.

 

[SkullTraill]

All tentacles lead to Roma*

Aliens from Andromeda kidnapped him.

 

[Robert Ramsay]

He has clearly sublimed.

Aliens from Andromeda kidnapped him.

He has always been a proponent of establishing communication with extra-galactic entities.

I appreciate some of what Roma contributes.

I do get frustrated though when topics are derailed due to off topic overly verbose cryptic Allegory and Metaphors.

Roma would probably convey a lot more knowledge to others if he would just speak plainly and to the point of the subject being discussed.

 

[Robert Ramsay]

When I read his posts, I usually have the scary thought: What if he IS expressing himself as plainly and clearly as possible?

What if his posts are merely a 3D shadow of his 11D brain!

It may be possible that he is often distracted by the spectacle of feasting parasites.

He could pull a Heidegger and write poetically rather than conceptually.

 

[Wintruz]

The revelation is that Roma is male. I always thought female. Perhaps the feminine noun threw me, though, I realise, that is contextual.

I think I was perhaps a little harsh in my pastiche of a post he made last year about Zecharia Sitchin and the Interfering Entities. I mean, he certainly invited it. There's a difference between "this is a paradigm I'm working with" or "these are truths which I think I'm apprehending" and a space-age reiteration of "I have found the absolute truth and the rest of you are in mortal danger". Still, I wouldn't want him to think that my mounting the kerb meant I wouldn't miss him. I've always treasured an eccentric.

and being an eccentric in this company is high praise indeed
