Now lets have a look what exactly is fluffy bunny first :
"The primary definition of a Fluffy Bunny is one who refuses to learn, refuses to think, and refuses to consider the possibility that they could possibly ever be wrong. Generally, they find one book, author or website and follow it as if it were the holy word, frequently denouncing anything that disagrees with it as obviously false. Fluffy Bunnies rarely get past the defense of "Because [insert favorite author here] says so." Sometimes they don't even get that far, responding to any and all criticism with something like, "You're just trying to persecute me!" According wikipedia that is what for term is used .
The main problems that i would have with someone that fit all this mentioned above .
1.Refuses to learn (major trouble ).The fluffy would ask same question ,stubbornly again and again and no matter how many people told him what reality is about and how things in reality are ,he would keep asking till he /she does not find another fluffy to validate his/her believe .
Why should i try to teach someone who does not want to learn ?Logically i should not ,and logically i is waste of time and effort and nerves .
2.Refuses even to consider the possibility that they could be ever wrong .
If someone refuses by his own will to consider and learn new things ,who am i to force him to change it ?I would loose again my time and nerves to do so and they will keep going in same direction .People learn ,grow and understand when they are open minded and had accepted the idea that they are times that they can be wrong and times that they can be right .Argument in such situation is out of the question ,because it leads to nowhere .Conversation will not proove itself much useful either .That is their will let them be .
3.Frequently denouncing anything that disagrees with it as obviously false.
If all i say is denounced and then all what other people say is too ,what is the pont here .There is not point the fluffy wants to hear that he/she is right and is deaf and blind for all else .
4.And finally they will get all deffensive or even offensive ,toward everything that opposes their opinions and believes .If we had avoided the first three problems the forth one would have been rather avoided too.
I do not like to be rude to people or to riducule them ,however
everyone even me has a breaking point and everyone can loose patience after dealing hours with so difficult to deal with people .I do not like to be attacked for my personal believes ,so does everybody else .
It is another question that some people label fluffy bunnies almost everyone they do not like or can not understand .As fluffy can be labeled also only stubborn people and i have seen that happening ,sadly .
So if someone does fit entirely the description of the fluffy bunny i would count him/her hopeless and i would ignore him in order to avoid the offensive-deffensive part of the ordeal .Now by hopeless i mean at that moment i do not think so that kids stay kids forever and that people never change for good .Everyone can and will change for good or bad whenever they let go of their extreme ideas and believes or behaviour in that matter .Meanwhile we can not do anything if they refuse to see the truth and change their ways ,we can only try to put up with them in such way that none of both sides is harmed emotionally .
I try to be neutral here to the maximum i would not bully ,ridicule or argue to death fluffies as much as i could resist to the contempt when overhelmed (not trying to play the role of the saint in this tragic-comedy situation ).But it can be overhelming being asked the same questions all day along and walking in circles and being a witness to circuses with three arenas .
There is one good use of the good old fluffy bunnies ,they remind you how stupid you were in age of ...(insert the silly age in your personal story ),so you must stay a bit humble for you have been in similar situation at some point and people had to put up with your nonsences .
And there is a second reason that you got to learn to be patient and to control your urges and anger ,for supposedly you are the wise one and the adult one it the situation .If kids can not be responsible for themselves ,we as adult can be .
So folks get your patience and sense of humor and lets survive the next fluffy storm by keeping composure and being just for the sake of all sides involved .
There needs to be a page where 'newbies' can go and ALL the things that 'can' and CANT be done magically are posted. All should have an opinion 'posted' as to why certain things 'are' possible' for 'experienced' casters and what things NEED study and focus ( most ALL magic does ) Why do the new 'always' want to change something or cast 'love' spells. Why do some even ask about the fantasy world and 'expect' magic to do what happens in anime or harry potter ? This page should be the page that ALL new people are referred to and THEN signed to be able to join the site so this type of thing would be 'reduced'....

-i do agree with this.. as what my reiki master have said, there are some things that don't want to be healed so better yet, leave them behind until they've realize what needs to be healed..
remember, experience is the best teacher so even though how many times a teacher would say such a thing but the student refuses the idea it won't help it..
labeling others as fluffs would give them the idea that there is something wrong with their understanding with magick.. its not actually a way to ridicule them but likely its a way to tell them and make them realize that they need to study more about magick, well because many would say such things without some reliable backgrounds about that certain topic, the sad thing is they are also the ones (the fluffs) who gets mad when someone says that you can't be one or its not yet time to cast a spell you should learn the basics first.. "LEARNING THE BASICS" on the first place is something that everyone should know.. it's MANDATORY in all aspects of life (this is what they don't really understand)..
its just the mind of the individual that makes a word (for example "FLUFFY") becomes BAD..
I think "fluffy" people may not always be wrong. Now its obvious they are fluffy if the idea they say is clearly straight from fiction, but if it is a debated topic they talk about then they can't be labled "fluffy" right off the bat unless they derive their "facts" from fiction (like fiction books, movies, tv shows ect...) if they state facts from a more reliable or otherwise "not proven wrong" source eg:
Topic: vampires
Source: www.vampirewebsite.net
Then they maybe right so therefore can't be called "fluffy" or even "wrong" they simply need to be heard out and discussed with about the topic. Case closed
