I would not be present for such an announcement, if ever made, inasmuch as I have not attended, nor will ever attend a KH again.

Were you present for your DF/DA announcement? Would you choose to be?

LT - In the year I have visited here I never knew this story of your spectacular exit. I like the cut of your jib, lad!

It seems hard to believe that it's been four years since you guys DAed. IMHO the pair of you attended the announcement in a really classy way, complete with an after drink celebration of LagavulinIt's a shame your pics aren't still up, because it really shows how much y'all stood out in the Hall

I went to mine. It was for my wife though to let her know I wasn't deserting her. I left right after. I was soo pissed off I had to get outta dodge.

No I wasn't present for my announcement. I had been fading for over 5 years when the elders decided to visit me, why I really don't know, and decided to da by writing a letter to the UK hq, thus going over their heads, which pissed them off somewhat. I had decided long before then that I would never set foot in a kingdom hall again, not even for the pleasure of hearing that I was no longer one of jehovahs witnesses.

Was I present for my announcement? LOL! HAHA! And miss one of my regular volleyball nights?
I already knew how it was going to be worded, so why bother? My wife went to the meeting and left right after they announced it. When I got home later that night, she had already polished off an entire bottle of wine - and she never does that!

but another part wants them to see how happy I am.
I recall seeing DF'd people coming to the hall. Several times they seemed quite happy, particularly when they had some non jw friends with them. My ex and I mistook their genuine happiness for drug induced hilarity. It never occurred to us that someone could be DF'd and happy.
All that time we were the ones being laughed at and we were too stupid to realize it.
