    I'm more concerned about having my real name on the web because of work.

    Me too...same for pics.

    I was paranoid about this at first; I don't give it much thought now. A number of people here know who I am.

    I wouldn't post my name or picture though.

    If I'm identified what will happen???

    NOT A DAMN THING

    They already threw me out. Let em ID me, if they'd care to anymore. Funny how all concern about a "lost one" ends once they've gotten what they're after, an announcement.

    to me absolutely nothing.

    for you.....

    depends on how zealous the elders in your area are, but unless you admit to anything theyd probably have a hard time proving anything.

    as for the lady you spoke to.....prolly got the context wrong or something.

    one of my friends on the other hand posted her pic and name on an ex site and they raced round to hers and dfd her even though it ad been ages since she'd stepped in a hall. i think the name and pic was the giveaway.

    I have been almost ten years into a 'fade' and have really moved on so these people are non-entities. They may think they are important but they are a legend in their own minds.

    I would feel no need to explain or defend myself. I would simply laugh in their faces and ask if they learned anything from my posts and tell them to get a life. They would, of course, make the usual announcement and I would probably lose the few friends I have there (not because they don't like me but because they would be afraid of what people would think of them).

    I have made friends outside and connected with relatives so it would not be a real loss. Besides, there are much more important things in life for me to think about.

    I like the night AwSnap drank a little too much and posted a couple pics of herself. (absolutely gorgeous BTW) She later evidently thought it wasn't a good idea and removed them.(LOL)

    I was a "fader" and, although my family wasn't speaking to me, I have never been disfellowshipped. When I began my blog just over a year ago, I remained anonymous, in the hope that family communications could perhaps be reopened in the future. When I was "outed" in the news, my family found out and, well, there went that hope (not that it was ever more than a slim chance to begin with).

    Now, it's all very public knowledge how I feel about the JWs. Nobody seems to have tried to track me down to disfellowship me, since I have no real permanent address. But I've got a book coming out next year that's VERY candid about all of the JW shenanigans, and I imagine that once I manage to settle down, at some point they'll try to convene a judicial committee. But so what? They only have the power that I give them. My family were the only ones "in" that I cared about getting out, and I've come to terms that it'll probably never happen. I spent a long time worrying about being I.D.'d, and then when it finally happened, it was far less harrowing and damning than I'd imagined it would be.

    I really could care less. I Da ed myself 12 years ago. My parents are the only ones I talk to in my family anyway and they know I come to EX JW boards. They know I post on them. They know I have met people from them. I don't hide any aspect of my life from them.

    if they could really figure out who I am then I would be disfellowshipped. I would not deny it at this point, why should I? I don't own them anything, I only have to answer to my wife and son.

    Recently my mother saw this site after borrrowing my laptop, I doubt she could figure out who I was, but it forced us to confront my feelings. Luckly she is still talking to me and knows to keep it to herself. I think she knows what would happen.

    If my name is all over the internet visiting apostate websites, I would be very toasted. (I still have JW family that is still in, I do not think I would publish my name here on JWN at least not yet. I have told few posters here my name, thats it. I might put a pic of me this summer in the private section here on JWN. Right now, I am a chicken.
