    King's Cross Station- Platform 9 and 3/4

    Many young wizards, such as the famous Harry Potter, eagerly await the trip to Hogwarts from Platform 9 3/4. In order to do that though, they must go to King's Cross Station in London, by way of muggle transportation since it is a muggle train station. Between Platforms 9 and 10, there is a barrier. To any muggle this wall seems perfectly solid. But to Hogwarts students; however, it is the gateway to getting away from home and getting to Hogwarts. Through the barrier one goes, and then they find themselves among a horde of students, all saying goodbye to parents. Such is the bitter sweetness of platform 9 and 3/4.

    It's very interesting! The topics go from LMAO to serious in a matter of seconds! Who could ask for more! I've never seen so many posts on poo, poo! That was getting down and dirty with it! Thats how I would describe this forum " We get down and dirty with the best of EM " !!!!!!! and clean sometimes too! Those are the boring topics, though!

    A discussion board where lurking JWs, doubting JWs, and ex-JWs hang out.

    That's pretty much it.

    I would describe "The Board " as a place of recovery for those who have either left or were forcibly removed from the organization, that can be utilized to work thru some of the painful issues of being JW.

    Upon coming here, some may find healing from the tyranical like rulership that has incorporated fear and misunderstanding in the lives of many of us, and might find a way to get beyond no longer being able to associate with their loved ones who may still be on the inside. Everyone here is not disfellowshipped or disassociated, and many who come here, in various stages, still frequent the KH.

    Being able to discuss your concerns here in the open gives a voice to what troubles so many of us, as we all either try to get beyond being JW, or even having a place to be until you can comfortably go back to being JW, should that be your choice.

    This board has only 1 thing missing......The search button. If that worked like before, we could use it for research.

    ...an encouraging place to be for any x jw; a good support network; a sympathetic circle of comforting words....

    in reality; a springboard or waiting area for those on their way to a building a new life.....

    One thing to note: This place changes all the time. There are certain ones that will always be here but there seems to be an influx of "new ones streaming to the mountain of" Simon.
