here's a hypothesis that we can expect to see robustly tested over the next 2 (2016) to 5 years (2019):.
as jw.org traffic goes up, door-to-door work will go down.
it will be harder to maintain a focus on the motivation and effort required to go "out" into your local territory because the "shift" has started to occur.
Hey steve that was supposedly up to date till last night! Not surprisingly jw.net figures were massively positive for the same period. I'll try and get the figures.
Also found some stats revealing the male to female visitor ratio which showed something like a 2/3rd male majority which ties in with others thoughts about main traffic being elders signing in for general duties.

I hate to disappoint you but a quick Google search shows a 12% decline in jw.org site viewings over the last 3 months, so I guess this 'special' campaign is gonna have to be done on the roll over.... indefinitely!!!
It wasn't me ; )
isn't going to be wonderful??.
not being there..
I'm sure you'd all love to know this, but the family and I have come down with d&v just in time for what is undoubtedly our last convention! I joked with my wife that it was jehovahs way of telling us that we were making the right choice lol. Although I'd rather not feel washed out for the next few days.
has anyone ever seen any articles on the appropriateness of plastic surgery for wittos?
just popped into my head at work and don't think i can ever recall this even being given a mention at the meetings or in the literature.
i guess it would fall into the same sort of bracket as tattoos, but then again looking at some of the mutton in our circuit it looks like they've indulged in this at some point.
Thanks Blondie!

i was watching a couple videos on youtube earlier and always like to peruse the comments at the bottom of the page.. i'm no sure if this has been discussed recently, but one indivdual made the claim that the societies numbers are massively over inflated, as he/she believes that they include inactive, df'd and da'd in their figures.. does anyone have any information to confirm this or i this just another assumption made without evidence?.
(also has anyone heard from witnessmyfury lately?
i had a pm chat with him a few days ago but not had a reply to my latest msgs.
Ha perhaps they'll start calling regular publishers, pioneers to really make things look 'good' lol

Welcome Yondaime!
@jwfacts: Accounting can't be that bad ;)
for the 33 years i was "in" their seemed to be a constant barrage against catholicism from either the watchtower or awake mags., and hardly a peep out of them towards other individual faiths .. i havent read any of their publications for well over 20 years and was just wondering if anything has changed in this regard .. smiddy.
They tend to refer to christendom as a whole these days. As was mentioned though individuals still refer to Catholicism when criticising other religions. Never Islam or Buddhism or Hinduism though, funny that.

Thanks for that factfinder very informative!
I think the point Juan made is valid and has made a few appearances lately in that most growth, as stagnant as it is, does come from families already associated. On top of that the vulnerability off people in our locality is definitely pounced upon as the WT uses this as proof that we need to give them the 'truth' to improve their lives and become closer to god.
