i have met a few people in real life and online, both on this forum and on others.
Why are faders such pussys?!?!?
Are you serious??? Who are you to decide when is the right time for someone to come out as a fader. Wanting to preserve family relationships and ties and limit the stress and hurt that often comes with leaving does not make anyone a "pussy" and to suggest otherwise is just incredibly arrogant and insulting

If it was FB friends, and not the AAWA administrators who auto-added people, then it's the FB friends who deserve the blame.
I think the point is that once they realised over 1000 people had been auto-added by some people they should have shut the group and re-started with more secure settings. One of the founders has said that they even recognised known apologists names being added to the group - at that point it doesn't matter if it is secret to the public or not everyone that is in the group will be able to see everyone else in the group and they cannot be aware of everyones motives. Depending on peoples personal FB settings the group members would be able to gather infomation from the personal profiles of other group members
my computer crashed so i am not fully informed of the recent antiwatchtower organization.
i must vent, however.
perhaps i am the only one on the face of the earth (or the entire universe) but i found cedar's opening announcement insulting.
"OH i DON'T THINK WE ARE ALOWWED TO TALK ABOUT THE WHOLE FIASCO THAT WAS AAWA ANYMORE !!!!! band on the run. Be careful what you say.
I think we have been censored. Correct me if I'm wrong."
I think you a mis-representing things here, the threads were open for days (around a week I think) and numerous things were discussed openly - we closed them on the weekend when it got to the point of the same things being re-hashed over and over again. Your implication that no discussion of AAWA is allowed is simply not true
Your thread directed to Tylinbrando was obviously a personal disagreement and would be better discussed through PM
good afternoon jwn... .
i`ve spent the morning and part of my afternoon... getting to the bottom of... why names were added to the awaa fan page... it`s a dangerous thing to happen in our world... faders can be outed,we can lose,family,friends... the results can be an absolute disaster... .
aawa "did not" create the facebook awaa fan page.
"Unless they come forward with their story and personal timeline of events by examining their own activity log on Facebook, we cant put the pieces together and it remains assumption and speculation."
So you are expecting them to come forward publicaly with their timeline which would then further out them by linking their real or FB name to their JWN username, opening up all their posts for someone to hold against them?

Ceders Yes - calm heads would be good, but I'm sure you can appreciate why people are upset - I don't think people are bashing for the sake of bashing. These are people that value their privacy and anonymity (as you do also, no one has the right to demand you expose your identity either) so I'm sure you can appreciate why they are upset. There have been a number of explanations as far I can see but some things seem to be contradicting others and it is very confusing so people are just trying to understand what has happened - and also whether they are still at risk of further unwanted exposure.

Lets keep things civil.
Emotions are understandably high as this has affected a lot of people by the sound of it, it is inexcusable and should not be downplayed but back and forth insults are not going to help.
i must admit, i am a sucker for bible movies.
i do not get the history channel on my cable service but i've heard good things about the series.. have you seen it?.
are you interested in these types of programs..
EP / TEC take it to PM

We watched half an espisode - reminded us of a bigger budget assembly drama, we were waiting for the cut away to a modern day bible study to show us the meaning and how the bible story should be applied to us today
i wanted to start this thread two weeks ago,however i have had alot going on with wifey and the elders,that is another thread.
to be honest my mind has been on my family.
i will be able to discuss the book tommorow morning.
Your suggestion that atheists should be banished to a dingy corner of the forum made me laugh. How about superstition and mythology gets banished leaving the board free for reason and rational thinking?
How about no one is banished to any corners. Nobody gets to dicate who can and cannot comment on certain threads - this is a discussion forum. All we ask is that both sides of any debate show respect to the other.
