Same problem. Chances are, if the site was redone the code would have to change drastically to provide new features, improve stability and so on as well as saving the member database.
There are paid/free solutions out there that are excellent, but if something is well known chances are so are its security flaws.

My Strange Event: is THIS what some might call a "religious" experience?
by unshackled inokay, you're probably wondering what the hell this funky little astronaut has to do with this.
first a quick setup.... like most on here i'm sure we're all aware of the struggle to rid ourselves of our jw programming.
top of my mind lately is realizing i'm not living my life.

Sign wise...its a plastic figure, and i'd expect signs from any higher being to be greater, wouldn't you? I appreciate you are looking for some direction right now, but the best way to move out of your 'rut' is to make plans and take action yourself. Don't wait around for someone to give you guidance, set out to make changes that you alone can be proud of and rightfully so!

Is this related to the hyroglyphics found in Egypt? I watched a documentary on it a few years ago and while i'm not really sure what to believe, it sent a chill down my spine.

The site does need a huge overhaul, but it isn't as sim ple as 'just replacing the software' because there is no simple way to transfer member accounts and topics/posts without bugs, and on a site this big it'd take a long time to do it.

JudgeRutherfraud. You should have explained yourself fully to the first young man you met, not 'tailed them' while they did their ministry. You scared one lad and quite possibly alienated another. As for JunkYardDog, i recommend you calm down. Someone doesn't believe your 'brother' and you feel you are in a position to start dealing out threats? Grow up.

Eidetic/Photographic Memory: your "view," please
by compound complex inhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/eidetic_memory.
i'm currently researching the above, as the term has come up here frequently.
if you have merely a good memory, or truly an eidetic memory, do you literally see [inside your head] every page and every word of a book you've read?.

I WAS CAUGHT emailing a pdf copy of the New Elders Book
by Smoky ini sent a .pdf to a few friends and one of them betrayed me and forward it to a elder i know, along with the emails of the recipients.
i cant believe i was so naive to think that i can trust someone..stupid.
i have not talked to the "benedict arnold" yet, but hopefully soon.

There is a chance the Elders will come prepared with printouts/screenshots, proving you sent the emails.
Perhaps you could say you lost your copy of the Watchtower Library so you were downloading it from a torrent site because it was getting late and you didnt want to disturb anyone, and the Elders pdf appeared on there too and you assumed it was freely available, why else would it be on the internet?

Before depression and anxiety really took hold i was able to memorize things easily and everything i saw, i could recall in my mind (and still can sometimes to be honest) where people were stood, their expression, where things were in the room and so on and see it as one would a photograph.
Weirdly, i can also see in my mind like a 'tour' my way around a home after i visited if i happen to pay more than passing attention. Although its much more vague than it used to be. Prior to my anxiety took hold, i could almost accurately remember the placing of objects such as a used cup, a vase, the remote control, where there was a blemish on the wall and so on and see that in my mind (blemishes on the wall would have to be after a few visits). I think sometimes my head 'filled the rest in' with generic stuff to make the image seem complete so it wasn't 100% accurate.
Smells, Songs and so on used to trigger memories or even just feelings that i could relate to when i first heard that song. An intense form of nostalgia.
As 'useful' as all this seemed, it took its toll on me i think. My mind was working in overdrive most times while i tried to make sense of all i had took in.
Another strange thing, when remembering spellings of words i could see them in my head..
