Very dark and confusing info...
by sp74bb insome internal sources in jw.org has brought me attention to the following data:.
- in which european country, not member of the eu, and well known for their banking industry, jw.org and some affiliated structures do maintain some business incorporated structures and companies?.
- which is the purpose of these business and company structures?.

You wear tight pants and you will be in trouble
by wannaexit ini was reading in another forum, that a letter to the elders instructed them to speak to anybody who persists in wearing tight pants.
if changes don't happen then the instructions are to disqualify him from being a publisher but it won't be announced to the congregation.
i am am curious to see if this letter will surface.

Let's be fair guys. The tight pants rule also applies to molesters.
IF a molester wears tight pants then they would no longer be qualified to share in the ministry. (no announcement to be made either!)Yep, What a crazy cult!

Reminder about how posting limits work
by Simon inbecause some people still seem to struggle with the concept.. posting limits suck for normal posters and in an ideal world we could do without them but they do serve some useful purpose:.
they limit the impact of any spammers inundating the site.. the prevent people with too much time and no self-filter from completely taking over and / or trying to use the forum as a live-chat system.. they are a useful throttle for anyone behaving badly (i.e.
where an outright banning would be inappropriate).. normal posting limits are very rigid in that when you hit them, the post that you possibly spent a long time working on is gone (unless you saved it first).

Hi Simon,
Does the post limit apply to everyone regardless of whether or not they have been on the forum for a long time, posted many times and established that they aren't a bot?
If not could this be added to the so that post limit only applies to certain members (newbies and posted under a certain amount) ?Cheers

No more printing of WT and Awake in my country.. Shit just got real
by cognitivedizzy inguys .
a letter was just read in out kh stating that all printing of wt and awake is ceased for the coming year and we will just place tracts on fs, countries which were cared by our branch will be cared by other countries...along with this they read the new fs form and stuff about reporting links of videos wtf..lol.
i can't tell which country perhaps that will give away a lot, any one with a similar information.

Hi cognitive dizzy,
Any idea how much paper is left? So once the tracts are all out will it just be videos on tablets? There are so many poor people who don't have tech and reliable internet. How are they supposed to get the kingdom message?

The latest Watchtower magazine needs to feature a picture of Jesus walking around in his sandals carrying an iPad.
Because of all the Christ-like qualities, TECH-SAVVYness is the most important. -

Aus Bethel reducing numbers dramatically.
by joey jojo insorry if this is old news but just heard that there will only be about 75 people left at sydney bethel after layoffs.
-
Dark Knight
Yes, cause Jesus died on a really big toothpick (as they believe) :D
Is there any talk of selling of the actual property where the Australian Bethel is currently located. I imagine with all the downsizing it's going to rapidly turn into an empty shell of what it used to be.

The Accounts Report or lack of one
by OnTheWayOut ini am pretty sure it's still the same since i stopped attending almost 10 years ago, but this is something to think about:.
at the kingdom hall, there's an accounts report.
they say they gathered in an exact amount of money for both local expenses and worldwide work and that it exactly went to these exact expenses and this amount was sent to watchtower.

So the parking was actually free but the Watchtower was charging the brothers and sisters a fee to use it?
That's such a blatant scam! Jesus words: "You received free, give free" obviously don't seem to mean a thing to the Watchtower.DK
