  Zoom App Facing Probs? Another mishap or money grabbing opportuity?

  "while we have seen increased usage of our service globally, there are no assurances that we will also experience an increase in paying customers or that new or existing users will continue to utilize our services at the same levels after the outbreak has tempered,” zoom said in the filing.. https://mspoweruser.com/zoom-warns-investors-they-may-become-a-victim-of-their-own-success-as-costs-spiral/.

  at the moment lots of jdumbs are using the 40 minute free modes, but the paper says it has made it free since the corona crisis.. i was just thinking this could lead to either a problem for jdumbs if zoom puts a hefty price for users or,their may be a opportunity for washtowel to dig their fingers into the pie as we have seen in their dealings.

  its all about the money.. perhaps washtowel will develop their own and sell it to their members since they have most of this technology set up....donations can pour in again like water.... what are your thoughts!.

  Happy 20th Birthday to JWD / JWN

  as sgt pepper sang, "it was 20 years ago today" ... that i made my first post on my first forum.. i obviously didn't put too much thought into what it should say although i must have burned 45 posts testing things and was too lazy to reset the counter before going live (?):.

  https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/46/welcome.

  but somehow, it worked and grew and here we all are, 20 years on.

  Thanks Simon,

  I remember you intended to quit the forum and how in panic we were.

  Please go on with this good work, it helps us dealing with our experiences.

  hey guys,.

  i'm out of the jws for 12 years now and stopped thinking about the whole thing a long time ago.. but recently, i wondered how jws deal with corona?

  i've read on the forums that they suspended meetings and tried to hold them online.. but are they still doing field service?.

  Good News About the Covid-10 and the Watchtower Bible and Truck Society! n

  by 1234 in

  we all know that things are all going to be way different when we get through this milestone.. like hurricane katrina, people survived this but new orleans even 16 years later is way different.

  our economy is like a shark that must keep moving through the water.

  stop it and it will die.. the witnesses like many people in the world, have little to no savings.

  There is between JW's much pressure to use Zoom for online meetings, with camera at home so everyone see each other. In meeting outfit.

  There is a lot of focus to keep a group thinking.

  So they are aware of the importancy of it for the jw.org organization.

  Of course, they will make a landmark experience of it, like 1914 or 1918.

  2020 the year of the last day of the last days.

  Don't worry, jw.org will survive, maybe smaller but I expect they will profit of it in doctrine.

  Last night's local needs

  the memorial each family to have wine and unleavened bread to pass around (isolated bro who's a recovering alcoholic).

  limit watching the news regarding the virus look on jw.org and the gb will keep us informed (they know better than medical professionals).

  ministry suspended but use any opportunity to speak to people and give them a jw.org card(the virus still active on card).

  Offcourse, they don't know better. It's their life and because most are simple, they need comfort. And think they get comfort. But it is fake safety.

  2020 Memorial - No Need To Actually Have The Emblems

  by pale.emperor in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  over at jw talk they're saying because they're having to hold the upcoming memorial at home, they dont need to actually have the emblems.

  apparently, listening to or watching the talk is the thing that counts.. "do this in rememberence of me" apparently means watching tony morris on your phone give a talk.. this begs the question... "what's the point?

  ".

  I never understand that a symbol can mean so much to people. I see it a kind of pagan superstition.

  Is the WTBTS preparing to...

  by The Fall Guy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  ...tell the sheeple that "jehovah's earthly organization" is financially facing critical times, hard to deal with, which could threaten its survival and that it urgently requires as much money as the minions can send.. like every other business in the world, the cult needs a constant source of cash to exist.

  so with meetings, assemblies, and probably conventions being cancelled, the cash-cow is rapidly looking very precarious.. i reckon the financial brains in the wtbts will have devised a financial survival plan - based on the situation continuing/worsening.

  :) the sheep have all been fleeced - time to skin them!.

  The rank and file is preparing for the bunker at this "last day of the last days".

  And the organization will see their business model decline.

  So with every upstirring end time quotation of the GB they shoot theirself in the feet for mid and longtime organization goals.
