Hiya Robyn, good to see you again lass, missed you all these years.
Poetry? You want me to wax all poetic like the good old days, I don't know if I'm capable of all of that these days, where's Welly when you need her (CarolWelch)? She's the best poet I know, but then she was TWI not jw (The Way International) a similar outfit to the wit's, just smaller.
When I write these days, it tends to just be business talk, SEO, keyword research, advertising and marketing, copywriting all those kind of subjects, less drift and more focus I guess these days, more cut throat. Post on a few business forums where there's not much room for being too personal.
Most of the time, I'm just too busy anyway to post much on forums, full stop.
Still looking forward to visiting the States and maybe Canada too in August, got to fly over to see my business partner over there about a few matters for a huge website that we are launching together, keeping us well busy. Might have chance though to pack in a little bit of socialising I guess.
Last time of course that I was in the States, I stayed for 3 months in total, toured a hell of a lot of the western States, about 13 or 14 States in total, loved it over there. Well, Oregonians I thought were hard work, thought they were a bit thick to be honest and not much better in Idaho or Utah either for that matter, but down south loved it, especially California. Ended up driving 4,800 miles in ten days on just one road trip lol! Though I never want to drive across the Great Divide Basin again as long as I live, what a bloody boring drive that was in sub zero tempertures with snow billowing across the road by the bucketload in strong winds at 40mph, 1,000 miles or whatever that was from Salt Lake City to Cheyeene in Wyoming, before heading south to Denver and NM.
Even had a fighter pilot picking me out for target practice in the middle of Death Valley, that was as funny as hec LOL!
Look, a mad Cornish Celt, bombbbbbb 'im!! lol (I'm sure it was Scully behind the controls lol).
Aye, so everything is tickety boo here, no complaints, lots of work, keeping busy, enjoying all of life.
(((((Robyn))))) xx
Shopaholic, thanks darlin'! Nice one ole gal, appreciate you writing that, jolly kind of you.

Are you UNDERSTANDING towards Second, Third, and even Fourth-generation Witnesses on this forum?
by BonaFide indo you all realize how tough it is for a second-generation witness?
what about a third-generation witness?
fourth?.

Ruddy
I was born in, 3rd generation, left at 28 years old, booted out, went through hell for a number of years (about 8 years), very suicidal ofen, did the wole drugs, drink and everything else scene, trying to find myself.
Last 3 or 4 years have been brilliant though, no sign of depression, no anxiety, just eventually, after a lot of work on myself, started to carve out a new life, not looked back since.
Sure, I lost all my family, friends, everyone I always knew, but then, life goes on. Sure, it ain't easy recovering, personally Wouldn't wish the journey on my worst enemy, but life does go on, there is light at the end of the tunnel. Now, I don't give witness thought patterns a second thought, just realise that it is what it is, a bunch of crazy lunatics exerting high level of control through fear onto the lives of other people.
I personally now believe it's a load of crap, please pardon my French.
You just got to keep plugging away at it, it's your life, not their's. Eventually, you do get to see it for exactly the absolute Sh** that it all is, it's not worth thinking about, giving it the time of day -- life is just too big and too precious, too wonderful to let such utter bumkum influence your thought patterns.
Life in 'the world' is wonderful, it's absolutely fantastic. People generally speaking everywhere are nothing like what you have been led to believe. They are just ordinary people getting on with life in all it's permutations particular to any one culture, wherever you may live and there's some great characters out there.
For the most part, people are honest, down to earth, kind and friendly, the odd grumpy old sod, but then you get that anywhere you go.
As I said, I lost everyone, my wife, son, mother, father, sister, neices the whole schebang, what the hell? Life is too wonderful to sweat the small stuff. Family members, they come, they go, it's the same for a lot of people. We are nothing unique, nothing special, that's just life, you just eventually grin and bear it. Sure, it can be painful at times, but don't think about it, replace those feelings of negativity with positiveness, what other choice do you have?
You can allow it all to eat you up from the inside out or you can get on with your own life, set new challenges for yourself, new goals, new objectives, take action and life kind of, sort of, rights itself again, believe it or not.
It takes time for it to get to that point, it's sheer hell meanwhile, but life does get better with the passage of time, you just have to 'just be' sometimes where you are at, right now, in the moment. Life will self right itself eventually.
There really light at the end of a very dark, long tunnel, if you keep faith in yourself.
Know when to smile, know when to laugh, know when to cry, know when to scream, know that it is all ok, this is you, your life, your personality and you deserve something better.
It's all good.

So, who else is here that I know then?
Recognise a few faces here but not a clue where they all are in the recovery process.
Who runs this forum anyway?
Any of the old faces here from 12 years ago or so?

If you want this forum to appear higher up the rankings on Google or any of the other major search engines, feel welcome to send to me a pm message and I'll advise you from my professional experience.
I have many clients and companies large and small that ask for my advice regularly upon this very topic, search engine optimization is one of my key areas of expertise.
Can also tell you what not to do, which can affect your positions or SERP's as it is known (Search Engine Ranking Position).
One of the easiest things you could do straight away though is to ask all of your members here to bookmark the site and to submit it to the social bookmarking sites, in particular StumbleUpon, Delicious, Technorati, Digg etc etc plus Twitter it of course too.
If you managed to get 50 of your forum members doing this for you with excellent anchor text, targeting specific high search volume / low competition keywords, your traffic would go through the roof and your ranking overall would increase pretty rapidly.
Although someone above me stated this, "Start including items that are most searched on the Internet including movie and music stars, latest gadgets, and world holidays and events." - This isn't really very good advice, no offense to that poster.
If possible you want targeted traffic and to rank highly within this niche, that is in the broadest sense - religion or religious topical areas. Linking to other unrelated subject matters with no direct relavance to the subject matter overall in hand will just be a waste of time and could actually hurt your ranking and position.
Your first step as forum admin would be to use the Google Keyword Tool, it's free to use.
In a nutshell, go to Google, type in: Google Keyword Tool, it'll be in the first position at the top.
You don't need to adjust anything on the page that comes up, keep all the settings as they are.
Now, see where it says: Enter one keyword or phrase per line:
Just enter one longtail keyword, that is two or more words in that box, for example: Jehovahs Witness, or whatever you like. Fill in the Captcha Code and hit the button that says, Get Keyword Ideas. Wait a couple of seconds for the results to appear.
Ignore the first column (Advertiser Competition), in your case this has no relevance at all.
The next column will show how many times any particular keyword phrase has been typed into Google in the last month, you want this figure to be an absolute minimum of 500 searches in the last month.
The next column will display the number of searches globally, pay this one less heed, but still it is of some benefit and again you want to see for any keyword, a minimum number of searches of at the very least 500.
Now, make a note of a keyword / long tailed keyword directly relevant to this forums overall purpose or the audience that you are trying to target online.
Open up a new tab and go to Google.com
Now whatever that keyword phrase is, you want to type that into the Google search engine box inside inverted comma's.
Let's just say off the top of my head, that Cult Recovery gets 4,500 searches per month ok, just as an example, picking a number from thin air.
So, I would go to Google and in the search box, I would type in "cult recovery" exactly as I have shown here. Click ENTER.
The results will appear of course. Now, see that blue bar at the top of the page, you'll see something like this:
Results 1 - 10 of about 5,880 for "CultRecovery". (0.18 seconds)
That 5,880 is the number of other websites that are vying to use the keyword: Cult Recovery - directly, in other words they are targeting this keyword in their text and want to rank highly for it.
Generally speaking, for any given keyword / long tailed keyword (LTK), you want that number on that blue bar to be under a certain number, it's ideal for it to be under 30,000 - 50,000 competing websites, though with some SEO experience and depending on the keyword targeted, under 200k.
You might then write articles about the forum and submit these to the article directories manually, starting of course with EzineArticles. It will take your article as an expert author around 7 days for it to be accepted. Make sure it is original and unique and targets the keyword/s that you are going after.
For example, if the keyword was: Cult Recovery:
Your headline / title might start off something like this....
Cult Recovery Advice, Tips and Guidance
There then would follow your introductory text, again, you would want the two words (LTK) to appear as close as possible to the beginning of this introductory text, so in this case, I would just repeat the title, followed by a 3-5 short sentences, enticing others to read on for further information.
Example: Cult recovery advice, tips and guidance comes in many shapes and forms online, but not all of the cult recovery advice that you see may be the best cult recovery advice for you. Cult recovery is a very delicate matter for every individual concerned and cult recovery in all it's permutations from the hundreds of sects and cults around the world today, affects every individual differently blah blah blah ...
You next have the main body of text, repeat the introductory text again and of course go past the introductory number of words used emphasizing your main keyword/s as many times as you can get away with, whilst maintaining perfect sense and sentence structure.
Only use 400-600 words within the body of your article and DO NOT EVER mention or reference here your own website, write purely for the benefit of your audience, giving them the high quality information that they need and want to read. You'll need then a short punchy introduction, the middle part, the beef of the subject matter at hand and of course a decent conclusion to tie it all together nicely.
Short sentences and short paragraphs are the order of the day - avoid long paragraphs!
There's a biography box at the bottom, this is where you get to 'sell' your forum to other people and the positive benefits of registering etc.
Make it inviting, emotionalize the words used, deliver them from a position of pain to one of pleasure, using psychological triggers that are a direct call to action. Finally, place in your link to the forum immediately after the direct call to action.
When your article/s have been submitted and approved by EA (Ezine Articles), you can then do the same for the other leading article directory sites following the same kind of format. Some will have a shorter admission time, others longer.
Good ones to submit to, are those one's with the highest PR (Page Rank). To gauge the accurate page rank of any site, get the FireFox Addon - SEOquake. http://SEOQuake.com - It's free to use.
Good article sites off the top of my head, GoArticles.com / Buzzle.com / Amazines.com and many others, the most up to date list with latest PR rankings can be found at MasonWorld - http://www.masonworld.com/masonworld-article-directory-rank/
Obviously getting backlinks, other sites linking to this site will help your search engine ranking and position, again the higher the page rank the better.
If you want to know how to get 30 high PR6 - PR10 backlinks straightaway, let me know by pm and I'll put you in contact with someone who will be able to assist you with this at low cost.
For example, there's one extraordinarily simple and easy way to get a PR10 backlink within 30 seconds that I can share with you and it's completely and utterly free. Typically, the higher the links from related websites pointing to this forum, this will be doing your forum a great deal of good from a search engine optimization perspective.
My best Google One so far was in a very strong competitive niche with website competition in the low hundreds of millions and I kept that position for a full 10 months until I nuked that site, didn't cost me a penny either, just bit of whitehat SEO in a certain sequence over a period of time.
As I said, if ever you guys need help just let me know, I'm a walking encyclopedia on the subject and there's a hell of a lot more information I could share with you beyond the basics shared here.
Wishing you guys all the very best!
Mark
P.S. If you don't want to use the Google Keyword Tool, use WordTracker instead.

Not sure what went wrong with the upload there, this forum has chopped out about 20-25% of ever photograph on the right hand side, sorry about that Grace.
There goes my composition right out the window, still, you get the gist and if you send to me your email address, I can send them through to you properly.
Right I better get back to my copywriting, got 11 writing projects here to complete for various clients.
Tally ho!

[quote]Welcome Home Ruddy, see your being naughty right off the bat.
We do not allow scaping "Wind" in this room so when you have to "fluff"
please remove yourself from the computor...It drifts through the keys!!
I would like to know what have you been up to since leaving????
Love life?
Weight?
Drinking?
knocking on doors?
picking bluebells
Taking lovely pictures?????? YES I BET[/quote]Me naughty? Don't be so daft, playful perhaps, naughty no, even the Queen of England, God bless her no doubt farts on ocassion, bless her cotton socks, dear of her, and I bet her farts smell as badly as anyone else's too, and that's a fact.
Only she stands to lose a lot more than I do when she breaks wind, especially in public, but would you look down on her any more for doing so? No, of course not lol.
What have I been up to?
Well, a lot of work, at least 17 hours a day, most days of the week and when I'm not doing that, typically go out sea fishing, mind iquiet comptemplation, watching my fishing float, for it to bob down below the waves, hopefully to come back to the surface with a ruddy great fish on the end for my supper.
Not the action man I used to be of course these days, getting old and fuddy duddy, a bit like you. 42 now, still bloddy handsome though if I may say so myself, single still of course.
Creating lots of websites, membership websites that kind of thing where I impart my knowledge of the internet on specific subjects to my selected buy in, audiences, everything set on autopilot, content, autoresponders that kind of thing. Also I now write for a living for many companies online, no articles just pure and simple copywriting, which pays very well and draws on my marketing experience and knowledge too.
In fact, I've just had a very high ranking copywriter notice my writing skills online only this past week and he's offered me some work with him, so that is excellent news - recession? What recession? I'm as busy as can be, multitasking as fast as possible, juggling this task and that task near 24/7 and loving every minute of it. It's all great fun.
Weight? Been putting it on steadily. Call it middled aged spread if you will. Used to always be 13 stone at 6'6" thin as a rake, then two years ago, the pounds starting finally to pile on, shot up to 17 stone, then hit 18 stone a few weeks ago, so i'm now actually quite cuddly. I love it and cannot resist holding my new belly and flopping it up and down, it's a new sensation that I've never had before, if I give up smoking, no doubt the weight will increase again, I might actually get fat, fat one of these days, imagine that! Whoo hoo!
Drinking?
Cut that out massively about 2 years ago, just the odd pint or glass of red wine now on the weekends, never touch it mid week, feel much better for it too. In fact, quite often I find I can go 3 weeks without touching a drop, so busy not too much time to socialise anyway.
I did have one experience in the Lake District though about 2 years ago, yes, 2 years ago in August.
I got it into my head to drive up to the Lakes in August 2007 for a holiday for 10 days, found a beautiful stunning location to camp at, at the foot of the Honnister Pass near Seatoller Farm, not another soul on the campsite, a field surrounded by mountains, a river running just below the camping ground.
Drove into Keswick to fill up on booze, 3 bottles of red wine and 3 litres of strong scrumpy, drove back to the camp site. Got myself a log fire going, set up a tarpaulin in the tree above my tent (it leaked a bit), started to drink some wine, only a couple of bottles, whacked on the car stereo system, smoked a jolly good spliff or two and before long thought well I may as well have a dance under the stars all by myself.
There I was the only happy camper in the field, drunk as a skunk, really giving it some welly, barefoot, dancing on the grass, moon overhead, a waterfall in the distance, stars above me, silhoettes of trees all around me, the river some 60' away to my left, dnow a 20' drop.
This daft old cretin closed his eyes, dancing away to some old school techno, not really giving a hoot for anything but enjoying myself, had my eyes closed, was hopping backwards in this completely crazy style of dance that only a 40 year old can pull off, looking extremely stupid, but not giving a damn, so there I be, giving it welly, dancing backwards on one foot, hopping, when lo and behold the earth moved for me.
Yep, I'd managed to dance myself in the darkness right off the edge of the field, plunged down some 20' through the stinging nettles and brambles only to be ducked unceremoniously into this mountain river below, head shot under water, narrowly missing a large rock, pulled my head up gasping for air from the sudden cold, water rushing all over me and everywhere around me, came to my senses to realise that here I was, now on all fours, in the middle of this torrent of water, in pitch blackness and still shall we say rather wobbly on my feet, gallantly still holding my alas, empty plastic wine glass.
I tell you, the experience was enough to put a man off drink for life!
Scrabbled somehow downstream about 50 yards, water pouring over me before I managed to scramble back up the bank to the safety of my tent and log fire. Cut my legs to shreds that night, still got the scars some two years later lol.
That was my last real adventure with drink.
Well, this past winter, it was pretty cold, about minus 8 that night, sitting on the rocks of the Helford River at 3am in the morning, freezing our ruddy nads off, I swigged on my small flask of brandy to get some fire going in my soul amidst the hail and sleet, (fishing), well I did almost end up falling off the cliff that night sliding down the rocks, but firtunately just about managed to stop myself from flying head first into the river, but that's another story.
Knocking on doors? Ya must be bloomin' joking. I don't talk about that subject any more, too well recovered from all the issues. As you know, I was going through hell like a lot of other newly disfellowshipped individuals all those years ago, been out 14 years now, it took 9 or 10 years but finally, the jw thoughts just stopped entering my mind, generally speaking, infuriatingly positive all the time now with a most wicked sense of humour on me lol.
Of course, goes without saying if I could help anyone else out, I would do so, but as for me, don't need help anymore, very well recovered and glad to say, will never ever knock another door in my life. The jw's can kiss my Cornish behind. Bloody crazy bunch of people, bloomin absurd belief structure, stuff em. Not got the time of day for them.
Picking bluebells and taking photographs, well, only picking them from the garden each spring, it's against the law here to pick them now from the wild. Landscape photography, still doing a little bit here and there, not so much these days, got over 20,000 plus photographs of the county here, need to live on a bigger 'island' to keep the interest going.
Did go out this spring time though, I'll send you some of my bluebell photographs of that, got some beautiful lovely shots I think you're really enjoy.
It's so good to see you again Grace, runs over and gives her a big gentle squeeze and a peck on the cheek.
I missed you all these years.
