  Did we accidentally figure out the max post count for a thread?

  No, but fun fact: when I designed / built this version of the forum software I never imagined a topic would ever have so many posts and didn't really know what the limit was myself, so I was kind-of a little worried that it was going to get to a point where it would implode. But it turns out that (when I checked) that it was only up-to about 30% of what it could go up to (before I'd have to build in a way for it to be extended in the background).

  The issue seems to have resolved itself (it wasn't letting me get to the last page of the topic) so it may just have been something being cached somewhere, I don't know (difficult to diagnose when it's started acting normally). I'll double check and work on merging the posts in this topic back into the main one and re-activate that one when I get chance.

  And for vNext, I'll make it truly unlimited :)

  Tibor probably finally wised up to the fact that anything linked to Lloyd Evans will be an utter embarrassment and it will look like anyone intimately involved with him for so long was part of a scam and shared the same sleazy behavior and attitudes. Not something anyone would want to put on their resume, if they have any sense.

  EDIT: there may be an issue with the topic, while I work on it I've locked it and continued it here:

  He can't even be decent to someone who's worked hard (harder than him, a single mother working 6 days a week) to send him money, he can't bring himself to apologize for letting people down. No, he has to attack them and claim that they are now part of some big defamation conspiracy and that he was entitled to their hard earned money all along and how dare they stop!

  Take note patroners - as soon as you are no longer useful to Lloyd or doing something for him (like sending him regular chunks of your pay-check), he'll turn on you.

  Lloyd - it's all YOU, you're nothing but a low-life shit and you need to piss off and find something to do with your life instead of taking advantage of people who've already been taken advantage of by the org. All you're doing is slotting yourself into their place, you are now just like a cheap greasy version of them.

  $ that he uses the phrase:

  "Hello dear, would you like to come see my puppy?"

  You can buy "success" nowadays on any platform - youtube subscribers, twitter followers, heck people even buy GitHub stars to make their software projects look more popular than they are.

  Who imagines patreon has found some magical way to stop it, or even would if they could? What do they care if some saddo is buying their own followers to keep up a charade, because they still get a cut of it all ...

  Mandated Shunning is a Crime

  by Lee Marsh in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  mandated shunning is on the rise around the world with devastating effects on millions of people.

  shunning that is mandated by organized groups to its members is a form of both physical and psychological violence against those people being shunned and cut off from their family and life-long relationships.

  mandated shunning means that the shunning is ordered from the top down.

  That's the thing, there really are no repercussions for people who don't go along with the shunning. It's entirely their choice to do it, and for some it's an excuse to be evil judgemental pricks.

  There's no legislating that people who choose to do that will somehow be all close with you and everything as it was.

  Reminder: the WTS can't shun you (or you don't give a flying fuck if they do). So what if a few million people you'll never meet shouldn't talk to you, when the practical reality is that they won't know, and you won't know who they are?

  The only people who can shun you are your friend and family, and that is on them. Don't give them the "out" that they "have to", because someone, somewhere said so. It's on THEM. Heap the guilt on them as much as you can because they are the ones doing it.

  They ask yourself why you want to associate with or be friends with anyone who'd shun you based on someone else's say-so, someone they'll never even meet?

  Fuck them and fuck the horse they rode in on - find better, truer, friends.

  But don't try to get the government to help. Any help they offer is not going to make your life better.
