@slimboyfat - I won't get into all the logistics of why but @simon is doing the right thing. Not sure about the last incarnation but w/ labors of love a lot of it comes down to time and manageability too. As to speed in the no so distant future I think you'll be pleased by what's in the hopper etc.

Network / Datacenter issues causing high latency
by Simon inthat means "the site is slow but it's not my fault and there's nothing i can do about it".
well, i've upped the instance configuration to see if that will help.. i'm sure google are working on the issue.
probably not by randomly wiggling cables and turning things off and on like i solve network problems but hey, they're the experts..

My heart's not in it
by What is Truth? inyou know how when your asked to talk about something your not interested in how annoying it is, or difficult to debate something from the opposite side of your view.
after learning ttatt i've come to regard the nonsense the org spouts as quite evil then to have to give parts about how great it is makes me hate it that much more.. story aside, what might you say to the elders to get them to dismiss it or get off your back if you told them your heart's not in it any more?.
not the obvious it's a stupid hypocritical cult that needs to be wiped from the face of the earth..

Claim mental strain. Say you're emotionally drained and are having a difficult time with life in general. Tell them you're working through it and just need some space.
That's the best way to draw back without much suspicion.

Reinstated and then fade
by Zeds Dead ini'm a man - d'fd for 2.5 years now and divorced.
find it hard to date girls out here only due to always having this secret i carry with me that i was once a jw and the thought of telling a girl one day why my family don't acknowledge me as even alive.. recently been thinking of trying to get reinstated and then do a quick fade as i cant go back to the whole jw stuff.. easier said than done and was turned down twice by elders after an immediate attempt 2 years ago.. my motivation for trying would be 1.
) to see if family make contact and 2) play the last hand in their game and give the middle finger.. interested in viewpoints?.

@baker looks like ssl certificate issue. May be fine but not guaranteed.

Updates and fixes
by Simon ini thought i'd spend some time cleaning up the forum code and wanted to let you know about some of the recent changes and fixes:.
the avatars and in-post images used to use a separate imaging service which was convenient but didn't provide much control over caching which meant that each day you visited the site you were probably re-downloading those images again.
as they are immutable they can be cached for a long time which saves bandwidth and speeds things up.

@simon probably quoting and mentions would be my biggest want. However I'm not nearly as regular on here as others so don't do anything on my account :)

This generation will by no means pass away
by Darryl ingood morning i hope everyone is having a wonderful day.
there has been a lot of talk about the "new light" concerning the generation teaching.
it's been a major part of the prophecy concerning the last days and of course since jws are the only ones able to decipher and understand prophecy it is of great importance to get this main prophecy right.

In fact I suspect that in the near future many tablets that have been unearthed in recent years and have yet to be translated (there are thousands) will probably dispel this false teach even more conclusively.

1914 is categorically not right. I won't go into it here as it is too long to type but it is simply inaccurate. If you take one point alone, that being positions of heavenly bodies you come to the realization that 1914 is false. In order for it to be right certain celestial events that occurred and were written down would have had to have happened completely out of sequence of those very eclipses etc both before and after up to our current day.
Eclipses are pretty exacting. As such 607 is false which makes 587 false. Period end of story.

Tips cap back at Giordano.
Funny wife thinks I'm a genius when it comes to some of these points. I laugh tell her to come here and find another 1000 just like me or better. If you were ever really "in" the liklihood of doing intense obsessive research on the way "out" is very high.
