  interesting experience reported by this former jw on blood shows the deep and lasting impact of the wts campaign of indoctrination and misinformation.

  it also shows that people can be and are being helped.

  "hi everyone at ajwrb.

  Happy for this lady and so grateful for the AJWRB site. I know that when I started to explore I stumbled on the site too and it was very instrumental to my awakening.

  Thanks Lee Elder

  CoBE Joins those Elders Deserting the Sinking Ship

  by The Searcher in

  2. beliefs

  from a reliable source:.

  a young cobe - late thirties, maybe forty - has resigned in december 2015, both as the cobe and as an elder.

  word is that he is a man with a young family who is stressed out and has had enough.

  It does show that the morale among these elders is quite low. There is a lot that is asked of them and from what I can see these days most of them are also confused with all the changes. Some of them are also victims of this cult.

  Need advice on fade...

  by StarTrekAngel in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the elder that was the coordinator of the boe has just left town to attend one of those infamous schools with this wife.

  the view is that he will most likely return to be appointed co. not sure he is going to stick around here for a lot longer.. i am saying this because, despite them knowing he will return when the school is over, they removed him from the coordinator position and appointed someone else.

  it was announced last night that the biggest jerk of the group of elders is now the coordinator of the boe.

  Carry on as you are doing now. If he is misogynist and hates women he might not bother with you.

  Yep, meetings are pretty boring. Especially now since there really isn't much new material. The public talks are rehash of the old trash. I feel so sorry for the kids that are made to sit through it.
  

  It's not so bad now with all the electronic gadgets. My family still attends to keep my folks happy. it's amazing how productive those two hours can be. I read ebooks, play suduko and do crossword puzzles while sitting pretty in the audience and no one is the wiser. I've even mastered the art of jumping in with a comment and then go back to my own activities.

  Basic Principles for Forum Moderation

  by Simon in

  1. forum
  2. announcements

  a perennial issue for any online forum is moderation and applying rules.

  we have a set of community guidelines and posting guidelines that are intended to make clear what is and isn't acceptable but this tends to focus on the obvious standards of behavior for, well, obvious reasons.

  it's easy to talk about people being aggressive or insulting etc... as those are common and clearly unwanted behaviors and the typical issue for online communities - the most likely things to come up.. does this mean that everything *not* on the list is allowed?

  I've never tried it. But plan on taking it up. My work colleagues do it all the time. There are a number of studies on the benefits of this past time for combating stress and anxiety
