  How do you feel about the expression "The Truth"?

  by stuckinarut2 in

  it's amazing how the expression "the truth" has become such an ingrained term used by witnesses.. "we have 'the truth'".

  "is he 'in the truth'?".

  most here have found out so many facts about the organisation, and felt the effects of being "gut-punched" as we realised these facts.. so how do you feel about the expression "the truth" now?.

  today has been a horrible day.

  what began as a day of joy finding out that one of my lifelong friends had her baby, turned into a nightmare when her brother called me to let me know she had passed away after birth.

  i was in shock and didn't ask how.

  dear fellow posters and friends:.

  a friend had been making excellent recovery after hospitalization and rehab.

  then, some 6 weeks later, while an infection set in, he had to return to hospital.

  New anti-spam measures

  by Simon in

  1. forum
  2. announcements

  we've been bombarded by spam a number of times in the last few weeks and last night was the worst yet.

  i already built some tools to make removing it easier because i think the longer it stays up, the more it encourages it, but still it's annoying to see and interferes with the operation of the site.

  fortunately, we were able to catch and remove it relatively quickly.. i've now implemented and deployed some additional protection measures which i hope will better detect and block it from appearing in the first place.
