  Poster country flags and privacy

  by Simon in

  1. forum
  2. announcements

  the new forum originally had a little country flag next to each post showing the country that the post was made from based on the geoip encoding (the country the ip address is from).

  before i switched over to the new site someone made an issue about it violating their privacy and i didn't want to complicate and confuse the switchover with policy debate at the same time as technical issues so removed the flags even though i disagreed.. someone has already requested it as a feature and i think it should be added back so i thought it's now time to open the discussion and get everyone's opinions.

  first, the reason i think it should be shown:.

  I think LoveUni was just channelling his inner Prince Harry :/

  Anyhoo...So have there been many incidences on this site of members being hoodwinked by shady people, Nigerian or otherwise?

  Teehee LUHE, now you need to prepare to be inundated by jw meanies! 

  Some posters asking for it to be an option seem to be confused by its purpose, making it optional would render it redundant!

  We need to get back to what matters most, namely, I want a pirate flag! Gimme gimme!

  ok, so the time has finally come to register an account on this site.

  not that i think i have much to contribute to the discussions here, but more out of a desire to show that yet another person has learned ttatt.

  i am a fader, not discussing ttatt with anyone as i know the inevitable outcome it would have.

  Hi LMR, great to read your first post! 

  The fact that you came here for the occasional KM and weren't 'ensnared' by hideous venom spitting apostates, but were later driven back by the organisation's own twisted teachings fascinates me, as I did the same. It's not 'apostate lies' that WT fear us reading on the interwebs, it's well-researched facts and flawless reasoning! 

  Slowly acclimatising to life without a JW belief system is a humbling experience, you seem calm and collected about taking your time with new ideas, which is a super healthy attitude to have :)

  All the best in your journey!

  Thanks bohm, I was talking non-proxy using scammers, though if they see the site lists location by default surely they'd then use one anyway...hmmm

  Hovering is a royal pain on mobile, but thanks :) 

  So if I came across a member who showed a UK flag then checked their post history, each post would display a different flag? Or do I have to rely on my iffy memory to stop and think 'hold on, sparlock4eva was showing as USA last Tuesday!' ?

  I have no issue displaying a flag but can understand those who do.

  I don't get how it would help me identify spammers though....I'd rather see someone's join date at a glance rather than their country...

  Science is right in its details, but wrong in its direction

  by exWTslave in

  science observes, studies and analyses the basic nature of all the components constituting the part of any experiment, follows the principle of cause and effect, and come out with equipments that would contribute to our comfort and save us lots of time and energyall of which are ultimately aimed at making life on this earth happier, longer and healthier, thus making this world a better place to live.. yet man day-by-day becomes more and more unhappy and discontented, and world is becoming bitter and bitter!

  it means: though science is right in its details, it has gone wrong in its direction.

  it failed to rightly judge and assess the true nature of its prime object (man) for whom it works.

  You're confusing science with consumerism and culture, an entirely different subject.

  Materialism as it relates to happiness levels has been studied by the social sciences in great depth, maybe check things out from that point of view...
