Why Can't People Just Show Appreciation For This Place???

    I'm not just talking about having an agenda in pushing gay themes or porn of any type. I just don't understand why people can't be respectful of one another. Ultimately, it should be about helping a JW get out and stay out of the Organization.

    I absolutely agree. I'm glad the mods removed the porn in question before I was assaulted with it over my morning coffee. Moderating a forum such as this one must be a difficult thing. You want to allow freedom of expression as much as possible, yet you also need to make the members feel welcome. Personally, if explicit images or videos were cropping up frequently and unexpectedly in threads on this site, I and many others would not come back. Certainly someone trying to find help escaping the mind control of the WTS would not come back. I think Simon walks this tightrope very well.

    I like this site

    Find it very open for a moderated site

    Rules are plainly stated

    Myself guilty of posting things

    that can be taken 2 ways

    Irreverant I am

    Not inconsiderate

    I like to play

    Everyone here takes it well

    Thanks to all posters

    Thanks to all PM ers

    Thanks to mods

    In particular, thanks to Simon for inviting

    us into his "home". He doesn't get upset if

    sometimes we forget to take our shoes off

    at the door.

    After yesterday my appreciation has grown leaps and bounds beyond my previously grateful state.

    Well, I for one appreciate this site and the larger picture of why it's here.

    I don't post to the jw related threads so much; I guess the issues don't boil my blood like they used to.

    I like coming here to read the debates and learn what I can, read people's stories lest I forget and post some fluff just for the laffs.

    It's all good :)

    You would think after leaving the WTS...anything else would seem reasonable. Especially a forum to discuss religion, not wanting porn...How is that hard to understand.......
