Once again fait have given the victims a chance to hit the industry hard. The previous times it was the GAO hearings. Now it is the economical situation. The programs are closing in larger numbers.
I think that it is time to put an end to all those threads where good time is wasted on personal attacks and discussing porn.
I know that several of you have been through hell. No question about that. But we have several posters waving a read cloth in front of you to provoke a personal attack. They do it so good that they could be working in the industry with knowledge about exactly what button to push. What about ignoring them. They are doing it once we give them hard questions. Rotsne had a thread where he asked TheWho about quick changes when students are sent abroad. TheWho gave a song from the warm countries instead of an answer.
Now where there is a reason to be in the offensive, it will be a shame if the posters waste time on fighting each other. I experience that the trafic is low right now. One way to improve this to moderate the forum. I know that there is an opposition against moderating the forum, but it should be clear for everyone that some posters working for the industry seem to have found a way to destroy good threads by provoking people to derail the threads into a general for-against argumentation and name-calling. There is like +10000 threads everywhere in advance on this subject.
So please moderate all forums for threads about personal conflicts between posters and remove all posts with some general sexual content. I am a Dane and cannot be provoked by such sexual statements but other can and if Fornits want to be another nail in the industry's coffin issues about sexual statements should go if they are not about the alternative sexual environment in single gender programs.
I hate to say it, but most of the links my people are putting on the wiki are from other message boards right now.
Second of all avoid fights with other NGO's even if you disagree with them. Let the attacts be on the industry and their referral businesses alone.
Just my 2 cents.

thewho was the jack off who deraied all threads into a general "for, or against gulag?" argument. it was an interesting strategy because inevitably, if anyone took the time to argue, the debate would be "won" for abduction and imprisonment being destructive.
He also dealt with his cronies Rudy Bentz, Jill Bentz, Steve Laird being spotlighted when he did that. he seems to be gone now, though

Sorry, but no is more than likely going to be the answer.

Yup. Ginger's gonna say no. Sorry. Much as it would make things easier by moderating, it's also very possible for the forum to recover without it. I'll probably write a bit about that tomorrow when I wake up. night for now.

Key point here... ASK ginger.. use the pm function... don't take our words for it.

Yeah, please do contact me privately if you want me to respond to anything. It's not that I'm uninterested, just that I'm incredibly busy these days and can't seem to find the time to catch up on wwf.
But you guys are correct, I'm not about to start moderating fornits. Anybody who wants an explanation can spend just a fraction of the time we've already spent going over and over and over this issue like road kill to just read some of that. If you really want to be helpful, maybe you could make up a FAQ while you're there?
Thanks,
Ever your dedicated inactivist.
