Just looked and your membership status is 'under review'.
Well you had a pretty good run...

Indeed...

... but it's time for a new start. :D

Meow!

GREG

New start with old friends.

Too kitsch?

I tried a few things there, posts... are automatically deleted, no internal replies (and that for me!); I did send out another PM, if that actually works...

... I especially like the 'under review' without an notice whatsoever.

Things have really changed there in a very sad way.

Meow!

GREG

I'm not taking it as that negative. They want to stop you posting for now but are not (at least for the moment) outright banning you. It's a pretty diplomatic measure.

Diplomacy, eh?

"Diplomacy is the art of telling people to go to hell in such a way that they ask for directions.”
― Winston S. Churchill

“The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting.”
― Sun Tzu, The Art of War

“Tact is the ability to step on a man's toes without messing up the shine on his shoes.”
― Harry S. Truman

“War is the art of killing each other brutally, diplomacy is the art of killing each other softly.”
― Bangambiki Habyarimana

Whatever...

Meow!

GREG

I also noticed that there are no Administrators from old PF left.

PF R.I.P.? :’(

Meow!

GREG

That makes sense...

... truth is, I'm very surprised I have not yet been banned as I have been using the PM modus to 'inform' members of PF about this as an alternative or a possible means to keep the community intact.

I have managed to send out nearly 80 PMs.

Perhaps he's just not paying that much attention to PMs sent. Something good... I guess.

I was correct.

Get this...

... I have had my status as 'sponsor' eliminated for what I have posted here in TPF.

Indeed in PF a sponsor can be banned, but keeps the status of sponsor, but I was not aware that the status of sponsor could be removed.

Also... the only 'Administrators' in PF are "Eric", "_will_" and "the Soren".

Guerilla Marketing 101?

All of the former Ads have been demoted to Moderator.

Again...



Meow!

GREG

I would suggest that if anyone here who wishes to invite someone from PF to this site (TPF), do not invite them or make an appeal for them to leave PF.

Simply inform them of the site and the address. They can come if they so choose and should have that right to decide. We really are not in need of advertisements. The list of members speaks for itself.

No guerilla marketing necessary!

Indeed this still cuts into the membership of PF, but honestly... these guys (guy) running PF should have taken that into consideration and gotten to know the members and community first.

Sorry if I sound a bit angry, but my former house has been burnt to the ground and all I had was a glass of water in my hand.

I raised that glass in a toast to good ol' PF and drank to my good health and have now moved on.

My brain is tired and I'll take a bit of a break now, but I'll be back soon. ;)

I suppose the true test of one's principles would be when one holds to them even more tightly when it is quite obvious they are very much to one's disadvantage.

Cheers!

Yes.

Aw, I'm going to miss my brief stint with the banhammer. In any case, it's simply best not to go about mentioning this place on PF anymore, not even in internal PMs. Eric and Soren are quite sensitive at this point, and there's simply no need to inflame things just to wring another member or two. Stick to philosophy if you're going to post there, and frankly, I'd prefer if we do the same here too.

They certainly don't have much of a sense of humour about it at the moment nor do some others over there. I'd rather we concentrate on the philosophy from now on too anyhow. For me, that will be here of course.

No worries, as I probably will never post there again.

Indeed I will get back to more philosophy, but you have to cut some slack to thoses who it is directly happening to. I might be for the most part 'happy go lucky' but I cannot remember a 'welcome mat' being attached to my back, nor will I take things like this as if they did not happen. Ignoring such a things is not a sign of being professional.

anyway...

I'm done there.

Frankly... as to the sensitivity of Eric and Nik (aka TheSoren)... they need to grow up.

Hey that dumpster on the other side of the road is getting mighty full of posts someone don't like. And I just found out that post over there usually get deleted for containing FUCK. How's about that folks.

You can't throw around unnecessary expletives here either!

Unnecessary being the key word there.

Sometimes there are just no other words that suit the occasion. >:)

And it got used in plenty of other posts before mine.

That explain the banning of preachers and soapbox manifestos, eh?
