Don't post it on DIF whatever you do

I still wonder why posters like tiny or rodin etc. get special treatment at DIF... Who's the ones with real agenda?

Going in circles around "the jews" stuff is ok, but questioning modding, censorship, privacy etc isn't. That still does not compute.

see my earlier post hex

Hmm, I'll take my leave from this thread for now.

There's more interesting things to discuss. Have fun.

me too. as you were then

All this shit for a couple of message boards

It's ridiculous

It's just a whole lot of nothing... You know, empty barrels make most noise. Could be true about certain mr.

sean your puny word filter cannot hide the truth!!

Here, have your karmic balance raised by +1.

It would seem so if one were to believe shawn's version of events but there's a whole 'nother side to the story than what is being talked about, or rather believed.

I myself never once passed ANY kind of link through the Official David Icke Forum. I merely asked friends and people I considered worthwhile contributors (that includes YOU, bluegrazz!!) for their email addresses through the PM function on the David Icke Forum. Twenty or so minutes after one such event I was presented with a screen on the forum informing me that I had been Forever Banned. Asking friends and people that I considered friends for email addresses got me barred from the premises for the rest of time. After just over three years of membership, I never once received permanent points on my account (only ever got 5 points one time and they expired immediately!) and never once was I placed "On Warning". But asking friends for their email addresses got me Banned. Forever. No warning. No explanation or reason given. Just Banned.

So if sharing a link OFF SITE with friends and like-minded people of a place that in truth is most pleasant (when shawn isn't here disrupting and stirring the pot!!) and free from oppressive authoritarian modship not to mention unchecked racism and hatred of all kinds is in fact "shady tactics" then I suppose I'm guilty of performing said shady tactics. Although I'm sure some among the DIF admin team would call it much worse.

I hope you're reading this bluegrazz as I've often enjoyed a great deal of your contributions over on the Icke forum. I'd also like to see you join this forum if for no other reason than to see a little bit more of "the bigger picture" as told by the people that actually experienced it first hand. You're a very intelligent person, you could then decide whether or not this place is what it has been made out to be and whether or not it's worthy of your time and act accordingly.

I just think it's important for people to know exactly what has happened without a DIF Admin filter to offset the facts behind the friction.

I got this link from two facebook friends via facebook and one email. Last time I checked sean and david icke did not own facebook or hotmail but it looks like assumptions have been made over who is using the icke forum to "steal" members. Oops I mean traffic. It looked like many here got banned BEFORE sean's gag-order-warning-pm and forum announcement, So it could not have been for breaking forum rules yet. Well the thread has been locked so I cant say this on Icke forum yet. It is a little insulting to be viewed as "traffic" as opposed to contributors/the reason the forum is up and running. Yes the moderators moderate, we get that. But without members, your forum is nonexistent and advertising is irrelevent. So the incessant complaining of the mods who seem to view members as an inconvenience and acting like their own presence is doing the members a massive favor is getting really old. Moderaters/admin and members are interdependent on each other as you would not have one without the other. When I make a thread with a million hits and dozens of new members join just becuse of it, it is building YOUR site. We should have a proper view of helping each other rather than us members being some kind of day care job. You provide the forum and we provide the content. When the moderation goes to crap, so do the member stats. Deactivating your best contributors for egotistical reasons or as damage control is the most foolish thing you can do, especially when members who have reason to be banned and should have been gone a long time ago are still active and polluting the forum daily.

Nice post, thank you

Hi apsara, yes i read over there they stated that we are seeking members only from DIF, well this simply isnt true.

There were mentions that we should find our own way, use SEO and so on. Well we have and we are. Our SEO work has targeted a range of keywords, as this will become apparent in searches in time as this relatively new site propagates across the web and on search engines.

We also have a twitter account with over 30, 000 followers, so when we tweet a link to here, that message goes onto over 30K peoples twitter feeds. Now twitter accounts like that dont just happen, it takes work, time and maintenance. We notice a sizeable increase in visitors to the site when we make tweets, up to a few hundred at times if it is an interesting post we link to.

https://twitter.com/sanctum_zone

We have also set up a Facebook page www.facebook.com/pages/Sanctum-Zone/437457002951507

And placed numerous links on the web at other sites.

I also would like to say that it seems there are implications that somehow administrators here encouraged or 'fooled' (not my words) people into recruiting others, as if it was some kind of organised racket coming from the top.

This simply isnt true, i would just like to say, members here are of their own free will, (some more than others ) many of them simply wanted to invite people here that they were friends with or got along with. Who are we to tell them what to do, even if we tried they would do what they like anyway, we are after all talking about adults, and aware and awake ones at that...if i or others try and peddle bullshit onto them, they see straight through it, and the members here are more than happy to pull moderators and admin up and let them know what they think, let me tell you

So perhaps some of them might have asked for a friends email on an internet forum PM system...this hardly constitutes 'spamming' ...a word i see used a lot in reference to here.

For others to state that our intention is to gain members only from DIF , well it just doesnt make any sense from our perspective, and is false.

Though i expect comments like that from adminstrators who cherry pick individual members posts/behaviour/beliefs from another free speech site such as this one, and then mention it on their site and somehow try and pass that off as if it is the forum administrators agendas/behaviour/beliefs here...again, not true. Like i said earlier, if others were to do the same, well they would find some doozies on DIF from some of the members there, as you would expect on a free speech site such as DIF where posters/members come from a diverse range of backgrounds and beliefs...common sense tell us it doesnt necessarily mean the forum administrators condone or agree with it. Such is life on any free speech platform.

Im sure for example DIF admin and team arent Nazis or Zionists, however both sides of the spectrum have posts on there, again as you would expect on a free speech site, as do the anarchists, the communists, druids, christians, the list goes on.

So, for the record, views, agendas or opinions held by individual members here dont necessarily reflect the views of forum administrators.

Its just common sense really when a person of their own free will is posting on a message board.

I can't see how it can be made any clearer than that, well said Oz

I feel totally confident that people will judge for themselves on whether we're all those things we're portrayed to be. A few days around here and each person feels comfortable... and more importantly, will laugh. We do alot of laughing and in my opinion that's why we're growing so quickly and bonding even faster.

It's the magic ingredient and we have it in abundance



'Laughter is the shortest distance between two people'... best quote ever

Is one of the search terms "fluffy cheesecake"?
