Credit where credit's due: don't forget about ISIS and al Qaeda. You might see a fundamental difference: unlike the attack on Salman Rushdie, those Su...

I don't think it's that simple, because what's going on in Islamic countries is so varied and complicated. It's really not just, or even primarily, ab...

I think there is a problem with the question, namely that there is no such thing as mainstream Muslim theology. The holy texts and traditions of Islam...

No problem :up:

I use vaporwave unironically as background music while I’m working.

Don't worry, there will always be a next time.
August 12, 2022 at 05:08
Good morning. It depends when you see it. I saw it rise last night and it was big and orange.

I've just spent some time looking at MAYAEL's posts and it's clear to me that it's the same person. The same spelling and punctuation mistakes.

I’m glad your concerns have been assuaged. Now you and the elephant will have to find some other way of causing trouble. :wink:
August 11, 2022 at 18:48
I agree with Baden. Like I said, don’t worry about it.

Banned @"MAYAEL" for homophobia.

We actually made it invite-only a couple of months ago but we just didn't announce it. The only new thing in the past day or two is that I've set up t...

How long has it been going on? According to PlushForums on Twitter, the last downtime was July 30: https://twitter.com/PlushForums/status/155254500965...

By the way, there haven't been any recent changes to the system.
August 11, 2022 at 07:13
It baffles me that you're worried. It was set up as a promotional page. There is no copy of TPF on Facebook. To be fair, when I mentioned the Facebook...
August 11, 2022 at 07:09
That's annoying. If others are experiencing it, we have a problem. If not, you have a problem. To everyone: if you've been experiencing difficulties a...

I've never been active on the FB TPF page but I'm an admin and I don't mind deleting it. Looks like nothing is going on there. @"ArguingWAristotleTiff...

I haven't had a problem accessing the site. What happens in these cases?
August 11, 2022 at 06:40
I beseech you, in the bowels of Christ, don’t do it. This applies for ever and ever, amen.
August 11, 2022 at 05:16
Don't worry about it, our email address is working now and there's a pinned message on the main page. I mentioned Facebook only because when the email...

That he existed was something he found he couldn't doubt, so that was precisely the thing he did not need to prove. He built the world back up again o...

Your point, while perhaps a fair one, seems not to have affected my position.
August 09, 2022 at 19:45
I'd use it as my username if I were you, in honour of the great Brass Eye, in which Chris Morris invented a fictitious drug called "Clarky Cat". It al...

I am but a lonely Scotsman in Moscow, adrift on the seas of fate.
August 09, 2022 at 17:10
Correct.
August 09, 2022 at 13:21
This is why I think that solipsism and external world scepticism should be seen as important ideas in intellectual history rather than challenges to f...

Which one? Was it the bit about nameservers and DNS that you found particularly moving?

August 09, 2022 at 10:24
@"ArguingWAristotleTiff" asked me if she could set it up, if I recall correctly. As she had a history of loyal involvement with PF, I said yes. There’...
August 09, 2022 at 10:20
This seems to be a pattern with me: (1) someone reminds me of something I have to do, (2) I get pissed off about being reminded, which might stem from...

@"T Clark" @"Noble Dust" UPDATE Fixed it: our email inbox is now working. Thanks for forcing me to do it ND. The problem was the nameservers and DNS f...
August 09, 2022 at 08:28
Seriously, why does everyone in my life complain that I'm not doing enough? Why is it always me that has to sort everything out? The burden of greatne...
August 09, 2022 at 07:42
BTW I didn't set up the Facebook page and I don't maintain it or view it. @"ArguingWAristotleTiff" does that I think.
August 09, 2022 at 07:35
In summary, we'll pin a message to the main page saying "if you want to join, send an email to [email protected]". The problem right now is ...
August 09, 2022 at 07:32
What have I missed?
August 09, 2022 at 07:24
Actually no, it was in my reply to you.
August 09, 2022 at 07:24
I think I explained everything in my reply to Clarky Cat.
August 09, 2022 at 07:23
Yep. But I sense you're still confused or concerned.
August 09, 2022 at 07:21
Anyway, telling people "if you want to join, send an email to x" isn't that complicated.
August 09, 2022 at 07:18
To match the difficult world we live in, with all its spammers and Marcos.
August 09, 2022 at 07:17
They have to be invited. To ask for an invitation they'll have to find us on Facebook and ask there. Probably some people have been sending emails to ...

I think I forgot to reply to this. Forgive me. Existing members can send an invitation to an email address by going to their profile > Edit profile > ...
August 09, 2022 at 06:31
Thanks for the clarification :chin:

I think it was Yogi Berra, the baseball playing cartoon bear, who said "When you come to a fork in the road, take it."
August 09, 2022 at 05:53
I want to go in all directions. Do I take the M-30 or the M-40?
