The forum is for public consumption in terms of viewing and reading; that's why it's viewable by the public. It's just not intended to entice people to register as members who aren't both advanced and on a page with us in terms of process. In any case I assume a lot of the material isn't going to lend itself to the more kitschy venues so there'll just be an organic process of the right people gravitating to it and the wrong people gravitating away and the in-betweens hovering about. Attribution is important. Obviously no one can control the Net but the system we're using for ct is ours that's evolved and there's a lot of original terminology and concepts in Enneagram too. So as much as possible the material should be attributed, not least of all because there are professionals who peddle other people's original concepts as their own for profit. Actually it's probably best to excerpt and link. As for members, the original policy was to be open registration but it doesn't make sense. And even with people we knew it turned into a hassle to get them to do the bare minimum of ever liking a post, so at this point we're going to have some kind of screening process. Hold out on inviting anyone to register for a bit but you can ask them to read and see what they think of it. hiddenglass I can't think of anything I've excerpted that was very unique. mostly just typings I think.

I'm not sure what the current protocol is, given that you approved Ahmed When ahmed applied I was able through his email to web search him and among other things I found he was fb friends with anthony . So I asked about him and it turned out vincent knew him too. When they told me he had figured out on his own that David Lynch is SiFe I knew he had to be very good. So that was the screening process for him. But now we're in the middle of reorganizing and recalibrating. Things have to settle in. Also if the potential member is a 9 who types as 4w5 is he ready for this? Do you have say any links to postings he's making on a public forum?

I'm thinking of something I linked, and did not excerpt.

Screen names of anthony and hiddenglass on the board are different from their general proboards (freeforums) "user name". To tag people you need the user name. A bubble is supposed to pop up if you try to tag them with their screen name and give you the user name to click on instead but it doesn't. I reported this to proboards to fix but they haven't yet. So for the time being their user names are on the Members list (click at top of the home page). Tag using this user name and it will appear when you post as their screen name. Same goes for ahmed and jastyne now.

As most of you can see, we're in the process of restoring the previous structure of the board, except that we'll be keeping the general members private board. We're also decluttering the number of groups we have. Groups have been used for permissions (access to viewing, posting, etc.) So if there's any board you've been able to access that you no longer can, please let us know immediately here or in a pm addressed to vincent and to me. The Building section no longer has threads (or anyway it shouldn't). We're keeping it up temporarily because it has notices for each thread saying where it's been moved to (or anyway it should). If you can't locate a particular thread, please let us know. Thank you for your patience and cooperation. Roshan

Most of you probably saw it already, as i should have posted this yesterday.
Ash deleted his account on Tuesday night. He left me some messages on facebook too, ending with "i quit" and "adios".
I feel very bad about this and i can't even begin to imagine how awful it is for Roshan
I'm largely responsible for this.
Ash joined here because of me, to begin with. And i should have done something to prevent things from ending up this way.
But i didn't.
I apologize to him, to Roshan and to you all.
I also hope i will be able to talk to Ash soon. If you're in contact with him, feel free to let him know that i do.

welcome new member@ash !
The first mistake was not to realize that nowadays blackface will always get you in trouble. The flag is at half-mast for July. The ashteroid avatar may be light-years aweigh. In ascertaining whether light-year was one word or two (it is 1.5), I discovered/google told me that "a light-year is the distance that light travels in vacuum in one Julian year (365.25 days)", and I thought that was a very "good fit".
