I was referring mainly to two ID's on the site, that could possibly be the same person. I don't have IP info.

The first was "Arrivederci NND" who was kind enough to forcast our end in the message below saying "NDN's usefullness has expired and their days are numbered."

Also "Examiner" who also call for the mighty NDN to cumble, saying " No action on NDN hardly at all since the coordinators pounced on free speech and expression." Which is simply not true.

As I said, I laughed that stuff off becuase I viewed them as wishful thinking of people who just don't like NDN, given that our message count is high, and our hits are as good as ever, we are not going anywhere anytime soon. Besides, we already paid for the website six months in advance and the NDN domain name for a year in December.

I also laughed it off because nobody probably wishes for the end of NDN more than some of those who work very hard to provide it. The same people who take abuse from users, etc. I'm sure the Coordinators here know what I'm talking about. We work hard for really nothing in exchange, and pay for it to boot.

What makes it all work for me is the positive feedback we get from time to time. People who email us to say that they turned away from the cult, got a job and started a new life after reading messages and material available on NDN. In that respect, all of the major ex-member websites are on the same page. All of us have different approaches, but in 2007 we are all focused on helping people leave the cult and recover from their experiences.
