I found this below!
"I remember" wrote:
"That a lot more was said on Crossfire, including Anneke stating that she would testify in court for Gary if it came down to it. I don't remember any exmember going to bat for the family like this and taking sides against exmembers. This was very damaging for the exmember community. I don't see how you can relate that to being deceived in an all consuming cult. I do believe these posts were purged from crossfire for some reason. "

"My point is that talk is cheap. Saying you would do something, and really doing it are two different things. Especially on these boards, where people are getting pissed off all the time and saying wild stuff that they later regret."
If the intended context is what I understand it to be, I am reminded of some facts: Many people were convinced that TF would actually sue, using an army of Scientology lawyers to shut down all these sites in one fell swoop. People resigned from their positions to limit their exposure to liability. Content displeasing to FCF and Grant was removed from several sites.
