well, I must be reading something different. I haven't seen any outlines or standards that you are purportedly talking about. In fact, I said just the opposite and used my own as a case in point. I don't think that someone showing up is going to be "booted out" as you've already determined, for some reason. They may be asked questions and there may be a dialogue, but that is to be expected. I remember when Mike Warren was coming around and accusing us of all kinds of things, there was a lot of patience on the part of certain exmembers that put up with his F. mentality that he was being fed. It took SamA's website that clued him in to the truth about TF. And this is the screaming website a lot of people take issue with. As I said before, and I'll say it again in case you didn't see it the first time, one size does not fit all. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm getting the feeling that you have a low of opinion of exmembers in the cyber community and expect the worst. I don't seem to have the same opinion.
To answer your question, and I thought it was clear in my example, I was not truly an exmember, I didn't even consider myself that, I didn't even have a term. I still tried to fellowship with other members, I tried to stay on track. I was just scared of disobeying Berg. I needed support, that was my point.
