Will we welcome them with open arms or turn them away? We all deserve second chances and not to do so would be antithetical to the cornerstone that viva was built upon. Like our government's dastardly decision to turn away the SS Drottingholm in 1942, we too can be remembered for our worse selves or our best. I'd rather not the latter. So when Tulsa Chris comes knocking or Kirley emails you; what will you do? Ignore and block them or open your door and invite them in?
Brian K is another story which I'd rather not address at this time.

Oh jeez. Another thread about that site. Where's the beating a dead horse pic? And what "cornerstone" would that be?
Anyone who was booted from the PZ or Viva was probably already given second and third chances, so the premise might be faulty.
I'd treat 'em like a mormon missionary. I won't be bothering to answer the door. But take care and have a nice time wherever you go.
Wish you well, just without my involvement. I have other more important things to do.
Question. If that site failed and was a mess from what I hear, why should that membership of PZ refugees be welcome here? To add what to this site?
Flail away JR, but you asked, and I answered. JMO.
>>>we too can be remembered for our worse selves or our best. I'd rather not the latter.
Hmmmm. I'm confused.
Whatever.

Whatever. It's not my sand box. I just play in it occasionally and admin can do what they want. If they want to add to their monitoring challenges....
As a site that is pretty peaceful now, I don't know why you'd invite back contention and juvenile behavior, but it's not my call.
I mean, it's not like we'd be striking a monumental blow for human rights and compassion. They could always create another site like they did before. There's options for that group of folks.
I know it's done lightheartedly, but to call these clowns refugees could be considered disrespectful to innocent families facing life and death challenges on our border. Parolees might be more like it. LOL.
What's that line about insanity and expecting a different result when you continue do the same thing over and over?
But whatever. I've stated my opinion (after being asked) and admin can do what they please. Have a nice day everyone. The horse is starting to smell and the flies are coming around. Adios.

Ok. For people who don't
Ok. For people who don't want to google "Philzone.net" here is the message:
"Folks,
When I created this site it was in response to Bret and the gang at the original cyber zone announcing they were checking out.
My hope was that this site could take over or at least provide a place for zoners to do their thing.
Then, to paraphrase Nick, the "zone wars" began which was rather disappointing, as was the apparent need at the other site to censor and filter seemingly everything and force an ass glitter unicorn and rainbows zone on all participants.
However, the people who decided to take up residence here have proved to be bigoted, hateful, spiteful, self centered, idiotic tools.
What a shame....
So, rather than pay more money to keep this board alive and provide certain individuals a platform to spew ideas I completely disagree with, I think I'm going to shut this site down.
Full disclosure:
I am not Judit and I am not registered at Viva.
I have met Judit, and some of the other admins over there and they are good people. They are not deserving of the shit you spew, even if none of us agree with the "only happy, always assglitter approach" of Viva. I think they have/had the best intentions, but life just doesn't work that way unfortunately.
When philzone.org shutdown, I opted to no longer participate except to provide a place to continue "the zone" as I saw it. I always enjoyed the self regulating nature of the original board and that was my hope. But you can't count on hope unfortunately.
The racist, bigoted, misogynistic, antisemitic, boorish, douchey etc., etc, behavior, statements and opinions a lot of you display here is frankly pathetic and you should be embarrassed and ashamed of yourselves. Grow up, show some empathy, treat people by the golden rule. Stop and think before you type, fools.
Lastly, for you Trumpers here, you disgust me.

God Bless, Judit and her ass-glitter and unicorns approach. Even with all the hard work she does it hasn't proved 100% effective in eliminating the assholery. Granted, there's very little of that, but it does show up sometimes. I'll take the flawed, regulated ass-glitter, over the lawless fuck-everyone-I-say-whatever-I-want mentality of the other zone. I don't miss it and on here are all the people I cared to talk to from the old board, with a couple of exceptions (who I think left of their own volition).
