Welcome to Ex Scientologist Message Board Redux (2025)

Welcome to ESMB Redux.

When Emma announced ESBM was closing for live posting, I contacted her about starting a new board.

She (and her most generous anonymous donor) have helped me get this board setup for you all.

I'm new to running a forum so I hope you will be patient as I figure out all that is involved.

I hope you will enjoy being here as much as you did on ESMB.

Thanks for participating!

P&B

Me too

I guess I'd better read the rules now...

Good thing I haven't learnt how to read yet. I just look at the pictures, press buttons and hammer the keys. Somehow that makes people send smiles and thumbs up. Keeps me going.

Thank you @PirateAndBum for doing this.

Thank you @Emma for helping make this happen.

Thanks a lot to all involved for starting a new board.

I have learned so much from the insightful commentators on the exscn board. Not only about COS but also about the difficult task of navigating life i general and was very sad if all the good people would be scattered in all directions
My username is changed from a stupid one (made in a hurry) that kept me from commenting out of embarrassment - hahaha.

Hope everything will run smoothly for you with lots of fun and laughter.

Yay!

That is all.

Thank you SO much for doing this and for letting me join, too. That was very nice of Emma to help you set this up and also to let you have the emojis.

Thanks also to anonymous donor.

(oops, those emojis didn't work...heh)

I think you saved a few people from despair and will be appreciated for it. I think most that are here now can self moderate which will make it easier for you and they know how to settle down new uppity's so, REALLY, you did good.

Including myself

PirateAndBum,
Time to pour yourself a good whisky, put your feet up and contemplate a job well done.

We don't want you burnt out

and reconsidering your decision in week one.

Feels good over here.

Kind of...clean and quiet.

Know what I mean?

I was actually going to make a thread on that but your post will do. I feel like I can post without feeling like I'm about to be banned for some faux pas. It feels free and uncluttered with, dare I say, entheta. Felt that way from the get go.
