  1. The Weasel Way Out.........acting all hotsy-totsy on the way out with the intentions of starting up a splinter group. Clearly, there was plenty of dissent gurgling under the surface in 2014, 2015 and 2016. Reports have come forward that some leaders in twi were marshalling forces as early as 2012 planning the ouster/overthrow of Rosalie and Donna. None of this abruptly surfaced in August 2016, nor did Rico Magnelli confront Rosalie on the spur of a moment.....and was given the bum's rush. From what we know (and speculate).......Rico, Rupp and others were waiting in the wings waiting to see who would replace Rosalie. Fifteen (15) years was a generous amount of time to see if Rosalie truly was "anointed of God" (cough, cough).......but as dismal failure after failure piled up, the disgruntles came to the fore. Over 150 corps had exited (2006-2016).....no need for annual advanced class.....corps numbers were anemic....classes were abysmal......very few stuck around. Uncle Rico..........Sure, Rico stuck around until Rosalie picked Jean-Yves. Then, he couldn't stand it any longer. The Weasel Way Out. No self-introspection. No time to stop and see that twi was/is a cult! Full-throttle into starting up another splinter group (mini-cult). Oikeos -- apologia, part v, obedience to the household ---- meet the new boss, same as the old boss The R&R leadership are in the same category. Jump ship. Want to commandeer another cult ship with "slave" to do the grunt work. Horneys, Moynihans, Forts, and others.......want to start up a splinter group. They, too, stuck around UNTIL Rosalie picked Jean-Yves as president and then, she slipped into the vice-president slot. Yeah, that sucks.......and it validated that she had no intentions of relinquishing her power on twi. Did these guys go to CFF, STFI, or others for counsel and/or support? Nope. The Weasel Way Out.......immediately start up a splinter group with exclusive rules and passwords LOL The Weasel Way Out...........The Weasel Way In What's the difference?

  2. Yeah Chockfull thanks for the weasel video I also thought this weasel fact might be applicable: A male weasel will mark his territory with a strong-smelling secretion produced from his anal scent glands ...sniff sniff sniff....hmmmm...smells like some of wierwille’s bull$hit...ahhhh, it’s gotta be from TWI or an offshoot !

  3. I had the forums hosted by others for a number of years. We were shut down when Twi made complaints. This happened, I believe, twice. So the solution was to have my own server. And then we wouldn't be shut down. I covered the costs out of my own pocket up until a few years back. I moved from a physical server to a virtual server a number of years ago to reduce costs. Donations are completely voluntary, you are under no obligation to donate. I chose the most reliable companies, not the cheapest so there would be the least downtime. Companies like SiteGround are great, but they can shut you down. I have to ensure that the site can't get shut down. I've used PHPBB and I've found that Invision is more robust and have better support when you need it.

  4. Hey Taxidev - sorry to burst any bubble but all that hits me as just being a marketing tactic to convey the idea that - like wierwille - they’re into finding the truth...so - sorry to disagree with you but I’ve heard enough about what’s really important to wierwille and craig when I was in the corps... but to the general public it would be wise to convey the idea that TWI was really open to true honest research - and the masses bought it - as you testify to that...Now I would have been really surprised if the person’s research contradicted something wierwille taught....perhaps if you could be more specific on what it was that craig shared about this research from someone... you should have heard craig go on a rant when it was time to work on our corps research papers; “don’t try to reinvent the wheel” he’d yell as he pounded on the podium “base your research paper on something from PFAL !” two things one could infer from his rant: 1. craig elevated PFAL to the status of something so revolutionary and mechanically essential as the wheel 2. In light of #1 , he probably would not have been very interested in hearing about anything that would contradict PFAL or even to correct it.
