VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Show your support by donating any amount. (Note: We are still technically a for-profit company, so your contribution is not tax-deductible.) PayPal Acct: Feedback:

No, because you need a password to access it.

When we were co-writing the article on Wikipedia (or, when I was trying to resist the JA ability to control their rewriting of history) the JA's forum could be listed as a source, but this site could not. The reason given by Wikipedia people was that the JA site was aggressively moderated. Mike (here) was told that this site could be allowed as a source only if he took a more hands-on (or censorious) role.

Ironic, really.
