Mary, haven&#039;t been on lines since 2012, so that is how current my info is.  One friend on OT VII had to get off the overt of not going to events, not wanting to go to events, so they put her in a room and made her watch three long DM events.  Ugh.  And I was on the level and was told that I wasn&#039;t attending enough events.  I asked how they knew this and they said now the tickets are numbered and each number corresponds with a name because when they deliver your tickets to you, you sign for them.  (They actually hound you and deliver the tickets to your door.)  And they won&#039;t let you into the event without a ticket.  It is a way to only let in &quot;the faithful&quot; and not any SP&#039;s or infiltrators.  But it is also a way to see who is attending and who isn&#039;t.  They know when you are naughty or nice, just like Santa only much darker.]]></description>

Do you happen to know how current your information is?  I find it so hard to believe that members and those on OT VII are still being treated like this with the mass exodus going on and with the desire to have people on OT VII.  But I found it hard to believe the shit that was going on that lost members when I was in.]]></description>

First of all,Rick, if he means me, then he&#039;s got the wrong person as I am not OSA. Second, I was wondering if you were going to the NC Renaissance Fair as you said in an earlier comment that you live in Charlotte and I am just west of you in Shelby. By the way, how badly were you affected by Hurricane Florence?]]></description>

Thank you Aquamarine. That puts this into perspective as only someone who has lived though it could.

The hypocrisy of scientology...I suppose the words are it just knows no bounds. I may have stated this before, but a $1 donation to a food pantry does more to feed people than a donation of any amount made to scientology. I really hope that at some point in time this fact gets through to their donors.
 

Been wanting to ask also just what does straight up and vertical mean? Isn&#039;t that sort of redundant? I&#039;m hoping they go straight down and vertical, then horizontal, very much like flat lining.]]></description>

A meaningless sympathy vote.  If he hadn&#039;t committed suicide, his wouldn&#039;t have gotten it.  He was a troubled soul, may he rest in peace.  That said, I really didn&#039;t care for this show; thought it was very self-indulgent.  You and Leah, on the other hand, put a lot of hard and somewhat dangerous work in; you should have gotten it again.]]></description>

Mary Kahn, the ONLY appeal to go to these events is to be able to tell the MAA that you are a &quot;participating Scn&quot; which is one of the qualificaitons to getting onto and staying on your OT Levels.  Now they make you have a ticket to get in and they register WHO has which ticket, so they track who goes to these events and who doesn&#039;t.  And if you don&#039;t show, you can expect to have to answer for that at your next 6 month check at Flag.  And if they don&#039;t think you&#039;re participating enough, they put you in a room and  make you watch many back to back events, all about 3 hrs each.  Oh and on top of that they may make you do conditions on it.]]></description>

I&#039;ll add that for the same reason I&#039;m sad AND angry about the money I gave to the Idle M&#039;orgs and the IAS. If it had done anyone some actual good, I wouldn&#039;t mind. The total was not an insignificant sum to me,. But although I could certainly use that money today, I don&#039;t  really don&#039;t need it. The point was - is -  that I just threw it away. It could have done good,  It didn&#039;t.   It helped NO ONE.  Fucking cult.]]></description>
