Does anything useful actually get discussed at the other site? The last time I popped in, it had been more than a week since the last post.

You must have been doing something wrong.  I am on the other site everyday and there are a lot of posts in all the upper fora, except perhaps FE Believers.

Will you and Parsifal lose ultimate ownership of this forum in case of a split?
No. The forum will remain on a server owned and controlled by Parsifal (either where it currently is or a new VPS dedicated to hosting FES). While we want to build this merger on the atmosphere of mutual trust, I feel that we've taken sufficient precautions in case things go wrong.
If anything does ever go wrong, I might perhaps be the first volunteer to meet him and discuss our concerns:

Are we surprised? Daniel is involved.
That's how far the horizon is, not how far you can see.

If my sources are correct (PizaaPlanet), we are waiting on Daniel to move the forums to a seperate server.

Well, it's looking like a rival flat earth group is forming around Eric Dubay who is decidedly more energetic and definitely critical of Daniel Shenton. I noticed that Dubay has another kind of demon, a different weakness: hard core crude anti-semitism which is unfortunate, but he's obviously a better researcher than Daniel. 

Possibly the competition of two sincere flat earth groups with very distinctive followings would be beneficial to the overall cause of scientific truth. I suggest absorbing and benefiting from Dubay's research without of course imbibing his error or joining with him. Keep the best - leave the rest. I perceive it is very important to the future of this forum to be familiar with and keep abreast of Eric DuBay's and Matthew Boylan's publicly shared information. This community is more agnostic and politically left than the crowd forming around Dubay, but the posts and content of his forum are vastly better than Daniel's. This forum as of now has at least one advantage in that it is significantly better organized than DuBay's ifers.boards.net forum.  From what pizza planet says, it does not sound like Daniel has succeeded in rigging this forum to degenerate into a travesty, and that is good.

If my suspicions are correct, Daniel is waiting on his handler for the go-ahead.

I wish. We've last heard from Daniel on 26/02/2015 and Wilmore on 05/03/2015. I promise I'll post any updates here should there be anything to update people on, but right now... well, there is nothing.

I figured that was the issue.  Thanks for the update.

Yet more evidence that Daniel is stuck in a black hole and from his point of reference we are all moving at the speed of light.

I am in favor of this 110%.
If we are having a debate and you resort to using insults and ad hominem fallacies then I will consider that a win.  You have been warned.

Dionysios,
I don't know whether what you assert of Mr. Dubay is true. If you wouldn't mind perhaps supporting this assertion, although it is not related to this topic. I dislike unsupported statements.

I was banned from IFERS for similar asking for support on assertions (on a FE related matter), hardly worthy of banning but I must respect that every house has their rules! I registered there today, and was on for 30 minutes prior to the being struck down by the ban hammer.

What I gained from that experience is that whatever I posted could not be reconciled by a response and I'll leave it at that.

That is indeed a likely possibility. We can't do anything in Daniel's absence, and he doesn't appear to be responding to communication, even from Wilmore.

Obviously, a lot has changed since the first version of the reunification proposal was written. In the hypothetical event of Daniel's return, we would likely not be willing to make as many concessions as in the past.

You'd never be able to get anything done that relied on Daniel. You may have to wait literally years as reunification has proven.

I'm not going to harp on about how this was obvious and I said it hundred times. Let's just move on. We have a better set up here anyway and we don't need Daniel. Besides, he'd make us go back to his yucky logo. :P
