Have somebody check to make sure it doesn't say ex-member. The nazi, anal mods over there probably banned you. IP: Logged |

I just wish there was another site that offered what they do as far as the charts. Mathmatically they are supposedly the most accurate and their navigation is good but their writing is so poor. It's vague and pessimistic and preachy, cup half empty. I think that's why nobody likes their paid readings.IP: Logged |

Their paid readings don't even state the aspects that they're talking about! So annoying.IP: Logged |

He's the reason for the spike in number of members here. He's the reason I left over there. There is such an oppressive atmosphere and nobody will speak up. They just go along and take his and his little suck-up friend side (can't remember the guys name that always joins him) until he messes with THEM and then usually just leave or get banned. If people would support each other and present a united front before it comes to that point maybe the owners would fix the situation. This forum is much better but could use more features like they have at astro.IP: Logged |

I actually got kicked off Astro forum for being sexually harassed. when l asked Alois to do something about it, he basically told me to F*** off!So l had no choice but to expose the guy who harassed me by posting his PMs to me on a thread. Result: I got kicked off and he got to stay!!!! :O I was gobsmacked but quickly realised how happy l was not to be under his regime anymore! IP: Logged |

You know he actually made a veiled threat to reveal my real ID? I think he posted where I was from or my IP or something in a public thread. It was over something so trivial too. It's been so long I can't remember, probably the Britney thread, but yeah, that dude has issues. He gets way too personally involved and takes sides on things he has no business in. IP: Logged |

Why didn't you just block the guy from sending you PMs???I've never had an issue with ANYONE in the forum over there, the knowledge that is shared is second to none and I've had some great advice and learned so much. Its not a place for the beginner and I appreciate that, I still can't beleive how much I've learned- I didn't even post there for a few months until I felt I wouldn't embarrass myself I wouldn't pay for their readings as I don't think a computer can take the place of a human being no matter how complex the programming... I have noticed its been getting a bit frivolous (less astrology based) over there in the last few months, but I guess that seems to happen everywhere... I think that with the amount of free, extremely high quality resources provided there, Alois (and the others) can do whatever they want with their forum. IP: Logged |

Hi Ozmeg,I did and the guy started posting on THREADS, being extremely seedy and malicious. He obviously had women issues, which is what l think Alois's problem is too. He thinks he's the re-incarnation of hitler lol IP: Logged |

They certainly CAN do whatever they want. If that happens to be running off some of their best members so be it. Not that I was one of those, but they have lost a LOT of very knowledgeable, long-time members over the last 6 mos. due to the mods.IP: Logged |
