The posts are still disappearing. Please moderators and Forum Admin, something drastic has to be done.
OP and brethren, this forum is long past its heydays and the reason for this being the after so many years it has lost it novelty. There seem to be no new topic to debate and inquire on nowadays. Almost every aspect has been covered. Unless someone shed new light on the existing topics, threads would not run beyond a couple of posts.
Another important fact that must not be overlooked is the departure of intelligent members like Edip Yuksel, Farouk Peru, Ayman and other popular, respected Qur'an alone voices whose presence attracted more Muslims to the forum. At the height of the forum, these brothers were regular posters but today they've vanished with none filling the vacuum left behind.

Peace,
I can only say why I very rarely post or read posts on this site. The general attitude of the participants of the forum is not to think or evolve, but to seek verification of invested dogmas, generally reasoning is rarely expressed or presented, instead, the uninvestigated and authority based mindset dominates, this leads those who have taken the time to actually investigate to become despondent, contemptuous and uninterested in further casting pearls before what prove themselves by their replies to be swine. -

In general,one staying away or rarely posting is a worse situation towards changing the attitudes of participants.
Is n it better to increase your posts of "changing attitude materials" to eradicate dogmas?I just think sometimes we do the wrong thing thinking it is the right thing?
Not that it matters,but a lot of things we do and say do not make sense..
GOD bless.

I couldn't agree more, most people here even the veterans looked like running on treadmill they clocked up a lot of mileage, but they got nowhere. Perhaps, time to restart progressive muslims site?

I think the golden age of forums is over. Now the facebook, twitter and others have taken over and that is a real pity because the kind of exchange that can take place in those new places is no match to the kind of exchange that can be had in forum. On the other hand, those newer settings are more appropriate to rally people who more or less agree and do not so much allow a sustained exchange.
In some respects well maganed forums are like a free school. I have learnt too much in froums not to be grateful for it. A pity but there it is.

not agree with this .... if your a real truthsearcher ( in general) you wont/dont check the design of the site , but you are going to check the information on his riablity.. no need for fancy things .... not relevant... check the Quran not one picture or drawings in it ....
May Allah Guide Us To The Straight Path...

For instance one could make online quran here which have footnotes linked to forumposts About the word in the ayat.You know what i mean like a link for example you read an aya "bismi" "Allah"...and there is a link to the word bismi and Allah.
Or when a subject is over and over discussed it should be qualified to get in a wikilexicon.
