::You can try contacting Klingschor and TheRationalizer or post a message on the CEMB forum (the CEMB has a [http://councilofexmuslims.com/wiki/en/Main_Page wiki] too as you know). I know Klingschor made a post a long time ago on the CEMB forum wanting to create a new site. Maybe you can get together with these people and do something. The more websites there are for criticism of Islam the better. I'm pretty sure these people can arrange for some kind of tech help. I know TheRationalizer's email so let me know if you want to email him. They're both also from the UK and have good Youtube channels with lots of subscribers so they're somewhat accomplished and passionate about criticism of Islam. Unless one works alone they have to work through differences of opinions with other people so that will always be there when others are involved. | ::You can try contacting Klingschor and TheRationalizer or post a message on the CEMB forum (the CEMB has a [http://councilofexmuslims.com/wiki/en/Main_Page wiki] too as you know).

::No one can be stopped from leaving the site or deciding not to contribute anymore. That's their wish. I've tried to be fair for example I have tried to prevent wrongful blocks and give editors more opportunities. I believe everyone has equal rights in deciding what should happen on the site. After observing that there were too many intense conflicts starting to take place I worked hard on thinking about how to create some [http://wikiislam.net/wiki/WikiIslam:Core_Principles#Community community guidelines] so people stop arguing over minor issues and instead focus on the content of the site. I added a nice [http://wikiislam.net/wiki/User:Axius quote] to my user page about this. You made those community guidelines from that long document I sent in email and you can tell how much I was bothered by conflicts to have written so much on the topic. But when someone maintains that kind of approach it usually means they are done with their activism and want to slow down or take a long break or just stop (which is fine but others shouldn't be held responsible for it in any way). I don't want to debate over this for long but yes if you want to leave that's your wish. Good luck in whatever you do in the future. All of us editors on the site and its thousands of visitors are very thankful to you for the work you've done and you're welcome to come back at any time. --[[User:Axius|Axius]] <span style="font-size:88%">([[User_talk:Axius|talk]] <nowiki>|</nowiki> [[Special:Contributions/Axius|contribs]])</span> 17:00, 31 July 2014 (PDT) | ::No one can be stopped from leaving the site or deciding not to contribute anymore.

:::Well, we're obviously going to disagree on this, and I'm sure we could rant at each other all day long about what went wrong here, but I have no desire to do that and I'm sure you don't either. About Klingschor and TheRationalizer; lol come on Ax, be serious :) As far as I'm concerned, those guys are dishonest and part of the bigger problem. Damn privileged westerners who think they know it all. Get one of them to admit that lying is a religious part of Islam that allows Muslims to lie to non-Muslims ([[Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars:Lying and Deception|just like the authentic Sunni sources prove]]) and I'll take my words back. Until then.... You know I still have respect for all practicing Muslims. These guys do what they do because they believe what they do is from their god and is the right thing to do. These other guys only prove you don't need to believe in a sky fairy to be full of shite. [[User:Sahab|--Sahab]] ([[User talk:Sahab|talk]]) 17:24, 31 July 2014 (PDT) |
