I once was aggressively called "Guiri" by a drunken Spanishman. Ironically, he was the one who was being uncouth; I was a perfect gentleman. — Jamal
The site has been down for a while today and I don’t know if we’re safe and sound yet. It got me thinking we should have somewhere online to gather if that happens again. — Jamal
So, what are some good alternative sites?
"The Philosophy Forum" evidently only accepts "invited" new members.
And "Online Philosophy Club," which is presided over by "Eckhart Aurelius Hughes" (formerly known as "Scott" :D ), is absolutely flooded with advertisement banners (even between posts).
I'm still waiting for some alternative suggestions that will be better than ILP. — Philosophy Now Forum
That made me wonder about the criteria for being accepted? I didn't have to go through that process and can't find information on 'how to join'... — Amity
The Philosophy Forum is now invitation-only, but anyone who wants to take part in philosophical discussions and who can follow the site guidelines is very welcome to join.
If you'd like us to send you an invitation, send an email to infoatthephilosophyforumdotcom telling us something about yourself, why you'd like to join, and what you're interested in.
Here we go again... — javi2541997
I would hope if and when there is anything substantial to report, then Jamal will notify TPF members. — Amity
We have now been upgraded to the medium plan, so this shouldn't happen again. — Jamal
Add infoatthephilosophyforumdotcom as a contact/preferred sender or to your email client's whitelist. One of those should do the trick. — Outlander
Get involved in philosophical discussions about knowledge, truth, language, consciousness, science, politics, religion, logic and mathematics, art, history, and lots more. No ads, no clutter, and very little agreement — just fascinating conversations.
