    The Maknews Fork

    Well, I have seen many community groups develop differing ideologies and subsequently breaking into sub-communities over time. A good example is the many online Linux versions available. Everyone feels they have developed the best or most appropriate version.

    For me, this forum represents a differing ideology to Maknews in the sense that the forum has no singular controller. Decisions are democratically made and the singular objective is that Macedonians are the highest priority and WE are here to explore and celebrate OUR identity.

    Personally, I will be supportive of Maknews and feel that it was a wonderful way to meet so many fabulous people online and learn and share Macedonian issues.

    Some might feel that there is a dilution of potential for each forum. I say it is a chance to spread the Macedonian message even further. I hope we both do well.

    Good said Risto, this is exactly as it is, MakNews is a great place but it has taken a certain direction, MacedonianTruth is here to redeem the lost glory of the old days. Macedonia for the Macedonians, we fight the same fight! I ako Gospod saka ke bideme zaedno, Vardar, Prin i Egej.

        We needed a place that will be a bit more hard on the Greeks spreading their propaganda and a place where the Macedonians can work together for a better a brigther future. The more forums, sites etc we have the better for all Macedonians. It's a good thing.

          Exactly.
          Let the Greeks bring their best game here.
          I (amongst others) have the fortune of having very simple facts that they have extreme difficulty answering.

            I still visit Maknews for the news, and alot of good has come from that website, but I think a place that isn't owned by one person offers something new. And the more forums we have the better I think to explore ideas.

            I am looking foward to contributing in whatever way I can to this place, and I'm looking foward to exploring some ideas about the Macedonians in a way that contributes something new to what we know about them.

                      Maknews is in its death throes.
                      Its censorship was extreme and was unable to cope with opposing views.
                      I hope the admins do not fall into the same style of censorship, as without freedom of expression, this site will die as well.

                        Alas RTG, In time I also will bring my simple facts that could not be answered by the scholars on Maknews and resulted in bannings.

                          Well this forum was setup for less censorship, but one thing will not tolerate, is not calling us by our rightful names.

                          So no, "slavmacedonians", "slavobulgarians" or anything in between or similar to that.

                          Only Macedonians. In the same way we will respect you in calling you a Greek, and not a Prosfyga or something similar to that.

                          If you have a hard time dealing with that.......Then you might as well leave.

                            Can we use the term Greek Macedonia, etc?
                            Can we use the United Nations acronym Fyrom?

                              No FYROM here, I prefer if you use the name the "Greek part of Macedonia".
