Hi. I’m the Vastly Overpriced Webmaster (VOPW).
After about 1.5 weeks of transferring and copying files, editing DNS records, and banging my head against the desk, I let go and let God. That’s right, God took over this webserver, and HEALED it of all its malware, spam and whatnot. All in the matter of 7 perfect and complete minutes. All I had to do was give Melvin a large love offering of $7k, which he told me was the perfect love offering.
Riiiight….
So, the actual story is: I used the talents that the Lord has given and a lot of late nights, research, e-mails, phone calls, etc., and figured out how to ‘redeploy’ the pp.org webserver. Everyone please read what’s in this blog, as well as show it to your friends. There is a lot of good information in it. It is why I have worked hard to keep this site down as little as possible. Please keep Melvin and this site in your prayers.
God Bless and have a great day!
You’re in my prayers…
Melvin and VOPW, now pay a sizable love offering to Steve Munsey. If you pay in the next ten minutes you’ll still catch the window for the “double portion” and also ensure an angel keeps watch over the web server
.
It’s good to have this blog back and I have a question. Is “Will Jones” a relative of “Melvin Jones”?
Will Jones is the brother of Basketball Jones.
…who is the cousin of love jones.
No, he’s the low-budget spin-off since Melvin left. Its like Bruce Li replacing Bruce Lee.
am not a good singer but…welcomeee back welcomee back welcome backkkkk!!!! you know from the show “Welcome Back Kotter”….
Welcome back! We’ve missed you.
WOOOOOOHOOOOO!!!!! You KNOW Gary was (Melvin) JONZZZZZZZZIN’
Mel,
You can’t keep the doors of this church closed that long without people getting suspicious. I mean before too long someone is going to wonder if you’ve “taken the money” and ran. Well to be honest, I’m just starting to wonder where my tithes have been going….hmmm? I wasn’t sure but the bottom of that private jet that flew over my head last week did appear to have the initials PP on the bottom. But I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt. Besides, it could have been Prophetess Paula.
Welcome Back Melvin!!! I thought the pimps took you away - LOL!!!
Welcome back Mr.Jones.
Wow! I’m really glad to have the site up and running again. I’ll be praying for the VOWM - LOL!
Welcome Back Melvin - you were truly missed!! IC’s site with the nuts on parade kept me going….
Mel,
Never doubted for a minute that you would be back on the warpath…Welcome back my man…I was suffering from withdrawal, but now I can get my daily fix again!!! (Just kidding!!!) Great to see everyone posting and discussing again, and I look forward to what God will do in the coming months…Awesome recommendation of Dever’s book by the way…I think it will be a blessing to many…As I always say, keep up the good work and most importantly KEEP IT COMIN’!!!!! God will never forget your labor of love…
Soli Deo Gloria,
R4C
Welcome back! Now may the “latter rain be greater than the fomer rain.”
I thought for a minute since JHB proclaimed that “I’am Still The Man” that he put hits out on all his Haters and did a reinactment of a scence from the 5th season of The WIRE……close your eyes Melvin and take a deep breath it will be over in a minute
thats a whole other story…. my goodness, its so sad. so many people have called me since that service. i am so glad that the Lord showed to get out of there…
by the way am the anonymous singer of welcome back, got so excited forgot to type my name, so officially I say welcome back Mr. Melvin boy did I miss “pp”…
Oh, I am SO glad you’re back. I was beginning to think it was my fault — the day I linked to you was the day the site started having… let’s just call ‘em issues.
(Just a side note: have you looked into the possibility that you’re being tormented by a territorial spirit? Maybe you need to switch to Blogger… or just buss out the anointin’ oil! HEAL!)
I KNEW it Melvin………..it’s Laura’s fault.
OOOOOOOOooooooooo girl.It’s gonna take a MIGHTY love offering to life the curse off ya this time.
Now listen, can’t nobody put no curse on me! I’m a blood-bought, sanctified, Holy-Ghoss-filled… Wait, all I have to do to get de-cursed is write a check? Well, where do I sign?
Glad you are back…very few voices for truth as is!!!
Glad everything’s back to normal. I’ve missed my daily “fix”.
HI ROBIN!! *smile*
meeeeeellllllllviiiiiilllllllle!!!!!
Angela,
I just left a comment on your blog that I tried to leave a few weeks ago but was unsuccessful. I think maybe it was because I was doing something wrong??? Anyway, I saved it so that when I got a chance to send you a message through PP, I could let you know that I reposted it. I placed it under the “Happy New Year” topic, because I wanted you to read it like I wrote it. I just entered it again and it looks like it went through this time…I’d love to hear your response, and I’ll be looking on the website for it…
Solus Christus,
R4C
hi r4c,
i got your message and left you a reply thanks for stopping by, and thanks to melville for giving me a shout out. :o)
mav
So, is there ever going to be a time when all of the comments from many of the postings come back….cause I’m still wondering why many of the posts on the site are no longer complete or even existing…
GaryV!!!!! Happy New Year, my friend. I’ve missed you. I’ve been reading the site when I have a chance, but school and work keep me pretty.
I hope that everyone has a great 2008.
Peace & blessings to each of you.
ru
Hi Robin!! All my best wishes are always with you as well……I hope we see more of you around here. School and work taking away from PP.Org??
Get your priorities right woman!!
Welcome back, you were truly missed. I was playing the conspiracy theory card and thought the pimps had shut you down. I thought maybe you changed your web address so I googled you, which gave me a lot to read in your absents, because I was amazed at how scared many of the pimps and their stables are about your website, but thanks for exposing them, keep up the good work.
Hi Melvin, glad to see your server is back up and running. PP was definitely missed.
Welcome back Melvin–I have missed our fighting! lol
(MN: Me too!! )
lol
Alright Melly Mel! Back in black (like Will Smith- reformed truth defenders). You had me worried there for a second. I mean, I felt like you didn’t want to answer my emails, like you didn’t have time for the ‘little’ people anymore (isn’t that what happens when you make it big)? You never did let me know if I could be your armour bearer (I got a bottle of armourall for your tires so when you get your Bentley from the sheeple you’ll be good to go!) For real though, it’s weird not having PP around, but the internet is much cooler with it!
Hello again, Mr. Jones:
Welcome back to the ether.
Perhaps, a bit “off-topic,” but how many Melvinites are aware of this tidbit?
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml;jsessionid=0K0QT5RXJOJYHQFIQMGCFFOAVCBQUIV0?xml=/news/2007/12/30/wbhutto130.xml
After reading this news article, I have quit shouting “Long live Dickkopf” at the office water cooler every morning.
Hey Dickkopf, not that it really matters, but before we get back onto the topic at hand, I was just wondering about how you got your “name” … it means “fat head” in German. Can’t help but to chuckle when I see it. (By the way, I call myself “BooBoo’s Dad” because “BooBoo” is the name of my little poodle.) - - - Welcome Back Melvin … I also missed coming here every day, and I echo all the kind sentiments of the other “Melvinites!”
Guten Tag, “BooBoo’s Dad”:
Dickkopf bedeutet hard head auf Englisch.
Do give BooBoo some scratches under her/his ears, and do not let a day go by without some scripture study.
This site may assist you in your ruminations:

Thank you for caring about a nobody like me.
John 5:39.
Love,
Peter
Melvin, I apologize for my last post to Dickkopf being partly in German. After I had already submitted it, it occured to me that writing in a foreign language here isn’t any different than the “shon-da-la-ro-bo-ba-ba-ka-ho-se-o” babble that the pimps spew all over their congregations … without a translation, it does not edify the body as a whole and should not be done. I shall from here on refrain from submitting such posts, and completely understand why it never got posted. Please accept my humble apologies. I have great respect for you, this site, and the other members because, like many of them, I owe my spiritual life to the information He has shown me here! Be assured I shall not speak out of order again!
(MN: Actually, it wasn’t a problem. In the activity to capture names and not show addresses, I may have accidentally killed the posting. I understood most of what you said. Don’t fret it. )
BooBoo’s Dad,
Vous devez soumettre à Melvin complètement. Toute résistance est futile.
To the estimable GaryV:
Anakanapanastan, natsanapanakana.
A nice palindrome, don’t you agree?
(By the way, all credit goes to Moe Howard, Larry Fine, and Curly Howard.)
And to my ears, the Stooges rendition certainly sounds better than your Spanish.
John 5:39.
Peter my dear lad…….my Spanish isn’t what it should be considering my gorgeous Hispanic wife. However, being a through and through French Canadian,my French is much better……..and what I wrote was in French.
Translation:
You must submit completely to Melvin. Resistance is futile
Hey,GaryV:
As I continually kneel at your seat of learning, my comment was just a dumb joke. Ich wusste, es war Französisch. Tut mir leid!
From now on, GaryV, straight down the line.
Love,
Peter
LOL!!! Peter, I love the sarcasm (kneel at my seat of learning
). Welcome aboard. You fit right in with the rest of us here!!
Hmmm . . . that ö was supposed to yield an “o umlaut.”
The word is Franzoesisch,/i>, and translated “French.”
So, “I knew it was French. I’m Sorry.”
Peter
Dickkopf, I have my keyboard set up to switch between English and German … I just toggle back and forth using a small icon on the task bar on the bottom right. For Vista (and XP?), just go to the control panel, and click on “Regional and Language Options”, then in the next window, click on the “Keyboards and Languages” tab at the top, then click on the “Change Keyboards” button. When the next window pops up, click on the “Add” button, scroll down and choose “German” and then “OK” … it should show you a keyboard showing where all the characters are. It will put an icon at the bottom on the task bar that says “EN” for English, and “DE” for German. Clicking on it will switch back and forth. The letters on the German keyboard aren’t all in the same places, so you’ll have to get used to that. Then you’ll be able to type in all of the umlauts and the Es-zett like this: Ää, Öö, Üü, and ß — Just make sure you switch it back to English, or you’ll end up with some wrong letters in some places! Hope that works for you!!
Hello, BooBoo’s Dad:
Yeah, should have thought of it.
In my MacBook, in System Preferences, International, then Input Menu, would you believe a keyboard setup for the “Cherokee Nation” language?; and for many other languages in the world, as well.
Just a thought on why it might be a good idea to actually memorize Scripture: check out Psalms 88:12.
More times than I can count, I wish I had a verse so I could apply Proverbs 25:11, but it’s difficult to declare God’s wonders in the darkness (mine), and His righteousness in the land of forgetfulness (mine, again). Now, I am setting that aright at http://www.biblememory.us/.
Thank you, BooBoo’s Dad.
I guess you’re right GV … I guess it does appear a bit “submissive!” Must be a remnant of my life-long training in a WoF church. By the way, I copied and pasted what you wrote into Google translate to find out what you said. At least these are REAL languages ordained by God for men to use! I’d wanted for decades to speak in tongues. Until I learned the truth about the babbling, I always thought something was wrong with me … some “hidden sin” or something that was causing God to withhold those “rivers of living water” from flowing from my belly (which I was taught was tongues). My exodus from the Word of Faith was difficult and frightening, as I had known nothing else but what they taught and thought many times I was giving up on God! I thought that the Word of Faith was God’s ONLY way and that anyone who believed differently was decieved … I see my old self all over many of the pimp defenders here, and only a few years ago I would have stood right beside many of them. Still, I find it difficult sometimes to shed the legalism I’d been taught for years … it seems like the WoFers always had some kind of “law” they shoved down our throats (law of prosperity, law of seed - time - and harvest, etc).
GV, I appreciate your humor and lack of legalism in the “rule” I broke as you “speak out of order” here
thereby demonstrating the freedom we have to be ourselves. I shall pardon your French!
Ich bin wieder ermutigt, auf deutsch zu schreiben, obwohl ich jetzt schon mal vergessen habe, was ich dem Dickkopf früher erzählte! But that’s okay. It was all good!
OK, BooBoo’s Dad:
According to the rules, this is an “nur Englisch“, oops, “English only” site.
No more German from me, until you would care to be a pen (web?) pal.
Jetzt, I am returning to: http://www.apuritansmind.com/PuritanWorship/McMahonGodFaddishNostalgic.htm
That article might do some serious damage to the Hip-Hop Mind!
Luke 22:42b
Love to you,
Peter.
