I was merely trying to make a point that while someone can come into a very public thread and make very public accusations, those who the accusations are being leveled against cannot in good conscience defend themselves without breaking confidence, whether between them and the member, or just the confidentiality agreement that comes with being on staff.
Personally, I believe that if a member chooses to accuse someone publically, then the staff should have the right to air what caused the grievance in the first place. So I don't hide behind any "confidence" rule - it's actually in place for the member's protection, not mine. You can look at what I've done here with a magnifying glass and you wouldn't find anything circumspect.

Guys, go have fun in it. Enjoy the site. Go fellowship with your fellow Christians, or debate your favorite topic, or go have fun with the atheists  . All of this bickering and accusations are just counter productive.
If any of you have a suggestion or question based on the Op then please state it but please lay off the negativity.

I would tell members to have this "dancing ban can" ready to put in their Avatars as soon as they are notified, so that at least others will know what happened to them when they suddenly get "raptured" from CF......Just a thought

___ YES
___ NO
I shrank your post to a more manageable type size.
Steve, everyone that has ever been banned has been given the opportunity to discuss the ban in the s/c box (at least since I became theo admin and had visibility of the forum). Many go there to accuse, fight, belittle, and generally not take responsibility for anything that they have done. Others go there and discuss the issue civily and respectfully. Many of those have been successful in their appeals. There is always two sides to an issue.
Disclaimer: This is not a premise nor am I presenting an argument.

I was just thinking that myself.
__________________ If pregnancy presents a challenge, do we as a society rise to the challenge by dispensing with the child? And when a pregnancy comes at a difficult time, what is the worthier response? Do we surround mother and child with protection and love, or do we hold out to her the cold comfort of a trip to an abortionist? Where is our true character as a nation to be seen - let's ask ourselves this question: Where is our true character to be seen, in an adoptive home, or in an abortion clinic? Who are we? Who are we America? That question deserves an answer. Bob Casey Sr. To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 10 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.

The 2nd one was just for a Week......something is out of whack here......Perhaps I was given a 1 week ban by the Mod so I COULDN'T appeal it? Members may appeal Forum-specific Bans (FSBs), infractions, and bans resulting from infractions. Members may not appeal bans of a week or less, which include cool-down bans and bans resulting from warnings. Members may not appeal to the RT regarding Executive bans issued from the Advisors. Only the Advisors may repeal Executive bans.
