Whether you change it or not is a non issue to me - knowing that it offends people i would think should be an issue to you especially being a staff member on a christian board - but its the attitude that it doesnt matter what christians here think of you which backs my point that non believers dont belong on staff here.

I'd say the same thing if non christians were complaining too.

I answer to God not non believers. This is a christian board not a non christian one.

Lastly go check out complaints ive made in the complaint area and youll see where the things ive stated have happened have happened unless of course only admins are allowed there. Its been happening and happening a lot.

It shouldnt be offensive. She cant change her name every time somebody thinks it is offensive. She is a staff and you shouldnt be speaking down to her like this. Your attitude is worse than hers...

It's funny to notice the difference in tone people use to non-Christian mods vs. Christian mods.
There is really no difference. If a Christian mod had that username, I would still tell them it was offensive.

Thank you for making my point - she is a non believer staff member and you are expecting me to "revere" her just because shes a staff member. Her screename is offensive period and i will say so - you acting as if she deserves special privledge because shes staff is another good reason non believers do not belong on staff on a christian board.

Come on, A4T. You don't care what people think of you & won't change for them, either, will you? ISTM, I've seen you say if you're offended, it's your problem, not mine to other people. I may be mistaken about that, but it's an attitude I think I've seen in some of your posts.

Why do you ask someone else to do something you wouldn't do?

Is that loving your neighbor as yourself?

If you have an issue with someone's username, the course of action to take is to go to that person's profile and report it as a possible violation, and let the staff take it from there. This thread is not the place for such discussions.

In addition, if you have an issue with non-Christian mods, please join the discussion about Non-Christian moderators in the DR forum. Again, this thread is not for that discussion.

um how is it a threat to tell a staff member to go check an area only staff can see?

Are you trying to cause trouble would be a better question by insituating evil where there is none?
No I mean it wasn't necessarily a threat but you were saying like "Yeah, things that I suggest happen end up happening, you know. So I'm going to suggest something and you're going to get in trouble."

I dont know, that's just how I saw it. Sorry. :)

Crazy liz ive never said any such thing in my life - i have seen you make up plenty though enough said.
I believe you if you say I'm mistaken. I've seen a lot of Christians say things like that, which is why I said I might be mistaken. My memory might be faulty, and I might have associated someone else's post with you.

I apologize.

Just as we have the freedom to utterly reject his games and playing mini-pastor/theologian.
Actually you really don't. He is the site owner. That is the end of the issue. If he sets policies some don't like, no one is obligated to stay.

There's enough that has happened around here and gotten covered up that I understood exactly what she meant. I've also noticed threads being moved without mod hats. Posts used to get removed without notice, and I'm not surprised if it is happening again. Now that nobody below Admin level can see what's happening, it's easy to cover stuff up.

Once Lee added the rule against talking about mod misbehavior with anyone but the RT, it was an open invitation to shenanigans and cover-ups. The mods who do stuff like that don't want their actions exposed, so they ask for rules against complaining.

If I had a spare rep, I'd rep you Tonks.

Somebody, give this man a rep!!

Atheist in the Christian Theology forum arguing about apologetics :doh:
They don't have a right to be there arguing for their point of view?

No, I'm not going to rep Tonks for his comments. I find them elitist and not very Christian. The point of Christianity is not to cloister ourselves away from the world but to be welcoming to everyone - as Jesus was in His time.
