• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Annoying pop-up ads

Does anybody know how to shut off these ubiquitous etopia ads that constantly pop up with every...single...thread you open up on this site? I get so tired of constantly having to delete them in order to just read threads in the forum. It's irritating and frustrating.

They started with me awhile back. I contacted staff and they seemed to have gotten the problem fixed for me. You might contact them and see if they can help. As long as you have been here I’m surprised they have not given you a supporter title yet.

Are you on Windows or a Mac or Linux?

You can download Firefox and block the pop up ads.

I'm on a Mac and use safari. I haven't had any issues.

You are a supporter as well. I assume it’s because you have given service to CF being on the Angels Team. I used to be a moderator back in the day so I got the gift of being a site supporter which prevents the annoying ads. (And believe me, they are insanely annoying)! :eek: I may be mistaken but I thought some were given that status because of longtime loyalty to the site? I don’t know though, staff would have to answer that.

I'm not sure, either.

I had to shell out cash for mine. A whopping ten or fifteen dollars. I've never seen a single ad since then.

Do you still have to pay per month? Or if you subscribe once you'll always have the 'site supporter' perks?

I think it’s just a one time payment.
