• 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

From here.

We're looking for a few good people!

For those of you who actually do read the CF rules for fun ;) , you will have noticed that the number of conciliators has been increased from 5 to 10. This means I have 5 jobs to fill.

Here is the job description:

Quote:
10. Ombudsman and Conciliators

10.1 Creation of the Ombudsman and the Conciliators
There is created the position of Ombudsman. The Ombudsman is not a member of Staff and does not have authority to take actions designated in CF Rule 7.2. The Ombudsman serves at the pleasure of the CEO. The Ombudsman has authority to designate ten members, who are not members of CF Staff, to serve as assistants, who must be approved by the CEO. These assistants and the Ombudsman constitute the Conciliators. The members of the Conciliators serve at the pleasure of the Ombudsman.

10.2 Duties and Authority of the Conciliators
The Conciliators will provide assistance to any member at any stage of the appeals process. Such assistance may include, but is not limited to, explaining CF Rules, explaining CF procedures, drafting appeals, serving as an intermediary between Staff and members, serving as an intermediary between members, arranging settlement of disputes, and submitting reports to the CEO.

10.3 Duties and Authority of the Ombudsman
In addition to the duties and authority of all members of the Conciliators, the Ombudsman shall consult with the CEO regarding any appeals, which, in the Ombudsman's opinion, require the attention or intervention of the CEO.
We are looking for people who demonstrate Christian love in their interactions with others, are articulate, persuasive, persistent, diplomatic, fair-minded, and willing to see situations from more than one perspective.

All candidates must be approved by Erwin, and per Erwin's statement earlier this year, all candidates must be Christians who qualify to post in the Christians-Only forums.

I am calling for both recommendations and applications. If you think someone (or more than 1 person) would be really good at this, please recommend them and encourage them to apply. If you are interested, please apply.

For application, simply PM me and explain why you would make a good conciliator.

I am looking for a cross-section of people from different backgrounds, so if you know someone who would be great who only posts in a few specific forums, please link them to to this post.

I hope to hear from you!

~* goes to clean out her PM box *~

Thanks!

Joy
CF Ombudsman

I'm posting this message in both the TE and Creationist subforums in order to help Joykinds get the word out that she is actively recruiting for new Conciliators.

If you are the least bit curious or interested, I encourage you to contact Joykins, the Ombudsman.
