They can request and form their own forums for their own group. Moderation will be decentralised according to each forum/category - members that the forum members respect get voted to be their mods. Mods usually only have power to moderate their own forums. Reports go into forums that are subforums of these forums/categories. It's a massive restructure that I need to embark on.

The aim is to make this a true community where people have the power to ultimately moderate themselves.

I have resigned from staff. It has been an honor and privilege to be a servant here on CF and sharing in this ministry.

I'm happy that some of you are happy. Right now, my heart is filled with sorrow and sadness, but no bitter or anger... and so I walk away. Praying for CF.

God's Peace,

Debbie

the Nicene creed is not biblical, its human doctrine not divine truth.

For Obvious reasons. In America, criminals have the right to confront their accusers. Why can't we?

...god, does everyone think that non-believers are chanelling...Hitler or something? Some other evil genius? We're not trying to take over CF. We're not trying to wipe out the christians. Seriously. We're not that diabolical...and we don't put THAT much time and effort into causing trouble on a freakin message board.

I disagree, Saucy. Catholics and Protestants have had a self-moderating experimental thread which is now in version three. We have self-moderated very well. We have had to call in moderators on a couple of occasions, but for the most part, we all agreed to be civil and loving towards one another. We have learned alot about each other.

Debbie, I am sorry to see you have chosen to resign.

I am neither happy or unhappy about the changes.

I just feel that we need to stop and pray, and figure out what the Holy Spirit is leading us to do.

The fact is, CF worked in the way it was split up yesterday.

Sure, too many rules.

But they could have been simplified / deleted / whatever, and for CF to continue as it was - working for the good of non-believer and believer alike.

I have absolutely no fear whatsoever of "debating" with non-believers. But in the end it is the Holy Spirit of course. Debate can only go so far.

But as has been said, there is no-where now for people young in the faith or those who want to rest and be encouraged and edified to go.

Instead it could turn into just a bombardment of posts disrupting threads - and nothing can be done about it because everyone is accepted as a Christian. All views are welcome, so to mod a thread will be a non-job really.

Do we need dictators or do we need moderators who enforces the rules within reason?

No, technically, it is a board owned by a Christian who has has opened it to all religions and whose membership is predominately Christian. That is not the same thing.

I don't think anyone is worried about you who are here now, it's those who are invited w/o proper dress.

agreed, those preaching we should go to war to bar the doors, keeping out the least, the last, and the lost are dark forces indeed

And those preaching gay marriage and advocating abortion and putting truth to the vote are the great bringers of light .

As I've said, I think Erwin has purposely sown the seeds of destruction with this~he's tired of this place.
