I don't personally see the value of having conciliators in an open system, as ordinary members will be able to act in that capacity.

Anyone can provide that service and should be encouraged to. I think that having a crew of conciliators around would provide a resource for those who don't know who else to ask for help.

I agree with Joykins.

Some members are painfully shy and would rather not fight a report or even a banning, even if they did not have any malice or evil intent. Their words just came out wrong. We do have a lot of non-native English speakers who struggle.

I won't be able to answer all questions.

Database issues will be addressed under stage 2 - technology - trust me, that stage is going to be very very very radical - wait for it.


Erwin, someone just pmed me asking if I know what the stage 2 changes will be, which of course I don't. But I was wondering if you'll give us a hint or two beforehand in case we'd like to save stuff.....sort of writing in the dark as I have no clue what you can mean. But you know.....say you were going to clear out old threads or something.....

When a non Christian comes into a church they really aren't there in a freeform way.
Also:
What is the new definition of "all Christians"?

I think that forcing unity this side of heaven where unity does not exist is a recipe for disaster. I have seen it in other forums. I hope I am wrong.
I just hope there isn't a mass exodus from CF because of the hard feelings that will no doubtedly result.

Again, I pray that I am wrong.
My 2 cents worth...

Who will decide which are important? *sigh* as much as I'd like certain things to be out in the open . . . . I'd rather they all go down the memory hole than confidential information be exposed.

We also have a lot of native English speakers who struggle to find the right words, and the right way to convey them without ...well..without disastrous consequences. *__*

You know?
