• 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.

Are these forums always this slow?

To any veterans out there: Is the speed (or lack thereof) I've been experiencing since I've joined these forums normal, or is this an abnormal occurrence?

Hi dsrohe!
Welcome to CF, in answer to your question, no the forums are not usually this slow. They should be back to normal soon.

Hi I’m Araminta, but you can call me Minty. I’m a CF Angel and I’d like to welcome you to the forums
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I know that at first glance this forum may seem huge, but don’t worry, it seems that way now, but the more you explore, the smaller it gets (honest ).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~​
First of all, allow me to apologise if you are having trouble posting or if posting is slow. At the moment CF is having server problems and it is also in the middle of an upgrade (as yet, it is uncertain how long this will take).
~~~~~
Please believe me when I say that you are not alone in feeling frustrated, we all do. I would also like to ask you to please be patient and bear with us. This will be sorted as soon as possible.
~~~~~
In the meantime, please feel free to browse (well, as much as you can) and I look forward to seeing you around the forums in the near future ​
~~~~~~~~~~
In the meantime, here are a few links that you may find useful (just click the blue text).
~~~~~
New Members Intros why not come and introduce yourself (I promise we don’t bite ).
~~~~~~~~~~
Once you’ve done that, why not get the feel of how to post by playing some games in the Blessings Exchange or Recreation Room. I can highly recommend Restoredsoul’s Blessing Thread for Newbies , you can earn more blessings than normal and you may even win an item for your CF character
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After that you could have a look at one of the below links, I’m sure that you’ll find something to interest you:
~~~~~~~~~~
Life Stages Forum
Congregation Forum
If you fancy getting stuck into a debate try Discussions and Debate (beware, tempers can flare here).
~~~~~~~~~~
If you would like to request prayer, or say prayers for others (which is always much appreciated) go to the Prayer Room
~~~~~
If you have any problems at all feel free to visit Angel HQ,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I hope you enjoy your time here and I look forward to seeing you around the forums in the future.
~~

~~
Minty. xx​

Welcome to Christian Forums. Sorry, but the images are not loading on CF right now. Hope the slowness doesn't stop you from coming back. I think the techies will get it straightened out sometime. You can temporarily shut off the graphics here by going to the control panel/options, and that will speed things up a lot.
