Banished to the Prog subforum!

It was just a misunderstanding about a report area rule. I made a mistake and apologized publicly for accusing her of violating it.

I was more concerned about the "You know, there aren't a lot of people that would be willing to do something like that" part.

A strange double post.

interesting observation....

What I meant by that is that at least I am honest enough to admit that I was wrong.

I think that alone should tell the person that I am not intentionally trying to hurt anyone. I just made a mistake. And I am willing to admit it.

There are a lot of people that would just continue to argue, even if they knew they were wrong, or would never apologize for causing pain.

But it is obvious that she hasn't forgiven me, because I sent her a PM to notify her of my public apology to which she never responded. That is quite sad.

I am more impressed by the individual who ceases from repeating the behavior.

Do you still make mistakes?

Are you without sin?

Have you arrived?

Are you perfect?

Are you kind to your children?

What do they think of you?

How about your friends and family, have you ever made mistakes with the manner in which you have treated them?

Do you still slip up from time to time?

You are looking for perfection. Sorry, but that is not what I am.

there is a thread in the debate section, the discussion is sinless perfection... there are some who suggest that before the return of Christ his followers will be sinlessly perfect.... are you saying by this post that you don't share that view?

 

[sentipente]

Then why do you expect it from others?

 

[woobadooba]

Then why do you expect it from others?

For the same reason that God expects it from us.

You see, you can expect perfection from others without condemning them to hell for every little mistake they make.

It's not wrong to expect others to treat you right. But it is terribly wrong to not acknowledge their sorrow when they admit to having been wrong.

As you judge others, God will judge you.

Are you suggesting that you have a right to expect is of others but no has a right to expect it of you? That is what this statement suggests.

What sense would there be in asking for forgiveness if I thought like this?

The idea of not expecting others to expect perfection from me presupposes that I am not sinful.

Yet, I am clearly telling you that I have issues that need to be worked out with God, just as anyone else does.

What we are now isn't necessarily what we are going to be later on in life.

What do you mean by that? I was born a human and I will die a human. A bit more mature but still a human.

I believe that instead of the report button, some folks need to use the ignore button. I can think of oh half a dozen people whose blood pressure would drop and lifespan would increase if the ignore button were used.

After the other night, NIGHT, I am thinking of using it myself. I spent too much time and lost too much sleep and let someone else take too much of my peace. Not many people know what I am talking about, but Night, I think you do. For those who stay embroiled in this all the time, I don't see how their hearts hold up. It upset me so much I was physically ill the next day.

I wish you all a nice peaceful day.

Annie

Hi Annie. I'm sorry for what you went through. Yes, I know what you are referring to.

I do not lose one ounce of sleep over this person outside of this forum and that is the honest to God truth. Please! He does not even cross my mind until I come here to dialogue and I find he has once again made his presence known here and I have about 3 fresh, new post reports blinking and waiting for me. So, of course, this is going to annoy and infuriate me much like a mosquito buzzing incessantly around one's ear.

True, I should just ignore him and not respond, but we all know that ain't never gonna happen. It just is not in my nature to let things go like so many others are able to do. It just ain't me Annie, and I have never pretended to be this easy-going, water-down-a-ducks-back type of personality! I also don't think anyone should expect me to force myself to be this laid-back, phlegmatic personality when that is not who I am naturally or in real life.

Perhaps one day he will get the clue that if he leaves me alone and does not speak to me things will be fine. But until that day comes and he continues to harass me, ITS ON!

I see the reporting wars continuing in the EC reports forum. Will this ever come to an end?

 

[NightEternal]

It's like Annie said over there in the threads of one of my spite reports Free: If people would not be able to hide behind anonominity, there would be less of this nonsense going on. That, and this ludicrous idea that if you don't mention specific names, you can spew all the trash you want against people with impunity. Both of these rules need to be scrapped.

But, as I look at the interesting change of events taking place there, I am reminded of the old adage:

He who lives by the report button shall die by the report button.

 

[woobadooba]

And those issues have caused a lot of havoc on this forum.

And you haven't done anything to provoke this?

 

[sentipente]

And you haven't done anything to provoke this?

Some rapists blame their victims for their actions. Is this the philosophy you are adopting?

 

[Mankin]

Why do you woob, feel the need to enter every one of Night's threads and start a debate. He wants nothing to do with you, just put him on ignore and go over to any of the other subforums.
