Hi NewGuy,

How ya doing?

Hi NewGuy,

How ya doing?

Cool...except for my pending BAN

 

[DeanM]

Cool...except for my pending BAN

I'm sorry to hear about that ban thing.

Seems to be a bit of that going around.

I used to get into trouble quite often too, ya know. I had a change of heart once I found the right forum for me. Seems like I was always drawing fire for my views before that, hehe.

You know I'm a WWMCer, I suppose.

We don't all dislike you, by the way. I admit I find your tone to be a bit abrasive at times, but no worse than how I used to sound, I'm sure.

We don't agree on too much theologically. I'm cool with that. But, I have to say That I'll miss your posts. I found them to be spicy and entertaining. Granted, I never really took your side on any issues, but that was because we see things from different angles.

Hey, in the end, we're both worshipping the same God, right? In that respect, I'm glad to have you on the same team as me.

Hope you work out your issues with the ban and stuff. PM me you want to chat. We can share some old war stories about how much trouble we've been in, though it's been quite some time since I've gotten in any real trouble, but I'm sure I can remember a few fun stories, hehe.

Just noticed your signature . . .

Are you trying to get banned for offending people?

If you're trying to get banned, I don't know what to tell you . . .

Im a close minde fundie biggot what do you expect?

 

[DeanM]

Hehe, I get a hint of sarcasm . . .

Do you know that your signature is highly offensive?

I'm trying to figure it out. Either you know how offensive your signature is, or you don't.

If you do know how offensive it is, I have to guess that you're trying to get banned.

If you don't know, you may want to look up the "B" word and see what it means.

Did you ever think that I AM A BEANER? So I can say that about myself?

 

[DeanM]

Did you ever think that I AM A BEANER? So I can say that about myself?

Did you ever think that anyone reading your signature would have no way to know whether you apply the term to yourself or not?

The word itself is offensive.

But I think I've figured out something about you. You not only want to get banned, but you want to do it such a way that when it happens, you'll be able to somehow justify that you were wrongly banned.

Here's how I figured it out. If you really wanted to get banned, why wouldn't you just leave? The end result would be the same: You'd be gone.

But, since your still here and trying to be as offensive as you can, but covering yourself with feeble excuses such as your signature might be referring to you, I have to assume that are seeking to martyr yourself.

Again, the end result will be the same: You'll be gone.

I'm not judging you for your approach. Really, I find your contributions to be spicy and interesting, though i rarely agree with you. But, isn't that sorta the point of a discussion board? If everybody agreed, there'd be no drama. And drama is, well, dramatic.

But let me ask you something. Let's say that you do get banned. Let's also say that you don't think that you deserved to get banned. Well, you'd have a real story to tell, and nobody to tell it to.

Who do you think will get agitated if you got banned? The drama would end, and nobody would hear your side.

Seems kinda like going out with a fizzle.

Like to hear another option? You can try to do what I did. I separated myself from the folks who provoked me and tried to become the guy who helps people.

And you know what? I still have not gone back into my old forum. As far as I'm concerned, those folks are beyond any help I could ever give them.

But once in while, I'll run into one of my old 'enemies' and I'm proud that they have to look at my growing reputation that in many cases, has exceded theirs.

I know this is not a contest, but there is a winning feeling that comes with being supportive and positive.

Take you and I, for example. We could be arguing toe-to-toe over some point of belief, and getting snarky with eachother. I know that we've come close to that in the past. But, here we are, having a normal discussion.

Wanna blow people's minds? Be nice to them.

Remember, I came from a near-ban situation myself. I'm not just throwing flowers at you for the sake of peace. Personally, I don't really care about what you do here. A lot of folks don't care either.

"Oh, NewGuy got banned . . ." That's about the fanfare that you'll get.

It took me over a year to clear my bad rep. Ill feelings are long-lingering.

Wanna really make waves? Try being nice. You'll get attacked for it, and you'll have to endure it. But, if you really want to see some drama, try being nice and stick with it.

Now, when one of my old enemies explodes into WWMC after "finding" me again, they automatically tear me shreds, and everyone else is like, "why the heck did you attack Dean?" It ends up making my old enemies look so foolish.

To be fair, though, I'll always admit that I used to be a real jerk, and that the attack was waranted.

And if you can make it as far as I have, something funny happens: you end up with friends. You get noticed for saying positive things.

And it sticks *(as long as you can keep your temper or walk away before shredding somebody)

I just spent the past week "walked away."

Okay, I've rambled on far too long. PM me if you'd like to talk about any of this in depth. There's hope for people like us, NewGuy. Convert now, and I'll save you 50% off the application fee to join my group of reformed jerks (I'm currently the only member, lol).

nah theres no hope...sorry

thanks for the lecture I didnt need.

 

[DeanM]

As you wish.

I wasn't lecturing ya, NewGuy. I was just pointing out what I did and how it helped me, as well as offering to help you if desired.

Certainly not judging you, though. I've never reported you. Heck, I'll miss you if you go away!

The offer still stands, bro. PM if you want.

 

[desmalia]

J, I saw the posts you were reported for (well at least most of 'em, I think) since I was participating in some of those threads at the time. Based on the extremely offensive behavior of a number of the members in those threads, it really looks like you were the victim of some kind of organized "spite report" attack. lol. Hopefully the mods will recognize how badly some of them were baiting you with personal attacks, etc. and how well you handled that. IMHO you didn't stoop to their level. Personally I didn't bother reporting any of them either (though the grounds were certainly there!) because it is their forum, and I support a large degree of autonomy among the subforums. But if the mods consider the whole picture, I think all this nonsense should go away very quickly.

could you say that here...

BTW the mods in WWMC have not sided with reason at all, instead they are trying to get a perm. ban.

I would if I could, J. I don't have access to that thread. But feel free to quote me there if you like.

Are they seeking an FSB or SWB?

I thought you could see public appeals?

Its going back and forth from SWB to FSB

Folks - a gentle reminder to all - please do not discuss moderator actions in open forums. I don't want fuel added to the fire, nor do I want additional reports generated. I understand there is frustration - but please post in accordance with this:

Issues with staff decisions should be taken to the staff member, then the reconciliation team, period. Don't post them, don't PM them to others, don't take them to Lee.

Desmalia - if there is a post that's a flagrant violation and you don't want to report it - pm me (or any Fundamentalist mod) a link - we'll go from there.

We want the Fundamentalist Christian forum to be a "safe haven." I'm the first to admit I don't have the time to read every post here and could easily miss something.

As far as the current topic of this particular thread - again, please don't feed the bears.

derogatory term some used for hispanics...

But since I am hispanic, I choose to use it.

I'm pretty much saying reformed hispanics thanking God for his grace.
