• 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Help me out here....

I have been thnking about changing my name. (grammybear just makes me sound OLD!!) My avatar stays the same, so no matter what my name is, people should recognise me. Give me some suggestions for a new name, then I will make a poll, and y'all can help me!!:clap: I want my name to reflect who I am, But, I am still not quite sure who that is!:doh: I am thinking somethng along the lines of the south.

Hmm. "Dixie Chick" is too obvious. Maybe play on it a little, with "Dixie Chic."

Or maybe Bayou Bear? Bellaire Bear? Baptist Bear?

Nope, not Dixie Chick, don't like them, anymore! lol!^_^

Jen, lots of people call me Grammy, so, it isn't your fault! I kinda like keeping the bear thing, since I use the dancing bear avatar. I have used that avatar for about 5 years, now! I like SouthernBelle, too. As soon as I get a few more suggestions, I'll make a poll!!:clap:

. . . How about SouthernBear? BearHugs? ReneeBear? Bearenee? <--note clever use of "r" in both "bear" and "renee" ;) . . .

I like that, it is clever. :)

. . . OR SouthernBelle? Or some southern food you like ... GritsNGrace? :D . . .

My father's lady friend calls herself a GRITS - - girl raised in the south. :D I actually was going to suggest something along those lines, but I don't have much imagination so couldn't come up with something clever, and gritsbear just doesn't cut it. I wish I could help. :sorry:

When I saw cw's suggestion, I thought about a bear I used to watch at the zoo. Here's a pic of a sun bear:



I think there might be a children's book character named sunshine bear.

Before you finally pick a name, check the member's list and see if the name already exists - - you're unique, so you should have a unique name, one not shared. I don't think anything suggested so far is being used, but just to be sure . . .

Thanks JD:blush: I have never thought of myself as unique, though. I am just an ordinary person.

I am leaning towards GritsnGrace that Jen suggested. I could put my bear reference in my profile!
