LOL, okay, is your name on there a lot?

Is mine?

HAHA

 

[sentipente]

Mine is there.

 

[TrustAndObey]

That's pretty much all I needed to see to make my decision.

No way.

 

[sentipente]

I don't understand. This process will always continue. That is where all complaints go. It just happens that most people never visit it.

 

[TrustAndObey]

brb....phone

 

[TrustAndObey]

I had no idea it even existed, and I'm pretty much wishing I didn't know now either.

The comments you can add on to the complaints are just going to get petty. I see untruthful statements and people trying to "goat" the moderators into doing something about what doesn't look like a flaming post to me at all.

Lord help us all, a new place to fight. That's ALL we needed.

But now that people are aware of it, I'm sure our differences are going to be made even more public.

It will be a compaign now to say "what he said wasn't that bad" or "what she said was really terrible."

Nope, I'm not going to have any part of this one.

 

[sentipente]

Sounds like the members of this forum don't deserve to be among civilized people, then.

 

[TrustAndObey]

But they are...and we have to live with that.

I had a boss tell me once that I didn't handle unreasonable people well. I just laughed because if someone is unreasonable then obviously they lack reason.

I told him I took that as a compliment.

 

[sentipente]

But they are...and we have to live with that.

Are we dispensing with personal responsibility and maturity and growth. Does it no longer matter how we represent the one we so loudly claim to follow? How long will we encourage this hypocrisy?

Sentipente, once a person says there are uncivilized people on this planet and they try to CHANGE those people, they're trying to take God's job away from Him. IMHO

Some people don't always realize what they've said appears hurtful to others, and I think instruction could be a beautiful tool. But at this point I'm willing to put my confidence in the mods to do the same thing. We know the people on here, and we're not going to vote in people we don't respect or think won't do a good job.

I don't like this idea. And yes Regis, that's my final answer.

I don't recall saying anyone was uncivilized or wanting to change anyone.

Here's what I'm referring to.

I admit I think in "worse case" scenario a lot, but I do it from past experience from THIS BOARD.

I know what some of the people are capable of on here, and I just see this as another place to take our debates.

I don't want any part of it.

 

[TrustAndObey]

I've said my peace on this.

I'm outtie.

 

[sentipente]

This is no longer about debates or Trad/Prog. This is about conversion. Some people may need to go on self-imposed exile "until they are converted" so they can come and feed His sheep.

I see certain parties are begging the mods to have me banned. Not suprised.

 

[NightEternal]

My joke? Somebody reported MY JOKE??! IT WAS A JOKE THREAD!!



Ohhhhh, my goodness. Get-a-LIFE.

Okay, I need to stop looking at this link before I completely snap.

seriously?

 

[sentipente]

You must be kidding.

 

[NightEternal]

Interesting that of all the people I have ever reported, I have never called for anyone to be banned from the forum.

And I'm supposed to be the 'Devil' here.

Whatever.
