• 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.

What about appeals? Can we still make those as well? I'd like to be able to appeal any warning/suspension/banning given to me by a prejudiced moderator.

No appeals for "unofficial warnings" that I can see. I heartedly agree with you.

What gets me upset is anyone can have a "bad day" (even mods), and sometimes post something in anger.... and regret it later. But we do not get a chance to change it first, we just get "official warning" or "unofficial warning" with the post instantly deleted. Then we have to wear it for a year. This is so unChristian to me, a total lack of forgiveness for manmade rules. I am so glad that Jesus forgives me when I repent of anything I have done. It would cause me to rejoice if this site followed Jesus in truth. It is a good idea and plan basically, but lacks a few things such as forgiveness. Where is the forgiveness that Jesus taught?
