New Feature: Automatic Restriction of Posting in certain forums

[Jenndiggy]

What about allowing men and women to post in the opposite forums for advice -- starting threads only but not replying.

Or maybe have a forum just for men/women advice (not nec. dating advice) that all could post in? That might actually be better.

The only small problem I see is, is that the icon is no longer optional as it was originally. Because in order to be able to post, you are forced to choose one. Since the introduction of the Christian icon, I had no problem using it, just my thoughts on it though.

It's still optional. But to post in Christian-only forums, the staff needs to know the member is Christian. Everything is still the same, we are just enforcing our existing rules better.

Hmm, I really miss the Secular Music forum.

It's sorta silly that non believers can't post in it, seeing as how it is SECULAR music afterall, lol.

This leaves the book club as the only non-philosophy related forum I can post it.

Could you make the Secular music forum and open one, or at least create a seperate forum for secular music discussion?

The Secular Music forum has always been a Christian-only area right from its creation.

The Men and Women's Forums are for those genders. Any other advice should go to the many other forums out there. Or the Bathroom or Shed.

HELP!!!!

I changed my denomination to "Charismatic" in my profile, but I still cannot post in the Charismatic forum. I also tried "Assemblies of God", but that would not work either (it's back to "Charismatic" now).

I get this message:"The following errors occured when this post was submitted:
You need to be a Christian to post in this forum, as defined by Forum Rule 6 (read here). If you are a Christian according to Forum Rule 6, please choose your Christian Category Or Faith in your User CP, Profile, so that you are able to post in this forum."

I changed it...it doesn't work...what am I doing wrong? I am involved in a couple of really good discussions in that folder, and would like to be able to reply.

Thanks for your help...

Choose the Faith Icon, as Christian, Non-Denominational or Protestant.

 

[Erwin]

In fact, I'll do it for you now...

 

[Erwin]

Done. You should be able to post now...

Well can the non believers please have somewhere to discuss music?

 

[kukumot]

This time my post was accepted! Thank you so much!

LOL I wasn't complaining, it was just another random observation, I think it will help out alot.

This is where I will agree....its pretty rediculous to not let non believers not talk about secular music. You should take that into consideration for those who like to talk about there own band. Talking about music shouldn't just be something Christians can do.

Warrior Poet was trying to post and he chose non-denom but it is still giving him a #6 error. I tried to change it for him too but it would not stay.

I've fixed it for him. He had Non-Denom in his Christian Denomination, but not the Faith Icon section.

Thanks Erwin

This is good to know. If I want to do a poll of Christian attitudes only , now I know how.

You roll your eyes now, but I'll be the one laughing when it all comes true!

Oh my goodness that was too funny

But remember as always posting on message boards is always optional. If we post here we choose to post and therefore play by the rules when posting

But some of these rules are kinda interesting.
