• 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.

just a note to clarify some matters...:)

counting threads are allowed here in this forum as they are a handy way for members to locate posts to exchange reps. So yes, threads such as "Tweety Bird's Counting Thread" or "Counting with the Lone Ranger" are allowed.:)

what is NOT allowed is to imply that the threads exclude any/every other member except the OP from posting by including words or directions in the title or the OP such as 'Counting for sarah only', or ' Counting just for suzi q'.

If any member desires a thread where they will be the only poster, then they need to begin a private member's club with themselves as the only member.

to do that, click on the Member's Cp and go down to the networking section. click on "social groups", then scroll down to the bottom of the page where it says "create a new group" and click there.

sorry, for those who are not very clever - what is a "counting thread" for?

Looks like it's for people with nothing better to do with thier lives than post endlessly where each post is just the next number along.

If you want to get to a monstrous post count it's as good a way as any to do it I guess. I'm not sure why people feel the need to spend extended periods counting in threads but each to their own I suppose.

I am convinced that people use bots and aren't actually posting themselves.
If you become a site supporter, the time restriction on how much time you're allowed between posts is removed, enabling site supporters to post as often and as fast as their keyboards will allow. Bots aren't necessary.

If you want to see if it's a bot or not, count the number of posts made in a minute's time. If it's more than a person can type, it's probably a bot.
