• 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.

On this forum it seems the Report buttons for some is as addictive as heroin.

I see we now get to see in the archived Reports the people who actually seem addicted to the thing.

I never realised the appeal of the thing myself but I guess it needs to be labelled an opiate the way some abuse it.

Is there a methadone substitute for the trigger happy? Some of those reports are a joke.

Let me know when you find that substitute, KM...

*goes off to harass the admin who forgot to press the "anonymous" checkmark for that forum*

LOL - it was a mistake?

Hilarious - just when you think CF has some sense you quickly find out it's only by error.

Of course it should be visible. Then we can see the people whom, let's face it, are being very petty at times.

Just look on that board and see the repeat names of the reporters? Often it seems targeting the same person.

If you have the need to report then stand behind it.

I've always thought there should be a report limit per poster.

Once a day or some such.

I rather like the idea of the reporter being public....I think it would cut down on a lot of the sandbox argument reports that we get a play by play report of a thread before we even go to read it... :sigh:

anyhow...yeah...I'm staff and my opinion doens't really count, but I like it KM :)

actually, i find the report button quite theraputic. i can't render evil for evil so i must let those supposedly in charge fulfill their responsibilities.

but one thing should be mentioned and i have said the same thing on other boards, you may think you cando what youwant under an annonomous i.d. but God sees it all and He knows who did what.

Guess who is responsible for each i.d.'s words and actions? the person who signed up as that annonomous user. everything you say and do falls upon the real personality behind each independent i.d.

maybe you should think twice before saying something that is not scriptural or sin.

{p.s.-- i am not perfect and try to watch myself as well}
