• 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

There will now be no means of accountability. Have you noticed in the new rules we are to contact the "reconciliation" team after the individual. Never the owner.

Let's hope that Lee can direct his staff properly. We'll see.

I just recently started reading the reports. There was so much pettiness and immaturity...If we would learn to die to our flesh and esteem each other the reports would be very minimal..Sadly the immaturity was in mods and the regular joes..We will always have tares mixed with the wheat till Jesus comes...Just be aware of the sheep that are dressed like wolves ..Try to ignore them and let them get to you..

Gang, protests are not the way to go with LeeD as CEO.

Make your case... present biblical truth, follow the rules and protocol and let's see what he wants this site to be. And if the result is not something you want to live with... migrate.

Four years (for me) of Erwin's style makes it hard to shift. But shift is needed.

Blessings,
Steve

I agree Steve. And honestly, I would much rather have the new system becuz this one creates pure STRIFE and contention.
I say let the man make all his changes & then see how it goes.

A note: we have been used to a 'war' atmosophere here for awhile now, so we also need to try to start to shed our "WAR/SURVIVALIST" mentality that has been acquired thru Erwin's vision.

It's put us into FIGHT & PROTECTION MODE as if we're the hunted..... on our own turf!! :help: :swoon: :mad:

We fight and contend earnestly for the faith - but God calls us to do it HIS WAY, not ours (which I'm more inclined to grab me some ammo and hold my ground lol).
one verse I hold close to me is this:

"be wise as serpents and innocent as doves".

God has laid this on my heart and I fully intend on enjoying this section (or whatever other section I may have to move on to) and standing for Christ my Lord and IN Christ.
:bow: :angel:

When the highest traffic for fora and thread is generated on issues dealing wiht the personality of moderators, or foru.ms politics, or who said what about whom, then I would say that the new openness has about run its course.

It's not that all the gossip isn't interesting.

But it is gossip.

IIDB have had their say into making foru.ms into their gossipy image. I personally would be happy to see the day when this, too, will pass.

Amen, i can stand anywhere, i preferred here, but if we cant share a conservative opinion, if this isnt one change made, call me a fundy and a patriot. As Peter said, you judge which is right, who should we obey, God or man? In a conservative home forum, members should be allowed to follow Christ according to their hearts and state their opinion.

Whoever reported me for the above post would you be kind enough to have a mod point out to me which "restriction on CCC". I have violated please?

I didn't report you but I can tell you why you were reported. You were discussing staff in a negative manner.

Probably should just close this thread for a while~topic can't be discussed, and there are those hovering about just waiting for a rulz violation....
It would be nice if this thread is closed, as it is on topic of what we are not allowed to talk about, (Owner, Policy, Staff)
