• 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

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

Lisa
Thanks for the heads up lisa.
For the record I did not see that thread until after my post.

I am asking the board in general.

I will not as long as I am a member here stop fighting against the heavy handed unilateral authoritarian methods of oversight that this board has been subjected to. I am entirely convinced that there are those who have made it their purpose to rid this board of our presence.

So would you all like me to continue to fight or to leave? I will have no ill will towards any of you for your answers because I know that if I continue my actions could get the board closed down, and many of you have just as much invested here as I do. I would truly like to know what you think. You may if you are more comfortable PM me. I assure you unlike some I have no problem maintaining confidentiality.

I will make no further statements that might endanger this board until I receive the input needed to make this decision.

I didn't report it, but I imagine it is because the last paragraph completely maligns Jim47.
How does stating that I do not believe someone has the skills necessary to do a job malignant? Really I don't mean this confrontationally I just don't understand how you got that.

oughta close this thread~at least temporarily?

oughta close this thread temporarily~the topic cannot be discussed during probation.

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....

Yeah, just close it down for a couple weeks...

...just in the best interest of all involved...

...wouldn't take much for a mod to close it...

...or maybe the OP could request it...

Look, MrJim is trying to tell us something!

What is it, MrJim, is it Jeff? Is Jeff in trouble?

OK, take us to him, we'll follow you.

Good boy!

;)

...and a mod could just save us the trouble of a potentially reported post by just closing the thread; it's like putting up one of these:

See, the mod could put up the gate, and while others are trying to lure some into trouble they won't be able to get past the gate (JULIO, GET OFF THAT GATE!!)

Just a side thought, even with all my computer geekiness, I never knew what <3 meant until I started playing a game called Kingdom of Loathing.

Great game. Aside from my family, it's one of the few things that can tear me away from CF.
