• 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 believe as conservative Christians, we here of many differant churches agree that clarifications to the definition are needed.

In order to accomplish this many of us interdenominationally have been working together with no fighting, and got more done yesterday in just a couple hours than we have been able to do in the entire time since because of outside derailing.

Where can i post a thread, where those whorking together on a presentation can finish our work to present it to the board, without outside interferance?

Good luck with that one. The only way to accomplish this is to basically ignore those who are not CC. Ignore their comments and posts and those of us who are CC, we only respond to each other.

I'm not sure how else to accomplish this, other than everyone meeting on MSN or YIM or AIM. I don't have AIM.

Anyway... you are doing a good job in that thread. Sorry that I'm not helping much.

You cant and if you look around you will see most areas are experiencing this, a wde range of beliefs are coming in all over. Dont know if that is good or bad but do like the suggestion to ignore posters with this aim. If no one responds they will leave it alone.

I am rectifying this situation by putting it up for vote now.

You might try this: Start a thread with the title being something like this:

"Conservative Members ONLY Please".


I am a long time member of OBOB, but if a thread is entitled "Catholics ONLY", then I don't post in that thread.:)

We should have a right to have a thread that is strictly for Conservatives Only. And I think most good people would abide by that.

Do we need to make a rule?

Excellent idea, it might also be good to talk to the mods about keeping the thread in check and if it can be left in the main area so that the debate dont rules to come into affect.

NewGuy, thank you, good advice. I am talking only about threads in the main area.:) We should be able to have as many threads as we want in the main area that is for CC members Only.

But I do think we would probably have to make it a rule. That way, if non-members post in the thread, they can be deleted as FSR violations.

In either case we will still run into trouble with the "conservatives" who agree with the current rules but refuse to contribute to the proposal.

I'm not sure how everything works here, but if a majority voted to make it a rule, then wouldn't it be made a rule? I am thinking about a poll, where if the vote is 51% in favor, then it becomes a rule. But I'm not sure about how these things are carried out.:)

You do realize if I answer I'd be reported, right?

It's not a mean signature- it is one that expresses reality.
Well, given am being tarnished with a brush there, also, I'd like an explanation, please.

My answer would say the things I've already said and have had removed by staff.
Tell me something. CC currently has 6 mods. You'll find the list of us on the main CC page. How many of us do you feel have mistreated you?

Why do you continue to invite me to flame the staff?

When I get a FSB or a RPE for this topic I'm going to make you the sole object of my signature. Moderators shouldn't encourage members to violate the rules.
