• 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

So the Moderator hammer got dropped on me today. After a wave of warnings and an infraction, I've decided to give my final advice to those here who post in the Singles Forum here at CF.

Never post any images, links or movies on CF. In fact, it is in my opinion that CF should do away with them because if you think about it, anything can be found offensive to someone out there. Apparently things that I find relative to the conversation and / or humorous did not sit well in the minds of a few of CF's members and leadership. CF is a safe community for people of all walks of life, where if one person is offended by the actions of others then there is just cause for alarm.. These are their rules and they are 100% within their right to stand by them and enforce them.

Another bit of advice I would give, is never give your honest opinion or suggestion in a post on CF if it has the chance to hurt someone with a tender heart. Everyone is different and that must always be respected and considered when posting.

After today's tsunami of administrative justice, I feel I should move on to other internet communities so that I do not offend others on CF in the future. It's been an interesting ride here at CF and I pray for all of us the best in life, and I hope and ask that we all seek God's will for our lives. And for those who were always lonely and complaining about the lack of a 'significant other': Take comfort in the fact God loves you more than any man or woman ever could. Hold on to that. All the things you do in your daily life, do for God. Talk to God constantly. Appreciate God. Love God. Stay in his Word. Share what Christ has done for us all with people you meet. Love those people too.

I love you all. Peace. :wave:

I feel for ya, and don't want you to leave.

I know that your post will undoubtedly be removed because we aren't "allowed" to even discuss the moderators. My post will be removed, too, and I don't care.

This forum is awesome in SO many ways. But it's become a raging monster of PC (political correctness) where no one is allowed to offend anyone else, and if you do, you'll get lectured and have a gag put over your mouth and spanked like a child. There is no free speech on this forum, and that's tragic to say, especially since it bears the Christian title.

People should be permitted to express themselves without always being completely proper, happy, polite, and nice. People get angry. People get upset. Different folks are entertained or amused or irritated by different things. Everything should be permitted to be posted, as long as it doesn't break the boundaries of basic decency (profanity, nudity, threats of violence, etc).

Sadly though, if you so much as say "Hey, I don't like you!" to someone here, you'll get reported, deleted, blocked, and sometimes even banned.

That's a tragedy.

End of rant.
