How long Elpidio?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Ask Jesus : One Thread

Elpidio,

How long are you going to tolerate the spamming on our board before you finally put a stop to it?

*Playboy*, *SM*, and *Who do you like most of the people on this forum?*, *Kissing Someone just for fun*, *Does a Catholic Priest have to be a virgin to become a Priest?*, *Sexual Fantasies*, * Sexual Revolution*, *Do you like Jerry?*....just to name a few--all come from the same poster/s and are designed to antagonize and mess up our board. These are not serious questions from people who really want answers.

Please delete the spam, Elpidio

Faith.

Some have become history,faith.

Others will be soon.

Elpidio--

They clutter the board and push the good threads back.

Just delete them and tell the perpetrators we are not interested in spam and that it is against the board rules. This is what moderating is about.

-- (faith01@myway.com), February 03, 2005.


Folks,

those threads do seem like pranks, but if they can be turned around into a serious and valuable discussion, they can be reworked. The "Masturbation" thread was probably intended to cause chaos, but it did become a serious discussion and debate. If PUNKER'S threads are not workable, we should delete them. I do not wish to have an "Anarchy Pt. 3" in this forum.

Excellent, Faith!!

"Just delete them and tell the perpetrators we are not interested in spam and that it is against the board rules. "--Faith.

That's callled, "Excommunication"! Good job!

It's called moderating the board--and someone should do it.

It must be nice to have such free time that anyone could sit at their computer and have time to respond to such non-sense, but I'm not one of those people.

There is absolutely nothing interesting here....just a bunch of stupid mess!

-- (faith01@myway.com), February 03, 2005.


If Punker actually read and replied to the threads he starts, a lot of them c ould be quite useful, but just posting and moving on really is more like spam.

Faith want's to excommunicate him from this forum, not very non- judgemental, IMO.

Posters cannot be banned from this forum--which would be a better comparrison to excommunication.

But certainly we can clean up the mess...hm?

Delete the spam, Elpidio...

Yes, but not by your style of moderating.

It must be nice to have such free time that anyone could sit at their computer and have time to respond to such non-sense, but I'm not one of those people.

Neither am I, but I will respond to you anyway. Why do you care? I believe that is your position about the moderator's duties from a previous post.

There is absolutely nothing interesting here....just a bunch of stupid mess!

You are so perceptive. Did you really mean to say "stupid"? I think sophomoric would work a little better.

Just relax, Elpidio will take care of things in their proper way. Have some Green Tea or something. Enjoy life. Be happy. Read a novel. Oops! you probably don't have time.

That is not true, Faith. I know of several instances that required banning. Two folks have not been allowed back in. Some have banned themselves for a time and returned. Hmmm? Who was that person?

Yeah, remember Jeannie!

-- Gail (rothfarms@socket.net), February 03, 2005.

That is exactly who I was thinking of. Uh.....and her hubby, that's if he really existed?

Uh, we didn't even ban our wonderful poster. Talk about being overly flexible!!

I will admit that it was my intentions to ban Faith. But, it seems that things have calmed down. One day, the apology will be posted. I hope I'm still breathing on that day.

:)

Anarchy Part 3A

-- Luke Juarez (hubertdorm@yahoo.com), February 03, 2005.

Faith, you said,

Posters cannot be banned from this forum--which would be a better comparrison to excommunication

Not true, look at the "about" section for this forum, you'll find the following:

"List: Ty (was banned for spamming the forum, antagonizing the moderator & broke rules #1, #2, #6)

John Gecik (Catholic forum) (Suspected of posting here, but not with real name and email. This individual is prohibiting from posting in this forum because he will break rules #1, and #6)

Eugene Chavez (Catholic forum) (This individual is prohibited from posting on this forum because of his bigotry and hatred to those with differing opinions, and will likely break rules #1 & #6)

Jeanie (mary_kissmiss@hotmail.com) (Banned for posting Jewish Hate Lit. and breaking rules #1, #5, #6, #7, #9, & #10)

Bilal (Jeanies Husband ) (lebanese_guy23@hotmail.com) (Also banned for posting Jewish Hate Lit. and breaking rules #1, #5, #6, #7, #9, & #10) "

Apparently *some* people here DO believe in "excommunicating" others, although you do not. Just another Protestant division, I suppose. LOL, in this case "might makes right". The forum moderators will say if someone will be banned or not, and you and I will obey, or leave to find a new forum.

Anyone from the Catholic forum is ok with me, but David made it clear about some. I don't like it, but it is David's doing.

.......

-- rod (elreyrod@yahoo.com), February 03, 2005.



David did all the banning, Frank.

David was banned from the Catholic Forum because of John Gecik and Eugene Chavez. So that stuff is personal.

Paul M and David buried the hatchet.

I personally have not banned anyone. I may delete some messages or edit them.

Rod and I worked hard with davd to make this not only into an open Christian Forum for people of all beliefs but an international interfaith forum.

So Jews, Jehovah's Witnesses, Atheists, Non-believers,Jewish Messianic, Muslims,anarchists,....are some of the people who have posted here and at our child at EZ Board.

I know is easy to get at faith, but how many of you have actually say something positive to her?

We are all God Yahweh's children.

-- Elpidio Gonzalez (egonval@yahoo.com), February 03, 2005.


Yes, you are correct, Elpidio. It is tough to be nice around Faith. I will try to do my best from this point on. Even if she gets to me, I will be nice.

I will burry the hatchet, axe, sledge hammer, knife, boomboorang, bolos, arrows, machetes, nunchukas, blowguns, chinese yo-yos, TNT, arsenic, chinese finger box, snares, pits, reflector mirrors, ebola strains, atomic bombs, nuclear devices, and joy buzzers. I will try.

-- rod (elreyrod@yahoo.com), February 03, 2005.


I've got nothing against faith as a person, it's her theology that's bad. It's like a buddy of mine who has a long-term girlfriend who's into 'new age' stuff. Absolute garbage, but she gets to decide what's true and what isn't, and that's good enough for her. I put a lot of these church of one people in the same group. Not bad as people, but confused.

There. I was nice!

As Moderator for a time myself--I happen to know that you cannot actually ban someone from the Greenspun forums. You can ask them to leave--but they can come back under a different name and the only one who would know would be the moderator if he's paying attention. That was my point. And actually, I was really pointing out that the analogy of excommunication doesn't actually apply when deleing spam. That's all. Carry on about all your *nothing* you like to talk about. I don't have the time.

-- (faith01@myway.com), February 03, 2005.

It is about 6:42 p.m. Central Time. There, you now have the time.

And, thank you for clarifying your poits. I really enjoyed your post, even if you didn't really mean to post because of the lack of time.

Happy everything!

Faith?

Uh.......I mentioned this before, but I guess it wasn't important. Your personal email options can reveal many things. That's how people can detect impostures and or return posters. Hello?....testing.....one...two....mic check.....

Faith , even I'm not religious , it's allowed , I may post here on the forum !!

I agree

Laurent,

I would like for you to present your credo. How do you justify your faith in whatever it is that you have faith in. How can you be so sure that you are in the truth. Obviously, you believe that we who consider ourselves "Christians" are in the wrong, by your estimation. I'm not trying to start a fight. I'm trying to understand the other side of the coin.

...........

-- rod (elreyrod@yahoo.com), March 07, 2005.


David Ortiz,

you have allowed Paul M. to post in this forum despite the fact he banned you from the Catholic Forum. It takes guts and a Christian heart to do that, especially at your age.

Paul M. also was able to discuss things here. He didn't have to.

That is why I said you buried the hatchet. But you still have not done it with Eugene Chavez and John Gecik.

Uh..........I'm under David's thumb. That's ok. One day he will realize that I was never under that thumb.

Rod , thx for your question:

Hopefully I don't sound too boring , or a bit too confused !!

What is true or is the truth , I really don't know , even no-one knows !! btw: Why there are so many religions ??

What I do believe:

Well simple , I REALLY don't believe in ALL those made-up heaven & hell creatures !! Actually , what you believe , that's up to you !! In some things we do have the same view / opinion , otherones , we're opposites !! So , what concerns with "in the wrong" , mmmm , well , I don't care what you believe !! But some people think their religion is the ONLY truth and they try to "smash" this in to your brains and they also can't stand any comment , and that's something what I really despise !!

I live now , if I die tomorrow , so be it !! In that case , I'm finished , over & out , I'll rot in the ground , but the nature will re-use my corpse !!

Some things I agree with the rcc: abortus / euthanasia / drugs , ....

Some things I disagree with the rcc: the bible , church , mass , pray , homosexuals , a church wedding , crosses , heaven , hell , purgatory , ....

About the subject , sex: it depends on .... , if 2 people really are in love with eachother , and if they are dead-serious with eachother , than I see no problem !! But on the other hand , it's not up to us to tell them they may not have sex , except for:

Of course , sick perverts like rapists , paedophiles , that's something else !!

And yes , parents do have the right (100%) to prohibit their kids to have sex !! Some kids wants to have sex , already at the age of 13 - 14 , that's completely wrong !! Good education is very important !!!!

Tomorrow I'll answer again if necessary , 'cause it's bedtime for me: 1h30CET

BTW: a good fight , mmmm , Terry Funk vs Jerry "the king" Lawler :)

Salute & Cheers from a NON BELIEVER:
