I think I will go back to CF. I am not enjoying myself here.

See you all later.

Interesting scenario.

An individual created two(2) identical user names and used the exact same dialogue generated by a slang translator. One of the user names was created at CF and one at IIDB.

The user name account lasted less than twenty-four (24) hours at IIDB. The user name account lasted just shy of seventy-two (72) hours at CF.

The user name account at IIDB was booted by negating entrance into forum (same script prior to original administration approval to post). No message regarding why user name account was getting the boot.

The user name account at CF was negated after two personal messages by administrative staff.

Interesting observations?

The user name account at IIDB received public objection by a professing Christian that migrated from CF.

Moral of the story- Regardless of belief or non-belief, If one is going to talk the talk, than they should be committed to walking the walk.

Yes.
You have no grounds to make that claim.

Just a few hints. This is a pretty big, sprawling board, and if you want to refer to other threads, it's nice to include a link. I think you are talking about the discussion on "Why should God interfere?", where Diana said,There's no personal acrimony there. That's something you have to get used to here: there is no cheer team ready to go rah-rah for dogmatic assertions. You can go ahead and say "God is love", or any of a thousand other boring christian nostrums, and 1) you won't get banned for it, but 2) you will get a few exasperated ho-hums and requests that you rethink your greeting-card philosophy and actually back up your claims with reason.

Diana is right. You might want to stick to the fluffier forums for a while, because you don't seem quite ready to actually grapple with ideas, or with people who don't automatically accept your propositions. If you are willing to have the unthinking tenets of your faith challenged, though, you've picked the right place and you can try again.

Care to back this up with a little more detail?

The only person that comes to mind that almost fits this description was a user going by the name "2PAC". He mentioned having been at christianforums, and used a rather offensive (and poor!) slang generator. He only seems to have lasted about a day; he received at least one public rebuke for violating forum policies, and had at least one post edited for its racially offensive content.

However, 2PAC does not seem to have been banned. His profile lists his status as simply "User".

Furthermore, if this is 2PAC to whom you refer, I personally sent him a PM warning on April 11th after deleting a post from him which consisted solely of racially offensive, sexually explicit and entirely off-topic commentary. He never read it, never mind answered it, and has not been online (in that incarnation at any rate) since April 13th.

May I ask you, sir, where you get your information? Given its inaccuracies, just what exactly is the moral of the story now?

In my opinion it would be a bad thing for a Christian to get banned from IIDB (this board) because it would mean the Christian had broken the rules here and that wouldn't reflect well on them as a Christian. I would expect a Christian to respect the rules on an atheist board.

I would expect the same of atheists on Christian boards (to the extent they are permitted to post on Christian boards); I consider it a matter of maturity and courtesy to keep the rules of a board.

If you're trying to make a point it's lost on me...

Somebody smack me! I'm watching golf on TV & thinking how pretty this putt or that shot is! Damn that video game! Now that I think about it, though, pro golf would probably be a lot more fun if they had miniature monkeys in the golf balls
