No ones back here in staff area with itchy fingers trying to do anyone in, and we don't keep track of every post a theist makes in hopes of banning them. Should action be warranted per a report--or forced as in this case, it's not something anyone likes to do. There was a theist not long ago who called Chtulhu a dictator and I had to laugh at that, because I know how off base that person was. This forum is run fairly and justly; perhaps one of few out there that actually are. Theists And atheists alike can say what they like, theists being especially welcome to do so, here. Fr0d0 forced himself out, simple as that. I'm sure an apology would be accepted, but I doubt the old hobbit has any humility left whatsoever to allow for such an action. Most ironically, he will likely end up at a forum that doEs censor his shit.
I wanted to give you kudos because the beginning of your post is something I agree with. But...the ending
Frodie is honestly a good guy. He's been having a tough time. I wish I could have been there for him sooner. Had I known he was going batshit on the report button I'd have tried harder. I think that last part of your post was uncalled for and maybe your just still flustered over frodie going nuts. That's what what I'll tell myself because I know you're sweet and loving.
I would propose that I be made official forum guidance counselor. When long term members are losing their grip and getting close to a ban. Send me note "hey Losty have a talk with frodie" or insert name of whomever, no details needed. I have noticed that when people (even adults) act out like this it's usually because they're hurting. Wish I could have given frodie more love and let him vent things out to me. Don't know if it would have helped but I'd have been willing to give it my best try.
