What IS good, and how do we determine it?

If everyone here is such a joke to you, then why are YOU still here?

"Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding." - Proverbs 17:28

See the similarities?

This only proves that Abe had a better command of English than the person that translated The Bible; or God, you're choice.

So Abe had better command of English than Scholars from Oxford and Cambridge?.... sounds legit.

Here's another example:

God: "If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon them."

WBC: "God hates fags"

See the similarities?

Speaking of English... I don't believe cigarettes, existed in those days...

I never said jokes weren't entertaining.

Maybe you could just confine him to his own thread, so he can argue about who said what to who, instead of derailing every thread with his nonsense.

I was once a moderator at a forum which had a subforum called the "Ouibliette", for those members so disruptive that they deserved on the company of their own kind.  Instead of banning these folks, we subjected themselves to each other, and had a laugh or two every so often at the really good dust-up.

So, it's okay for people to call me a motherfucker, accuse me of lying, mock my faith, slander my Church and blaspheme my God.

I'm sure your god can protect you from these varied insults. Quit crying and start praying, and make sure you let us know how that is working out for you.

I propose an addition to the forum lexicon -

Pull(ing/ed) a Huggy: to be a demonstratively whiny twat when it comes to how forum rules are enforced in the middle of a thread.  Example:

Randy, stop pulling a Huggy.

Because it needed to be repeated.

Doesn't work. Cookies are shared for all windows and tabs of the browser.
Unless we were to keep two different browsers open, one for each account... but that would be hell for some of us.

I find no need for such mechanism, just so a few users could not see what I post as a normal user. It's far easier for those few users to use their bio-ignore function.

I often have two windows open when working in this forum, poca, so that I may monitor multiple threads OR refer from one thread to another.

However, I don't have two accounts so I don't know how that might affect things.

That said, we can and should let this matter drop.

You cannot use two user names at one time from the same computer.

If you don't like reading posts from moderators, "skim the avs" and skip their posts.

Let us know how that works out for you, eh?

Did you read the rules, Randy?

Hell, did you read the url of this website? -_-

But if I make a suggestion for improving the forum in the wrong place, I've committed a GREAT TRANSGRESSION.

If you do it three times after repeatedly being told not to, you're being really annoying.

And if you're playing the victim, you're acting like an asshole.

You sir, are a disappointment and a letdown to your religion. A religion, which you seem to take so much pride in preaching to others. You fail miserably to represent or act anything like the christian examples that you want others to live by. That makes you a hypocrite. You spew hate on these forums in such a way that I think if your god was real, he'd be just like one of those parents who drink because their child is too much to handle.

You set a horrible example of what it is like to live a "Christ-like" life.  You get on threads and quote crap from your bible, yet you don't mirror any of what you "preach". If this is how you behave online, I fathom to think of how you behave in the outside world. You seem to carry around way too much hate in your own heart to love anyone but yourself because you are dismissive, passive-aggressive, illogical, unreasonable, rude, ignorant, without compassion, lacking in empathy, self-centered and a drama queen. You are nice, only when it suits you to be. Only when there is an agenda or when you will get a prize for behaving. You further prove my claims that you are a narcissist with each and every post you write.

And it really is a shame.


You're the type of piece of shit that helps to give Christianity a bad name. A really bad name. You need to do your religion a favor and stop calling yourself a Christian. You obviously, are incapable of acting like a good one. And that is nothing to be proud of.

Go fucking play in traffic, dickbag.

[IATIA]

Do as I say, not as I do. That applies to their god as well as a few 'members' of the 'flock'. I guess they are just trying to be god-like?

[Randy Carson]

Honest Abe. I hope this inspires you to great integrity in your postings.

You misspelled "greater" there.

Good point. While I had hoped for great integrity, I will be grateful for greater integrity from you in the future.
