When are we going to stop reacting to eachother and begin expressing understanding, grace and love?



Let us show kindness. I just realised a brother who seeks to declare Gods word was banned from this site.



I do not agree with him and he has offended me many times but let us set the example of expressing love by showing forgiveness, Please....

I don't think they just ban someone because they're reported. Maybe LTM has some insight.



@LTM: Did you receive any warning or reason for your ban?



:peace::peace:

Actually yes, it can and does happen. I know several very good men of God and ministers who have been banned like this.... because they stood up for the truth. However, I know some people who are not of good character, and who have harmed women, who are still on this site. It doesn't make sense to me but "it is what it is."



Unfortunately, there is good and bad everywhere on this earth. We have justice systems in place (such as this site banning people) but it is not always correct or fair. I appreciate that this site kicks off many spammers but along with that.... sometimes people who do not deserve to get banned do. It is very difficult for people in the ministry to say nothing when they see others being led astray. People who are trying to lead others astray generally become very offended when questioned. IMO A true man or woman of God - has absolutely no problem being questioned and can answer each question firmly not from their opinion but from scripture. Fortunately, we are blessed to know that God is the FINAL JUDGE.



Just stay obedient to God and His Word, regardless of what comes against you.

People get Banned for many reasons�Speaking the Truth is not one of them�some reasons is Behavior�such as�



Controlling the Forums as to who may and may not participate in discussions�

Stalking and Hijacking a Thread to inflect harassment towards any person�

Negative & Sarcastic comments deliberately meant to hurt�

Name-calling�

Previously been banned for the same reasons�



Many people have left this site because of the ongoing behavior of some people...and CDFF is at Liberty to Ban anyone for any reason they believe is in Violation of the Terms of use of this site�I have faith in them to do what is right for All concerned�xo

Yes I believe that is CDFF's good intent. Unfortunately that is not always how it works. Some people know how to "work the system" just like in all systems of justice there is corruption. Accusations such as the one's you listed for reasons of being banned, from several friends that band together with the manipulation of banning someone who disagrees with them can certainly cause someone to become banned. CDFF simply does not have the manpower to verify each and every single case. Personally, I think they should check the IP address on each person complaining against someone to see if they have been previously banned. That would solve a lot of this type of stuff because it mostly comes from previously banned people. As was in this case.



Please note: I have never been banned, this is my same profile name that I've had here for two years.

No Mark i have never been banned. Came close once, but the ones seeking to have me banned left the site.



I agree with you Sunshine, and also with Jude. The fact is darkness hates light and will go to any extreme to get rid of it, even on a "christian" dating site.

Mark,



I did not get any warning or oppertunity to make things right. One day I was simply banned.



I was guilty in my thread submisssion the good of it for a comment I made toward GUD. I can make the excuse for my comment but I will not do so.



When I returned as letthismind2 the first thing I did was to offer my oppology and ask forgiveness from him which I yet to recieve.



I am human and because of that fallible. I dont hide the fact that I am and have much to learn and grow. Yeilding my life to God through His spirit in the name of Jesus is THE only reason I can live Holy in any way.



Praise God I receive no honor for my self.





Michael

"I have faith in them to do what is right for All concerned"

Based on what? The site isn't Christian owned. We have no reason to believe they will make godly and prayerful decision. I myself have been banned in the past for basically telling people they were wrong. Of course people will tell me that it was the way in which I did it but that is not so. Those who responded to me, did so in the very same way I was responding to them. The administrators got enough complaints on me though to ban me. So in a very real sense, people can be banned for speaking the truth, because there are many members of this board who dislike truth and dislike being told they are wrong.

Actually you posted an apology in that thread which was no longer visible on the first page. You never sought me out. You then proceeded to return to the same posting style. You were not banned for one comment. You were banned for a thread full of conduct. I have no problem forgiving you. The problem is you think that me forgiving you means me acting okay with everything you post. Just as you think living in unity in understanding means that people shouldn't tell you that you're wrong. Several attempts have been made to try to understand you. Several questions have been asked that you simply ignored because you knew that the answers would not put your conduct in a good light. You want to talk unity? I posted that we promote a new way forward with biblical discussion, focussing on getting the truth out of the passages we are discussing. You rejected that idea. That doesn't sound like unity or understanding. It sounds like lip service. Again, I harbor no bad feelings from that old thread. It's just that you are no different now. You give lip service to these great sounding topics like "unity", "understanding", and "love" and yet do not back them up with your actions. Over and over you would ask that certain people not respond to you, yet you would respond to them. You are inconsistent in your beliefs. You believe the things you say when they benefit or make you look good. That's what I see. This is not at all meant to be an attack. However I was called out, so I figured I'd set the record straight.
