veritasluxmea Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Plot twist: dUSt is voted off the forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatherineM Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I think I recommended someone once. He was delusional and thought he was the second coming of Christ. That's not what concerned me though. He also was publicly saying his divinity had been certified by a Catholic bishop that he was naming. No need to feed his psychosis, or have someone google that bishop's name and have his posts pop up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amppax Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 And here I thought people were going to support this idea. Yup, nope, not voting anyone off the island. Not even FP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maximillion Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I wouldn't vote anyone either. It seems to me that we have rules............. It also seems to me, reading some posts and making some surmises, that these existing rules are not being applied. Don't know why. Can speculate........ Apply what exists, consistently, rigorously and with as much impartiality as can be managed and you don't need to mess with the rest. As for banning everyone and getting them to sign up again......a rose by any other name! People will stay true to their habits regardless of what banner title or name they have. DEAL with the trouble makers. In VS I have seen people permitted to post over and over and over again even after people have objected and the posts have been reported. More mods?

mortify ii Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Purges never seem to work out the way they're meant too. Opposing forces need eachother, even to help eachother evolve. I just stay true to myself and speak my mind regardless of which side of the fence I may fall on, the key is to respect one another's difference of opinion.

add Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 do what he said: Mark 2:17 When Jesus heard it, he said to them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

Jaime Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I'm waiting for the day that JasJis comes back! Then everything will be cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anomaly Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I'm waiting for the day that JasJis comes back! Then everything will be cool! If you believe in the dead coming back to life, then that is a reasonable hope. ;). But TBH, I don't think he would visit PM. You are a kind man. I hope you and the Mrs are finding much joy and happiness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dUSt Posted August 1, 2014 Author Share Posted August 1, 2014 You people don't seem to understand me. You keep saying stuff like, "just deal with the people causing problems". I don't know who is causing problems. Believe it or not, I rarely get a report about a member being disruptive, but I can't count the number of times I've heard "I'm leaving phatmass because of certain members". OK, that is not helpful to me. If I don't know who these mystery people driving everyone away are, I can't rightfully deal with them. So, I created a form. It's getting used. Lots of familiar names on it. Some of these people are staples of the phatmass community. Some names have surprised me. Whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nihil Obstat Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 It would certainly be worth finding out which members are apparently sending all sorts of harassing private messages to people they disagree with, as CatherineM and Nunsense mentioned lately.

Shheesh, and I thought us Brits were supposed to be the stiff upper lipped ones! If someone is doing something obnoxious you can't moan about it if you did nothing about it.

mortify ii Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 So are you saying God needs the devil? No, God has no equal, but we need the devil to serve as a catalyst for our own spiritual evolution, otherwise why does God permit the devil to exist?

Credo in Deum Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 While I do believe the devil is permitted by God to roam around and tempt us, I trust that God has a good reason for this permission. I personally do not believe though, that we need the devil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
