dUSt Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 I am looking to ban some members. Seniority, longevity, tags don't matter. Phatmass needs to be a positive place that glorifies the Church. Members who do not contribute to this, I want gone. On the main Phorum index page you will see a form. After prayer, please use this form if you strongly feel that specific members are responsible for a volatile environment here on phatmass that does not contribute, but rather, hinders in glorifying the Church. I will be using the results of this form to make some tough decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AccountDeleted Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 This will take some heavy duty prayer. It just seems like such an overwhelming responsibility to condemn anyone to being banned. But I can understand why you are doing it. I was thinking that your idea in another thread was interesting -- getting rid of ALL members and then having us start all over by registering again. Maybe we'd act differently towards each other if we had to choose new names and didn't think we know who everybody is from years and years of posts. When will you decide?

Ash Wednesday Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 This will take some heavy duty prayer. It just seems like such an overwhelming responsibility to condemn anyone to being banned. I thought about it but I'm not sure I will be able bring myself to vote another person off the island. My kneejerk reaction is to consider my own faults before voting to have someone else sent away, but that's just me. The first stone and all that. But, have at it.

Perigrina Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 I think it is a great idea. The phorum needs something drastic done to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrossCuT Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 This seems like a pretty drastic move. I dont think that there are anyone on here so horrible that they deserve to be banned. May being stripped of a title will be more sufficient to get the point across? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sponsa-Christi Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Just wondering, is there a review or an appeals process for the soon-to-be banned? I.e., do the mods look for evidence of a history of troublesome posts, or is anyone whose name is submitted banned instantly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil Red Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I thought about it but I'm not sure I will be able bring myself to vote another person off the island. My kneejerk reaction is to consider my own faults before voting to have someone else sent away, but that's just me. The first stone and all that. But, have at it. agreed. even people who I'd like to see voted off - I then think of all the good posts they've made. prayerful posts. helpful posts. I just can't bring myself to do it. how about just taking the guidelines seriously - and them actually getting enforced? those who are serious offenders will be banned in short order anyway.

Perigrina Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I'm not seeing this as voting people off. I figure I'm putting forward names for Dust to consider/investigate. He'll make the decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Credo in Deum Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 (edited) If it was me I would put the submitted names on a big piece of cork-board. Then I would pick up a dart, close my eyes, and let God dictate the final outcome. Edited August 1, 2014 by Credo in Deum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatherineM Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Except for a couple of things, I haven't really been paying attention to the drama. I know a lot of my friends have disappeared, and it doesn't seem the same anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
