Brothers and Sisters;
It is time to state the rules of the sand box. As the Sergeant-at-Arms, it is my obligation to make sure that we are civil
with each other. At each step of the way, I have been MORE that tolerant with the abuse of some. Those few have now taken to attacking the Moderators on a frequent basis. I wonder if these same people attack others in their church the way they have attacked the good folks of this list and the Moderators.
I am thumping the gavel and setting the rules, and the discipline for breaking the rules. It seems that some just do not get it, not want to get it. So I am going to explain the rules of the Sand Box. These are going to be strictly enforced, there are going to be no exceptions. We the moderators are not joking, playing around, or in the general jovial mood that we are accustomed to.
1) Whether you agree with someone or not, do not mock that person or belief.
We are going to show a respect that you folks seem unable to show, for one that is trying to like yourselves save people from a lost and dying world.
2) Mocking or showing disrespect to any of the authority that has been placed over this list.
We are in a ministry here, Tyler, Brian, and Myself, take this as a ministry. We are reaching a group of people that may not have a outlet to verbalize what is going on. We are working with a group of people that want to learn. We are working with a group of people that LOVE God, and want to experience more that love.
So from now on, I am going to warn once. The next incident, I am going to report to Tyler and/or Brian and they are going to place the offender on IGNORE for 1 week. Next offence 2 weeks, next 4 weeks and lastly removal from this group for 1 year. This will be a not compromise position. This goes for everyone from the Pastors on down. All personal attacks will be handled with the same out come. We are not going to show any favorites, the Moderators have grown tired.
If you want attack a position, great. Do not attack the person. I think that we have a great group, bit it is time for some real solid lines to be drawn.
