Forum is very quirky and frustrating to use....

[nChrist]

Not that such is of no use mind you.  On the contrary.  It is often used to prevent search engines from scanning the pages of a forum, having certain pages be viewable by members only, and other such things.  But from a security standpoint CU's present handling of logged-in vs non-logged-in users is utterly useless.  It only frustrates people like me who might be inclined to visit the forum more often but don't.

Carlos,

You really don't have a clue about the security of Christians Unite, and you won't. Further, I doubt you are any kind of security expert. Since you are the only one who is bothered by whatever it is that you imagine, start your own forum and leave it wide open. One can be held responsible if there is a log on and a recorded IP number in many cases. Regardless, that's a moot issue since ADMIN will use whatever settings he sees fit. In other words, the matter is closed.

Blackeyepeas,

Why are you telling me to not say anything more without also telling others to do the same?  Why not just lock the thread?  Seems to me blackeyepeas that you are not being very reasonable with me in particular when all I am doing is simply responding to the previous poster.  

I have no problem with not discussing this any more and would have been content to just let it end as you and I had previously agreed on.  But if someone else posts something that I consider to be innacurate regarding this issue would you have me just keep my mouth shut?

Is that the way to allow for free discussion on a forum?  Such that some are supposed to keep their mouth shut while others are allowed to say something else about a matter.  

Have I been rude?  Have I exhibited un-Christlikeness in my expression of thoughts on this thread?  Have I been divisive?  If so then please correct me by pointing to what verses would help me see that.  Instead of just telling me to shut up.  

Anything less seems to me to be overbearing.

Carlos123,

Talk about it all you want. For me, the matter is closed, and I won't be discussing it further.

No problem blackeyepeas.  I don't appreciate the way you are handling this but I can sort of understand it given the way the forum recently had a major conflict over Catholic / Protestant issues.  Perhaps any over-reaction on your part to what I was saying might have been due to having just gone through a major conflict and not wanting to get into another.  If so I can understand that.  

I really don't have time to go into this issue of quirkiness anymore myself so I would likewise just as soon drop this whole thread though I might still respond if someone says something else about it.  I have no intention of sticking around on the forum once the thread I am discussing things on ("Are the spiritual gifts around for today or not?") has run it's course.  

Best regards.  

Carlos
