Why has....

**bondred** · 26-3-12,13:37

The born again Christian thread been closed in OT?

Just a reason would be nice instead of just closing it...

Mods any reason?

usually when a thread about religion is removed it is because somebody overstepped the mark or it was heading down a path that could of caused outrage.

That would be about right. Having just had a look at it, the last post is an example of why it needed to be closed. The Catholic Cardinals thread went down a similar route as well. I know there are a few that are having a very good discussion as well; however, if some keep reacting to a particular poster and then letting the thread descend into chaos, it is very difficult to leave it unattended. We did that previously and its come back. Now I appreciate that some of you would rather one poster be banned, but however misguided his opinion may be, it is a very difficult call for some of us to make as it could just be someone with a fervent faith and nothing more i.e. not on a winding up mission.

Unless there is some assurance that posters will not rise to a particular poster and react, I think the thread is better off with a break. I'm happy to re-open it otherwise. As an aside, I'm just speaking for myself and another mod may decide otherwise.

I am done with him, I know I asked him a question again, but he did call me a liar for some unknown reason and I just wanted to know why.

I am more then happy to ignore his posts and carry on with a sensible thread, pretty others are as well.

I'm happy to re-open, but if there are issues, it would be appreciated if one of you could report it so something can be done perhaps.

There is another poster in there now causing a derailment. Partially my fault for entertaining him, but maybe another warning from a mod will keep the conversation back on topic. I feel horrible for my part in all of this.

I am keeping an eye on it. Like I said in the thread, a short "interlude" isn't so much of a problem, but if it goes on too long the thread will need modding.

Oh, and

Chat...chat?...Why the effrontery...one is here for feedback, old chap.

Good day, Sir.

Suddenly gets deleted and told to join another thread?

That thread has been open for 2 weeks, and has has multiple mods post in it since the start, why is it deleted now after 2 weeks and atleast 6 pages?

If you want to merge it with the other thread then fine, but this just seems pointless?

Nevermind, seems a mod deleted the wrong post and has since restored it, move along nothing to see here

What are you talking about?

It is still there?

My fault... I meant to delete the athiests thread and somehow clicked the Christian thread. Angel must have seen it in the 5 second gap it took me to restore it.
