WHY???????????????

[Steve Epley]

The Serpent Seed thread has more interest than most of the threads have had on here forever and now you need a ccon dog to find it why?????
If y'all don't want Bible discussions say so and I will leave it is really that simple.

[Steve Epley]

Forget it I will just leave. I apologize for trying to have a meaningful discussion on this forum. Look at the views and responses.

If you would be more patient brother. We DO allow these discussions, but this is a DEBATE and we have a specific place for this kind of stuff that does not disrupt the general FELLOWSHIP area. It was moved not deleted or censored, to the Debate area

I have to say I get so sick and tired of these kinds of responses. You can have a meaningful discussion here. You guys need more patience. Good grief...Bro Epley moving this thread had NOTHING at all to do with you personally.

Prax look at the interest and now I have to hunt to find it. But I will not offend y'all but some folks are not really interested in many things discussed here
but we do not squalk. But I would rather drop the matter than get out my GPS to find the thread.:happydance
I will kindly submit to the will of the Adms. but have y'all not noticed how dead this place has become? Just a thought please don't be offended.

Why do you think it's become dead, Steve?

I can draw you a map :bliss

Seriously though, there is a link left to it. All one has to do is go to the debate area.

Actually it's not so dead. You have to realize this is a forum with many sections like most forums. Having it in the debate area, which is open to all, is the best solution. You know how many people from Ultra Cons to Ultra Libs complain about the doctrinal discussions we have allowed here? Our solution is simply to move it to an area that everyone knows will be about discussion different doctrines including those that offend some here.

[Steve Epley]

There is nearly 2800 views and 350 posts in 2 days look at the rest?

Elder, some just want to fight & argue rather than discuss.
Sad.
JMHO

[rgcraig]

Also, you might check "new posts" and that will always show you the high traffic threads.

Hopefully, you have found the debate area and you will see there are many good discussions there. It's not just the Fellowship Hall.

I just invite you to look at the views and posts on the other threads. Case closed.

[AmericanAngel]

Bro Steve, it ok. I understand. But this has BEEN a long and enlighting debate, yes? I have learned some things over this. I'm still here. I like studies. And it's my decision to not have anything futher to do with "that" perticular one.
So, now...take a deep breath in...now let it out. Shake it out Brotha!

I can find plenty of threads that have had a lot of activity recently Elder...That is beside the point. As I already explained, we have UCs and ULs whining about us allowing certain doctrines to be discussed and we decided a LONG time ago.....before we changed owners even, to create a special area just to house those discussions

[rgcraig]

We get complaints that we allow this discussion here because it's false to the majority here, so we moved it to the debate area for those that want to continue the debate can.

Then, we get complaints that we've moved this.

You can't please everyone, but we do what we think is best for the whole.

[Steve Epley]

Look I like you folks most of you I have been posting with since FCF(which was great by the way) but you complain because folks are no longer posting then when a thread is active you move it to the back forty. Honesty I did not remember a debate area you know why NO ONE GOES there look at it. It is just confusing. I am not trying to be difficult but everyone is NOT interested in everyday stuff? Everyone is nice to me. Dan and myself have butted heads and Adino but it made for large threads. This is just a hint please don't be offended.

[freeatlast]

Bring the seed of the serpent back..please !!!

We aren't offended.

But, just as you said above - - not everyone is interested in everyday stuff - - that's why there is the debate area.

I believe now that you've found it you'll find that you've missed out of a lot of good debate that you never knew existed.

No one is complaining about folks not posting. I believe you are the one that said it was dead and it's not.

Amen, I have been off a few days and can't seem to catch up or figure out what's going on!

[Rico]

Brother Epley, I didn't realize this place was supposed to be a contest of post counts. Good grief! The thread wasn't deleted. They just moved it. They do that with threads around here. I can start a thread on a current event and eventually it gets moved to the newsroom. It's not that big a deal. People who want to debate the issues know where to go to find the debate.

We are not complaining because folks are not posting and if they are not posting it is not because they can't find their way around a forum. We did NOT stop or censor or delete that thread Elder.

For hopefully the last time we HAVE been doing this for a long time now even when this board was under the old ownership. People were complaining about non Apostolic doctrines being debated in the main FELLOWSHIP area and we made a special place just for them to hash this stuff out and it is OPEN to all.

AGain Elder...we have been doing this since almost the day the board was opened. AT NFCF we also moved threads to other areas.

The topic is STILL OPEN. YOu can STILL discuss it. Good grief. I go to the debate area all the time. OThers here do too. If you want to discuss or debate doctrines just look in that area.

It is NOT confusing. It is very orderly. IN fact it is MORE confusing to have EVERY TOPIC under the Sun all crammed into this one area. Topics started just a day ago can be several pages back because people are starting new topics.

What does that prove? lol

Again Elder I will volunteer to draw a map just for those that are not technically inclined enough to click a link to another area. When you read a book do you get frustrated when you have to flip a page? Wouldn't it be nice of the whole book was on just one page? :bliss

Come on, it's not that hard bro. Just click the link and discuss it.

[rgcraig]

LOL - well, at least I see you have found where the thread is and you can continue the debate!

Maybe this thread will generate more folks to see what the fuss is all about and visit the debate area more now!

I don't go to specific forums. I click on 'view new posts' and they all come up, regardless what forum they are in. That's much easier, I think.

I don't go to the debate area, I am afraid of the dark....................:reaction

[OneAccord]

:tissue
It was me. They moved it to the debate area because they don't like me here. I'm not a debater so they moved it to the debate room so I wouldn't post on the thread anymore. Thats it... effectively immediately.....I will.....






































just continue posting my little ol' Alabama heart out! :bliss

[TRFrance]

I think it's a good idea to have a separate debate area and fellowship area.

Obviously theres a lot of debating that ends up going on on the fellowship area anyway, but.... well it's still a good idea/concept anyway.

The difference being serious debate. Just fussing and debating in most of these threads aren't considered serious debating.

To Epley a button is what you use to keep your belly from showing through your sports coat :toofunny

[Bro-Larry]

You can't see the debate room unless you are logged in. Those who lurk without logging in don't see it.

PS: It was a little slow here before DR Vaughn came along. LOL

:bliss:bliss Heyyyyyyy, I only read this board from New Posts or Today's Post at the top and I can see the Debate Room even when not logged on.
I do not have time to read it any other way. What am I saying? I could not get to everything on this board!! I am probably missing the best!:bliss:bliss
