I run a forum, it was actually one of the originals from which FCF sprang which morphed into NFCF and from whose membership sprouted AFF. I am not giving out the link because I don't want many people here to join there...

The UPCI has a men's ministry forum for men only. I used to post there, but the ownership is UPCI and the admin is very heavy handed in what is allowed to be discussed. It's basically an "amen corner." Since it's owned by the UPCI, you would expect a constant regurgitation of the company's interests - it's their right. They moved it to a new site about a year or so ago and I never renewed my enlistment when they did.

They are open to "scriptual" discussion, but no, they would never allow the sarcastic bantering that goes on in other places. If you don't like the answers you get your more than welcome to debate scripture but they will not cater to tit for tat arguing. They have a very low member count because of this. No drama = no fun .

In fact I think that the insinuation of "hateful" Pentecostals is coming mostly from the fertile imaginations of bitter, backslidden ex Apostolics who are constantly trying to find a way to justify their actions. ~ strait shooter

Only if you agree with their specific understanding of a particular scripture. I found that posts by some specific people who actually contributed intelligent, berean points of view were often shouted down, edited by admin or deleted altogether, while another character over there (I think his screen name was Ryder, or something like that), who was a blatant judaizer, were allowed to devolve to the point where the conclusion was that we should reinstate the dietary laws of the Mosaic code and men should not trim the corners of their beards.
When Doug J ran the forum, there was a great deal more openness to differing views. Since Jim L took over though, there was a marked change in administration... a much more heavy-handed approach to topics that challenged the status quo. I had never before seen so many locked and deleted threads ANYWHERE. It really is not a discussion forum. It's an affirmation forum - no real discussion. Very oppressive, IMO.
I should qualify, though, that I have not even lurked there in a few years, so things may have changed. I would be surprised, though.
