I only post pictures that I don't care that everyone sees.

If they use it to be silly or disrepectful, then that's their problem.

That's one reason I don't welcome newbies - you have no idea if it's someone pulling our chains.

It frustrates me when I think I'm talking to a newbie, and then find out that it's just an old poster with a new user name. But, if that's what floats their boat....

I think that tops the list for me.

I would like to say, in light of the thread title, that the decision of the admins concerning homosexuality as they recently announced in a sticky was a good decision. I am with you admins!

Two thumbs up, plus my "thumb-toe," as my boy used to call his big toe when he was a preschooler.

Noted and posted in the admin area so that others will read it too.

Okay, sounds like another thread. Maybe if he was on here still someone would have replied to the Baptism of the HG threads out there recently.

Holy Ghost evidenced by tongues -- but not essential? You don't need the Holy Ghost to be saved? Romans 8?

Same here, esspecially since I am using my real name and and refuse to use a pseudonym.

I haven't lied here.

In fact, sometimes, I think I share too much. Sometimes, I don't share enough.

Sometimes, my thoughts are not very Apostolic, or even Christian for that matter.

Sharing them here would just let the whole world know how deeply I need Jesus... everyday.

Temperance is a great character trait, along with openness and honesty. There just needs to be a balance. I don't share many of my struggles, but I will agree and tell you I need Jesus more deeply every day.

I remember when it was a vibrant, fun-filled forum. I remember passionate arguments and crazy amounts of traffic. So....what happened?

Now, I can be gone a week, come back, and find that the same old topics are still on the front page.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I will tell you why it's just not as interesting to me as it used to be. It has nothing to do with ownership or admins. The ownership and admins here are great folks.

Here's a few reasons why AFF is just not as interesting.

1. Start a new thread about a serious PENTECOSTAL topic, and within two or three posts you have a few confirmed atheists, universalists or confirmed homosexual agendists posting ignorant, profane crud.

2. The forum has become too political.

3. There is no common bond here. AFF is not an AFF.
