Make the Rules - unOFFICIAL ADVENTIST FORUM

Welcome with open arms fellow believers who don’t see things the way you do.
And don’t jump all over them every time they do or say something you don’t agree with
– even when it seems that they are strong on opinions but weak in the faith department.
Remember, they have their own history to deal with. Treat them gently. Romans 14.1: The Message

Sexual issues to be discussed in the private forum for sex (access available from staff) 3. Political issues to be discussed in World Affairs or Politics forum. 4. In disagreeing with other members, focus on the topic not other members. No name calling. 5. Those violating the rules will be subject to a timeout. Timeouts maybe 7 to 30 days. A warning may or may not be given depending on the offense. 6. Have fun - avoid posting when angry. _________________________ I reserve the humble right to be wrong.

Perhaps we need to set out the ground rules first before making the steps toward discipline. *Shane, this is not criticism of you--just thinking aloud on my part. Hope you take it as such.

Shane Administrator of Foro Adventista Registered: 02/02/02 Posts: 16291 Loc: Rio Grande Valley, Texas	We have rules now and we have disciplinary procedures. It is just that nothing is in writing. What I seem to see here is a call to put something in writing. I don't like censorship and hope we don't have to do much of that. _________________________ I reserve the humble right to be wrong.

Liz Registered: 04/19/05 Posts: 432 Loc: Texas	Originally Posted By: Bravus This thread is for people to post their proposed sets of rules. It is not for critiquing others' proposed rules, or for arguments. I just want to see what all those who have called for sets of rules have in mind: so stand up and show us. I believe everyone was to write down what rules were important to them. Eventually a recurring theme will emerge, and thus the "official" rules will be born. _________________________ For what will a man be profited, if he gains the whole world, and forfeits his soul?

I think it would be a good rule to only be able to propose rules during the day time.
