You have to understand something, as admin some people are easier to work with, they take their corrections and try to do what is right and make improvements.

Other posters can not even be reasoned with, because they justified for their poor behavior, we can not work with folks like this--there is no room for correction, no room for improvement and leaves us with no choice but to take all posting privileges away permanently.

I don't feel he should be banned for the actions that took
place on another forum.
what he did here was no worse then what others have been
banned for and was reinstated

Caston is now a personal acquaintance of mine and we still communicate on a regular basis.

He posted his views there and he did it as himself. The rules on that forum were and are different from AFF. I appreciate Administration here and the job they do. They want a different tone here. Neither management view is better, they are just different.

Caston was NOT a sideshow there, and was NOT just tolerated for laughs. And to suggest otherwise is simply wrong. On some threads, for example historical Pentecostals, he had some fascinating posts.

Some were offended by his posting style, but they also managed to give as good as they got.

Caston is not a misogynist. It is one of the sad facts of life that the majority of the “holiness standards” are aimed at women. Personally I don’t believe it’s a matter of subjugation as much as the drastic change in women’s fashions over the last 50 years.

Caston was never banned from the other forum and is welcome to post there any time he chooses, and he is aware of that.

I do not support many of his views and certainly not his manner of presentation, but I still consider him a brother.

As for this forum, Caston was not banned for his views but for his tone.

James he was encouraged to be on there for shock value
and to get folks coming over to "check it out" lol
I know i am RIGHT about this

Kind of like a "Thad"?



Mark,

You do not have access to the Admin room on Synadelfos and you do NOT know the discussions held there.

Sorry.

Just answer the Question

Do you think that if you or I(or anyone) got banned
on say GNC or posted things there that are against
the rules , we should also be banned on AFF ???

If i do one little thing wrong ya'll are so quick to give me
an infraction it aint funny but I guess the rules are only for a
few????
Me and how many others? Trying to campaign to put pressure on admin to do what YOU want is not going to work.

that's all. YES, I agree it was over the top but again, it was
tolerated in that setting and a lot of it was for laughs.

If he was allowed back, I think he should apologize and agree
not to be that drastic. my contention is that they don't want
him because of his beliefs which I don't think is fair
. I don't
agree with some of his beliefs either but I think he has a right
to believe it and express it just like Dan A does. I love Dan
but a lot of people think he out to destroy the doctrine and
they even left the forum over it. who left AFF because of Caston?
And this is where you are WRONG again. If that was true Bro. Epley wouldn't be here. We have NO PROBLEM with cons and you know that.

I set the record straight because of the way YOU are saying that Admin is unfair.

Also, I love the way you make up stuff like you were told 100% was against it. Mark, Mark, Mark......saying admin only means majority ruled.

Mark, you have no clue and this isn't abou how YOU feel.

Just a small point that you might be forgetting.......he was banned from here FIRST, then went to the other forum.

End of subject and we are being very gracious to not infract you for questioning admin.

Re: Who's on Your Bad List ??????????

Mark,

As far as I can tell, I am not on your current bad list. For this I am thankful. It is my understanding that you are upset with admin thinking they had something to do with the exodus of many major players who happen to be ultra-conservative or conservative. What I understand is that they chose to leave and begin their own forum and alienate all those with differing opinions. This is not unlike the issue with radio-broadcasting called "The Unfair Doctrine" by the house and senate. They are trying to pass a senate bill #1 to legislate the radio media from broadcasting conservative rhetoric that is not the Democratic viewpoint.

That is another story but...I just want to say St. Mark, that if is typical of many rigid conservatives to not want to play with the mod-liberals as it may challenge their doctrianl belief system.

I do wish they would return and let us "reason together" and not fight and belittle one another. We all love God and if our doctrine is sound then it can stand up under scrutiny.

Blessings, Rhoni

Mark I was NOT mad at you and told you I did not care you started that thread. I was upset at whoever gave you info that was on a private forum. I was never upset at you and said so many times on the thread.
