Question for SF Posters

Spirituality


I’ve just been informed by a regular poster in here that if I respond to his posts directly, he will report me to the site admins.

He made this threat after I politely and substantively exposed a boneheaded post of his for the vapid nonsense it was.

Is it against the TOS to respond *with substance and not insults* to someone’s posts?


@PB1022

I wouldn’t worry about it, if I were you. If you respond w substance and not insults to any post, I am sure the mods will judge the merits of any complaint fairly.

Thanks for reply, moonbus.

Second-to-last post page 3 and first post page 4 in the “Is this God’s eternal plan?” thread.

A regular poster in here who shall remain nameless (πŸ‘» ) made the same mistake Bigdogg made four years ago, and, when I pointed out his error, got his knickers in a twist.

I saw that post before I posted here.

I was trying to be humorous about an unfortunate circumstance.

Seems this forum is full of them. 😬


@josephw I just say what I want. What's the worst that can happen?

James 3:6
And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell.

Nothing to worry about I guess! 😜

When a poster has been banned under a previous account for malicious trolling and under their current account has just returned from a 2 week ban for trolling, they need to be particularly mindful not to troll people who have no interest in communicating with them.

Exposing one of your boneheaded posts for the vapid nonsense it is in a polite and non-insulting manner isn’t “trolling” you or “communicating” with you. It’s educating you.

Responding to someone’s posts isn’t a violation of the TOS.



So calling someone a “prick” is allowable under the TOS, but calling someone a “toxic, drunken mess” is not permitted.

The TOS should include a list of insults that are permitted and that are not permitted.

Or does it all depend on who does the name calling?

I agree, if someone is going to get ugly over a simple and respectful response to their post, I doubt the admin. folks here will judge you too harshly. It might be a good idea not to respond to this guy for awhile until he cools down a bit.
