I also appreciate discussion in this thread but yeah, we shouldn't react like some of us did,
topic is too personal after all. Here's how it goes/went with me. I was raised in some mixture of muslim and communist ideologies, per example my dad was a member of communist party while his mom (my grandmother) was going to mosque daily, they NEVER had any issues with that which probably has something to do with descent behavior, understanding etc. I do know few prayers in arabic since that's how it's written in Kuran but also it always somehow felt wrong to pray in a language I know nothing about. And my natural thinking was : is there a point of praying on loud IF we think bad? So I came to the spot when I do pray just for the sake of tradition, in a way, I heavily believe that God (or anything else you believe its out there) can read our souls like we read comics, piece of cake. And finally, I try to avoid all groupings (religious) as much as I can, during our history those groups made or caused too much evil and I just can't stand being part of any. I do believe in GOOD tho since I can do it daily, name, color of the skin etc means nothing to me, humans are tricky beings and we need to provide good if we expect to receive good, that's what I believe in.

Obviously GMC is not the place for you anyway with that kind of thinking. There are young people here and GMC will respect that.

QUOTE (opeth.db @ Oct 13 2009, 08:02 PM)  Keep catering the site to the 11 year olds where that kind of moderating is needed. Now you can ban me too like you just did to Jer who I still find no fault into what he was saying. I guess that makes me just as guilty. We do have young people here and we mind them and we don't care to support bad attitude towards our fellow beings when a discussion can be held without for example calling someones belifs ridiciolus. Which is just one example. If you care to put people down and use bad language there are plenty of other forums where that's allowed. About Jer, you think you know what he was saying but you only know what you have seen in the forum. I guess he's ashamed to confess the rest to you. If you care to get banned that will happen if you publicly keep questioning how we moderate the forum. Just go ahead! -------------------- My bands homepage

QUOTE (Marek Rojewski @ Oct 13 2009, 08:28 PM) Instead of arguing in such manner on this topic, maybe open a new topic concerning the moderation of the forum, and let members discuss about what they like and what they would like to be changed. Maybe I am wrong, but I think that the way the forum is moderated should be as similar to what members would like as possible. After all members are the most important part of any community. We have a clear plan of how moderating is done and the full contents can be found in the posting guidelines. And to add we don't have any intention to call a vote for what should be changed and how it should be changed. Members vary and so does their sum of opinions, so we do have an ever changing mass of opinions on how the forum should be run. All in all we're doing out best to keep this a friendly place for men and women from differet countires, different religions and different ages where the least common denomiator are children. And we're pleased to see that almost all members care to follow the guidelines for use of language, after all it's easy for us adults and young adults in their late teens to adjust to withhold a civil language, for the kids. -------------------- My bands homepage

Just so I understand the situation, not wanting to undermine or offend anyone, have there been inappropriate posts that have been deleted by the moderation team?
