I'm voting "Dont ban" but with the stipulation that thread making is revoked.

I don't believe it would be out of line to contact him/her and explain the reasons behind it. Also, I would keep an eye on their posts in other threads in case they take the crusade from the posts he/she starts and moves it into every post that is made. That seems like reason enough for a permanent ban at that point.

Purely religious posts should be in the DC or Romper room forum.
I personally having an issue with other people making moral judgements on my choices in life.

I voted for banning because it's the best of only 2 options. I believe a better course would be a group shunning.

One thread every two days isn't ban-worthy, IMO. Close all of the parody threads & threads complaining about it.

His threads aren't filling the board... it's all those freakin' comedians...

No, simply put him on "ignore". Chiefsplanet prides itself on being a sort of anything goes BB, and I'd hate to see the Planet turn into a board that endorses censorship based solely on an unpopular point of view.

I wonder if he was making threads advocating homosexuality, if the most ardent detractors of these threads would feel the same, or just call anyone who opposes them homophobes.

Why can't Believer be warned of his actions and if he continues then suspend him for a month, a second offense, then 6 months? Then banning if it continues?
Plenty of warning and swift strong action that should apply to all.

Good points.

I must admit to having forgotten the Ignore feature. It's been years since I thought anyone was worthy of ignoring. I can't actually remember the last one.

He hasn't done anything other than be annoying.

He hasn't threatend anyone. He hasn't posted pics of men with a louisville slugger in their anus.

He's overzealous and annoying, but thats not illegal here. It would be nice if he'd choose to cut down on the threads, at least in number.

Bvr is not helping his cause here....its not the message, its the delivery that I find offputting, even as another religious person.

Its not unlike having some Mormons outside my door shouting at me all day after I've politely said "no thank you, I'm good here".....eventually, they're going to catch some wrath.

I voted "NO"...if I allow this, what next? Pretty soon you won't let me view my online Bible :p

For the record, I am a Christian/believer and I *do* believe in proselitizing. IMO, however, 99% of proselitizing is done by setting an example with the way you live...not by semi-anonymously telling people that they are sinners. With that said, there have been times where I have asked people "out of the blue" to study the Bible or come to church, but it is by far the least effective method. So I can't fault Believer for his effort, however misguided some may believe it is.

...and that's all I gotta say 'bout that.

That can be accomplished by all those who are upset with him simply placing him on ignore. I'm convinced that people don't do this because the they themselves want to fuel the fire.

While I'm technically in line with Stevie and Greg, I have to say, the group shunning sounded funny.


Group: "YEAH!!!!! Let's turn him into an Ostrich!"


























You know, ostracize him..... Ok, ok I need more coffee.

Well, there ya go. :D
