I think what the elephant (love you) meant was what I also thought: it's quite an accusation to call this a fake forum, but I think you didn't mean it, otherwise you shouldn't have returned.
I did that once with another forum because I believed and a lot of others that it was really fake. The owner and moderators were exchristians stirring fights with socks that were allowed there, trolling the christians and banning them when they gave great testimonies and did absolutely nothing wrong.

How am I being rude, snarky or condescending by trying to show you the error of your ways? I only speak the truth. If you can't handle being criticized without lashing back, that's your prob, not mine. And I've noticed you DO lash out quite a bit on here, when you're disagreed with. Accept the constructive criticism I gave, and move on.

I wasn't slinging insults. I made an assessment based on age, content of his post, and his complete disregard for the reconciliation which occurred. Is the man 65? I don't know--but that's the age HE gave to this website to be displayed by his username. Is it insulting that I assume that older people are more likely (than younger people) to omit refreshing a thread prior to posting their reply? Even more importantly, did this man feel insulted by my words? My intent was not to insult, but to shed light on the fact that he was behind in the conversation.
You accuse me of 'slinging insults' and say I'm adding to the problem (which was already resolved) and finish by adding:
I'm not sure what to conclude from your words here, Blue. Constructive criticism is usually friendly and involves both positive and negative--it's supposed to improve the outcome. I guess I can see that you think I could have been kinder with my words towards p_rehbein--but would you "Wo-man up..." and consider the context, please?!
[Snarkiness added for emphasis and humor.]

Yes the problem WAS resolved. THEN you added to it by insulting P. His age has nothing to do with what he wrote, nor does his computer skills. I'm not known for always being nice on here. Sometimes harsh words are more effective than glossed-over ones are.. I'm glad to see that you realize you could have worded your reply to him better, though. Did you stop to think maybe he simply didn't see your reply? So yes, it IS insulting to insinuate that older people might forget to hit the refresh button, or even simply just miss seeing a post. I'm sure YOU have missed seeing a post or two in your time here, yet did anyone say "oh it's because you're 32, so you must not have adequate computer skills"? I didn't think so. Age had nothing to do with what his response was. In answer to your question, I DO "woman up" on here, but at least I can receive constructive criticism. That's something you SEEM to not like to do.
What I don't understand is this: TWICE now, you have left saying that this is a fake forum, full of fake christians and you're tired of all the attacks on here. SO why did you feel you had to come back, if you feel so strongly about this site? If CC is such a den of vipers, why step back in time after time, and keep getting rebitten?

oh don't use those scales...you and I would share the revolving door if that was the measurement
be yourself and don't worry because there are plenty of people who won't like that either because some people think they own the place
be polite...as you have been the last time you were here...I found your posts pretty good
the first time, not so much LOL
but we are all supposed to extend a welcome no matter what...as Christ in God has forgiven us
now, there is currently a twit in the BDF posting thread after thread...many not appropriate for this site and yet he is allowed to continue
I don't get this place half the time...why do the nations rage and why do the mods let crap like that go on
so, pick and choose and remember, other people here are not your mirror...

haha
I took counselling courses about oh...15 years or so ago....it was determined I was an excellent communicator
the goal should be for the person to express themself properly by actually being in touch with their own thoughts and feelings and low and behold, most folks cannot do that
some people here just run roughshod over every post with chains rattling behind them...the chains are the prison they are in them self and they are desperate to wrap them around anyone they can
should we make it a pre-requiste that all future members must take and pass a course on proper communication while we ferret out the loosers we have now? (note...loosers is said slightly tongue in cheek....some folks are just rude)
I always ask for clarification but I find that is rarely extended...people come on like gang busters with insults and names and throw Bible verses like grenades...
it is never going to change except on a personal basis and most people seem to think it's the other person
sometimes it is the other person...but when 20 people are telling you that it is you, well, maybe you should listen (generic you)

Perhaps Sirk has shed some light on why we do it.
...and, by the way, I never said anything about fake-anything the first time I left. I've just never corrected you, because it didn't seem important. But, since you keep repeating it--I'd like to clarify now.
