Hi I am Paul. I am a web site developer and I like to read. I built a **link removed** web site too.
Hope everyone is having a great day!
It's not an ad. I do build websites and I did make a chat web site. I thought this forum was for sharing information about yourself.
A) posting a hyperlink to competing chat site IS in direct violation of our rules.
13. No unauthorized advertising or soliciting or recruiting.
Please come to our chat rooms and forums for fellowship, not to try to advertise anything (not even in private messages to our chat room visitors) or recruit people for anything.
By "anything" we mean anything -- web sites, chat rooms, forums, facebook groups, churches, groups, doctrine, etc.
Also, please understand that many users have joined our chat rooms to try to solicit donations for their own charity (or some other Christian charity). There are so many charities people claim (e.g., orphanages in India, food for Africa, etc.) and we have no way to verify these things. And besides, people don't join our chat rooms to be solicited, so please refrain.
Regarding other sites, understand that we've had too many cases of new and existing chat sites -- even Christian sites -- trying to piggyback on our site. If you are trying to build up your own online fellowship (chat site or forum or facebook group or skype group whatever), leeching off of another online fellowship (by trying to recruit its users) is not the way to do it. Whether the recruiting is done directly or indirectly, the result is the same, and we reserve the right to enforce our rule.
B) we prohibit Admin of competing sites from being here without our knowledge and permission (another violation of our posted rules.
14. Admins, mods, and team members from other Christian chats/forums must seek our permission.
Team members from other Christian chat/forum sites (admins, moderators, "ministry teams", etc.) do NOT have the God-given right to be in ChristianChat.com without the knowledge and consent of the CC admin team. In our experience, such Christian chat/forum "ministry" sites whose teams are in our site ultimately become very piggybacked on CC (their teams recruiting or inviting CC members, either directly within CC, or indirectly outside of CC) -- and in almost every case, in denial about it. Typically such groups also begin to appoint CC members as their moderators, resulting in even more of a recruiting team and greater piggybacking on CC. Moreover, in our experience such groups also begin to empower banned ex-CC-members as their moderators, resulting in even more challenges for Christian Chat, when such sites staffed or partially staffed by malicious ex-CC-members are piggybacked on Christian Chat.
