Hi @KH777
Welcome to the forum side of Christian Chat.

Aw yes, the lovely delay of new threads publicly posting :LOL: don't worry, we've all been there.

Some helpful tips:

  • As you may have figured out by now, new threads (like this one you have started) will go into pending mode. Once the moderators view and approve it then it will post publicly for the world to see. Usually it's posting within a day. Oh, and after you submit it you might see see it on your list for a little while but then later not see it (and it's not public yet). Don't worry, that is normal.
  • Now for already posted threads (like this one now is) you can jump right into the conversation and post away. Those postings will be viewable by every one as soon as you click "post reply"
Sometimes the best way to learn how it works is to just click and see. Don't worry about 'getting it right' we've all been there. If you are unsure of how things work or where to find stuff, ask away. Lots of folks 'round here love helping.

Hope you enjoy your time here!

ok. Well, if you're easily triggered and "punchy" by what people might say, then fair warning: there are (unfortunately) people here who will try to rage bait you. It's unfortunate to find on a Christian site, but it happens.
But if your triggers are just from technology, don't worry, we've all have "I hate tech" moments. (It's how we respond to those moments that matters ;) )

More helpful tips:
  • At the bottom of your freshly posted comments is the "edit" button. That allows you to edit a post once you've posted it, HOWEVER... there is a 5 minute window before it is no longer an option. :unsure: Um, you have to have those edits posted before the 5 minute window is up because even if you start editing before the 5 minutes, if it's not posted before the 5 minutes is up it wont allow you to post the changes.


 
Lol, no worries I'm not easily triggered and I've been on other platforms and have experienced the same. I think it's sad to see the family of Christ argue more then unbelievers...opposing opinions interpretations and views should always be allowed in a agree to disagree manner....thanks again for the assistance 🙏
