I came to Christian Chat to learn and to be surrounded with like-minded individuals. I see many posts of interest, but after reading through the first page I sometimes find that the thread has taken a hard turn because of a few who are more interested in getting in the last word or retaliating for some wrongdoing.
Revenge is not ours, so retaliation isn't an option. Getting in the last word smacks of pride and we all know where pride can lead. If one has a problem with what is said, then one can disagree. However, failing to make one's disagreement repeatedly or more heated does not signify silent consent.
I often visit these forums on a mobile device. The mobile screen, being smaller than I would like, requires that I scroll more often and this issue is compounded when a thread is full of one-upmanship.
The favor I'd like to ask is for everyone to utilize the private message system in order to avoid filling a thread with off-topic content. Retaliatory posts and one-upmanship are beginning to get old, I don't read them and having to scroll past them is burdensome to others. We're like a big family here, and I feel it is best to make things easy for others if possible.
Thanks for reading
