None of this is accurate. There is no "ping" directly made to any ISP from the person who makes a report. This is just not how technology/internet forums work. This is a lame attempt to scare someone who doesn't understand these things.
I am not even talking about how I was reported here on this Site at all. I am talking about the result of being reported. A separate incident afterwards. I guess that was not obvious enough to You.

Typically, every Site pings the ISP of a new person that attempts to join. Everyone does it. And if they don't, then if it happens after you are allowed to join is another clue. But in most cases, I am talking about a second ping after that.

It's actually a bigger "red flag" if one is allowed to join and start participating and then gets pinged for a first time.

Let it go Uncle Mike. What did Jesus say about responding to wrongs done to you?

My personal understanding of how God is one and also triune. God is one in the idea that compared to other gods, God is singular. God is triune in the idea that God works in specific ways and those are operated by the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. But the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are God in unity and individually. In a better picture I could paint, the Father is the Voice, the Son is the Doer, and the Spirit connects us directly to God plus fulfills a similar role as the Son. The difference being one was in the flesh and the other is in the Spirit. Both are Comforters to us.

If God didn't reveal this stunning truth to us through His word, we would never understand it or come up with it. It would be undiscoverable by the natural reason of man.

PS. I hope the seas calm for ya a bit. I'm glad I didn't get hit that hard when I joined.

Jacob had fallen into utter disfavor. Reading your quote in context, it is preceded by:

Amo 6:8 The Lord GOD hath sworn by himself, saith the LORD the God of hosts, I abhor the excellency of Jacob, and hate his palaces: therefore will I deliver up the city with all that is therein.
Amo 6:9 And it shall come to pass, if there remain ten men in one house, that they shall die.
