Misuse of moderators rules...

Layth

Peace,

I asked a few questions in my post...which are not answered by the rules....you know layth can you explain how your rules correlate with the quran you so belovedly claim to uphold...?

The above was your initial concern...

Below was my responce

Therefore, to answer your question more directly, the rules of the forum are to prevent fasaad/corruption to preserve an atmosphere where God can be served and His laws can be studied and His name can be glorified (may He be glorified for ever).

Serving God and learning His system are more important to a Muslim than making acquanteinces with people who have taken this worldy life as fun and games.

`Leave alone those who have taken their system as fun and games, and this worldly life has tempted them. And remind with it that a soul will suffer for what it has earned, it will not have besides God any supporter nor intercessor; and even if it brings all justice, none will be accepted from it. These are the ones who have suffered with what they have earned; for them will be a boiling drink, and a painful retribution for what they had rejected. (670)

Good luck in your quest as a humanist...

Peace layth. You still havent read my post or answered the questions...Never mind...
I will leave you in peace...Good luck with your 'inhuman' interpretations...
I hope you change... group

There there, enquirer, it's gonna be alright. http//i28.photobucket.com/albums/c236/zenje/taptap.gif

You know as much as you fight and complain about this forum, the members, the mods/admin, and even the basic message, one would actually be inclined to thinking that you would up and leave, but we know better dont we.

What's a misue anyway? confused

unknownuser

Peace zenje. I corrected the misue to misuse...Funny how all your talent can only point to a typo rather than an effective reply... bravo people of justice..... rotfl

unknownuser

Peace mods. Oh,and im still waiting for the copy of the warning from the deleted posts,which the moderator was supposed to pm me with...

unknownuser

Peace mods. Back-ups i believed they are called....Any news on the back-ups?...The quran recommends to stick to our words to people,no? I requested a copy of the 'appropriate' back-up,even by pm will do.....
If you mods dont want to be transparent,or forthcoming thats fine...
Take it easy.... group

Elena

Peace enquirer,

Peace mods. Oh,and im still waiting for the copy of the warning from the deleted posts,which the moderator was supposed to pm me with...

the rules allow them to delete posts without previous warnings, savage_carrot said to you in the other thread about this same topic, the thread that has been closed, she quoted this

Rule #6 When posting a reply to a thread, stay on topic. On occasions this may be allowed, but if there is an ongoing debate or discussion in a thread, then any post which deviates from the topic will be removed WITHOUT notice in the interest of the debate.

I understand you feel upset when the Neo's post in this thread are very unrespectful and they haven't been deleted and many other posts in the forum contain unrespect and remain.

I wouldn't take it too seriously tought , if you let me a piece of advice, I thik it is imposible to educate the persons that ignore something as basic as polite way, it is so basic, first grade school lesson. Th piece of advice is ignore them. With respect to the mods that delete not totally equilibrated, give them some time, it is a boring task and I think they are not used to it, at least they didn't do before, they started implementing the rules after the mess that happened in the forum short time ago.

unknownuser

Peace Elena. Thank you for your good advice... )

unknownuser

Peace all. Im glad to say that one of the moderators sent me back my posts for clarification of the 'deleting' issue...
There are still several issues that need clarifying,about the 'role' and 'scope' of moderators,and their transparency/accountability/manners/consistency....but i will leave it to their consciences and capabilities to decide what to do...
Peace all. And i try not to hold any ill-feelings for anyone...

unknownuser

I can't see why mine and enquirers posts on bro wakas's thread were deleted coz there was no debate going on, the thread had been dead for ages so i thought it was no big deal, especially since someone started talking about treating parents amicably but HIS post was not deleted but mine and enquirers were, I find it SO sexist how you left HIS post (even though it was off-topic) but deleted mine and sis enquirers. You should try adding "Don't be sexist" to the rules you give to the mods Layth.

Peace,

Peace layth. I have read the rules...I asked a few questions in my post...which are not answered by the rules....you know layth can you explain how your rules correlate with the quran you so belovedly claim to uphold...? If you cant,then thats fine,i know the reason...

Gods Scripture gives its followers leeway to deal with the mifsidoon` (troublemakers/corrupters).

The recompense of those who fight God and His messenger, and seek to make corruption in the land, is that they will be killed or crucified or that their hands and feet be cut off on alternate sides or that they be banished from the land; that is a disgrace for them in this world and in the Hereafter they will have a great retribution. (533)

The punishment in real life ranges from banishment to killing depending on the circumstances and the level of fasaad/corruption involved...

c'mon Layth you can't compare a forum to the big bad world rotfl

And the punishment must never be worse then the crime 16/126.

The verse you quoted was referring to heinous crimes and not people violating forum rules so i can't understand why you quoted that confused

I know that even the people who claim to translate the 'Quran alone' without outside sources still are influenced by their background but you can hardly call people that violate forum rules mifsidoon rotfl rotfl

The other day someone told me that in Arabia they chop peoples heads off every Friday for "committing crimes" and they call people to witness it, i started laughing at how ridiculous it sounded...but..... does that really happen? confused

peace,
sugar

zenje

I find it SO sexist how you left HIS post (even though it was off-topic) but deleted mine and sis enquirers.
rotfl Now that's funny!

unknownuser

Peace zenje. You are an administrator,and that is your only reaction...? What about the verses on sarcasm and mocking....? How do you explain 4911?
Peace all. ps;sugar,I am male... )

you sound like a girl.

Layth

Peace,

c\\\'mon Layth you can\\\'t compare a forum to the big bad world

And the punishment must never be worse then the crime 16/126.

Banning is not even close to the crime of disrupting the study/discussion of Gods words and disrupting the praising of His name (in-fact, it is insignificant when compared to the reality that people who mock and ridicule Gods Scripture/laws will face when they meet Him).

And those who rejected said Do not listen to this Quran and talk over it that you may succeed. We will let those who have rejected taste a severe retribution. And We will recompense them for the evil that they used to do. Such is the recompense for God\\\\\\\'s enemies; the Fire shall be their eternal abode, as a recompense for their discarding Our revelations. (4126-2

Do you think there is a difference between people mocking the Scripture in a forum or if they do it face to face?

Will the God of Abraham treat such people differently because they mocked His words on-line rather than mocking His words face-to-face?

The verse you quoted was referring to heinous crimes and not people violating forum rules so i can\\\'t understand why you quoted that

It is speaking of fasaad (corruption/mischeif)...Nowhere does a word translated as heinous crimes appear in the text...Fasaad is given as the opposite of making right (see 26152)

I know that even the people who claim to translate the \\\'Quran alone\\\' without outside sources still are influenced by their background but you can hardly call people that violate forum rules mifsidoon

My mistake...I should do as you do and make jest and funny emotiocons when God`s Scripture is ignored or deemed as irrelevant.

And it will be said to them Today We will forget you, just as you forgot the meeting of this Day. And your abode is the Fire, and you will have no helpers. This is because you took God\\\'s revelations in mockery, and you were deceived by the worldly life. So from this Day, they will never exit therefrom, nor will they be excused. (4534-35)

The other day someone told me that in Arabia they chop peoples heads off every Friday for \\\"committing crimes\\\" and they call people to witness it, i started laughing at how ridiculous it sounded...but..... does that really happen?

I heard that the US likes to use depleted uranium shells when murdering people who were once safe in their own countries? Or that zionists like to crush people while they are still in their homes?

There is no relevance between what the idolworshippers do on Earth and what God has commanded...So why ask?

Disrespectful*

Christ, if you're going to accuse me of something at least use the proper word.

Elena

Peace

Disrespectful*
Christ, if you're going to accuse me of something at least use the proper word.

thanks for the correct word. I always confuse the English prefixes, more when the prefixes un- and -dis mean the same, opposite, reverse, not.

I really appreciate the correction.

me and enquirer were off-topic but the thread was DEAD so we won't disrupting anything. ignore

And those who rejected said Do not listen to this Quran and talk over it that you may succeed. We will let those who have rejected taste a severe retribution. And We will recompense them for the evil that they used to do. Such is the recompense for God\\\\\\\'s enemies; the Fire shall be their eternal abode, as a recompense for their discarding Our revelations. (4126-2

who's rejecting the quran?

Do you think there is a difference between people mocking the Scripture in a forum or if they do it face to face?

Will the God of Abraham treat such people differently because they mocked His words on-line rather than mocking His words face-to-face?

i was not mocking it, i found it amusing how you used that verse in the that context >D

It is speaking of fasaad (corruption/mischeif)...Nowhere does a word translated as heinous crimes appear in the text...Fasaad is given as the opposite of making right (see 26152)

Layth you can't crucify or chop mine and enquirers feet or do anything as harsh as that simply coz we were off topic.

My mistake...I should do as you do and make jest and funny emotiocons when God`s Scripture is ignored or deemed as irrelevant.

posting that particular verse was irrelevant.

And it will be said to them Today We will forget you, just as you forgot the meeting of this Day. And your abode is the Fire, and you will have no helpers. This is because you took God\\\'s revelations in mockery, and you were deceived by the worldly life. So from this Day, they will never exit therefrom, nor will they be excused. (4534-35)

i aint ignoring god's revelations but i certainly do not like them taken out of context.

I heard that the US likes to use depleted uranium shells when murdering people who were once safe in their own countries? Or that zionists like to crush people while they are still in their homes?

i take that as a yes then >D

There is no relevance between what the idolworshippers do on Earth and what God has commanded...So why ask?

well why not ask why?

Wakas

peace sugar,

A thread is not dead if it hasn't received replies in a while. You do realise that there is a search function in this forum, thus for example, I often read past threads but dont reply to them. I can guarantee you others do the same.

Making a significant* number of off-topic posts derails the original purpose of the thread, and its message can often get lost, thus its discouraged, and sometimes the offending posts can be deleted.

*please note, I did not mind one or two, but when it became most of the posts on the thread, then they had to be deleted.

unknownuser

A thread is not dead if it hasn't received replies in a while.

so when do you consider it dead?

You do realise that there is a search function in this forum, thus for example, I often read past threads but dont reply to them.

what "search function" is that? confused

I can guarantee you others do the same.

well i occasionally click on the last page of the 'list of threads' but i don't see that as some sort of 'search function'

Do you have those search functions like they do in some forums where you type a key word and a list of topics come up?

please note, I did not mind one or two, but when it became most of the posts on the thread, then they had to be deleted.

okay, i'm sorry me and enquirer talked that much -*

peace,
sugar

unknownuser

Peace wakas. I will just make a few comments. The dialogue between me and sugar on that thread contained comments that i had to reply to.....I felt genuinely worried for sugar,and tried to clarify her situation,i would have felt IRRESPONSIBLE if i didnt address some of the things i learnt from that dialogue...I probably should have talked to her by pm,but i didnt want to intrude on her privacy too much,either...
It seemed heavy handed to delete,you could have re-directed the posts,or thread,or sent a pm to me and sugar...
Also dont you think,as muslims/humanity, that we could address or help sugar with some advice on some of the 'issues' raised by her?...Dont we bear some responsibility to help others...? (obviously with her permission and approval.)
We all make mistakes,and now i will consign this 'episode' to 'experience'...
No hard feelings for anyone,but lessons to be learnt and pondered...
