Then you have to ask..What is a good Christian? .😕
People that wander through green hills singing "The hills are aliiiive with the sound of music" and then escaping from humorously inept Nazis? Oh, wait, they were good Austrians, different thing.
Still, I wonder what people consider a good Christian to be? I can imagine Finti's answer if he were here. Hehehe, if only it could come to pass.
And more importantly, does a good Christian make a good poster, or do they like Chuck Norris? Are the three mutually exclusive? (Just thought I better tie it in with the themes of the thread, as strange and wonderful as they have been.)
Originally posted by TwisterGameXSince only one person can create a thread, it seems that Fece is the only one capable of answering the question: What makes a good poster? As he was the one indirectly asking the question.
If there are so many people saying good posters are hard to find, why don't you guys make good threads and good posts...
Re: Re: Nowadays, good posters are hard to find.
A thousand ninjas would explode from the pure awesomeness that is me.
And now, to the retort(s).

Wow you actually spent an entire 3 paragraphs doing a parody on my other thread. lol..and to think, all of this extremist rhetoric is actually coming from a guy who takes pride in being a Christian.
This doesn't in anyway contradict you calling yourself a Christian, not at all.
After all, Christians generally use slang terms such as "Jesus Christ"..and name themselves after defication. In addition to that, Christian's also support causes that enable those with "humanistic" philosophies to have control over our school systems.
2. Yes, our denomination (though I prefer the term sobriquet, as it is much more elegant) is named after the aforementioned deity of Jesus Christ. Your point being?
3. Really. What would these causes be?
The largest problem with "Christians" like yourself Fece, is the fact that you aren't really "Christians." Sure..you play the good role every now and again, when it suites your own self serving agenda, but when the sh*t really hits the fan, and you have to truly fight for what you claim to believe in, I can guarantee my friend, that you..and other "Christians' like you, will be missing in action.Keep the faith my brother..and know that I will keep you in my prayers.
In response to the question of what makes a good poster:
A good poster is difficult to define. What isn't a good poster is much easier to define. A good poster does not...
1. Readily flame others or post aggressively.
2. Display arrogance.
3. Want to 'win' an argument.
4. Claim to have won an argument or gloat of how he or she 'demolished' the arguments of others. (Remarkably similar to number two.)
5. Ruin threads (either by going off-topic or otherwise).
6. Make pointless threads.
7. Direct personal insults at others.
8. Purposely skew the words of others or purposely quote others out-of-context.
9. Above all, troll.
(I'd better add a number 10: INTRODUCE INFLAMMATORY POLITICS--INFLAMMATORY OR OTHERWISE--INTO AN APOLITICAL THREAD.)
With this in mind, one can say that a good poster does...
1. Control his or her emotions while posting.
2. Display humility and the understanding of the posts of others, be they in defense of or against a particular position.
3. Desire to discuss points-of-view.
4. Contribute positively to threads.
5. Create threads that are appropriate for the purpose of the forum.
6. Show respect to the opinions of others.
7. Resist the urge to make jabs at other posters or real-world figures in threads not devoted to them (the real-world figures, mind you).
Of course, one must continually demonstrate these characteristics in order to be classified as a 'good' or 'bad' poster.

The Irreligious Left are the antithesis of the oft-scorned Religious Right. Their weapons are subterfuge and deception, and they are hypocrites of the worst kind.They claim to value human life--but not the life of an unborn child. They preach tolerance--but show none to Christians and their beliefs. They profess equality--yet support everything that undermines it. They seek to erode the very foundations upon which our country is supported.

Many posters today are extremely stupid, with unreasonably low expectations regarding what "qualifies" as a legitimate post. Don't get me wrong, it's good to have freedom of speech, but if you're a ****ing moron, sound like a retard, and have the debating skills of a Special Olympics forensics team, then you should shut the hell up and leave KMC.
I was incorrect. It looks like you are an extremely "tolerant" individual Feceman. Extremists generally don't make broad assumptions about individuals they know nothing about. Particularly when it comes to others opinions on a "message board" and likening those opinions to those who have physical/mental handicaps. That's something that Extremists don't do. Extremists usually don't post some non-sensical religious jibe..characterizing those whose opinions don't mirror theirs as "left" or "irreligious in their signatures either.
So I apologize to you brother Fece..you are not extreme in the slightest, I just need to learn from your example..and be more "tolerant" of idividual views that don't coincide with my own.

You are correct; it does not at all contradict me calling myself a Christian. Thank you for recognizing this, though mentioning it was unnecessary.1. Yes, Christians generally use slang terms such as "Jesus Christ". Would you like to wow KMC with the facts and figures used to support this statement (pulled freshly from your ass)?
2. Yes, our denomination (though I prefer the term sobriquet, as it is much more elegant) is named after the aforementioned deity of Jesus Christ. Your point being?
3. Really. What would these causes be?
Being that you've demonstrated such astounding/mindboggling intellect with your above referenced questions/statements...I will again have to admit the error of my ways. Your name, signature, using "Christ's" name in "vain" multiple times since being a member of KMC, supporting Humanism being taught in public schools, does not contradict the teachings of Christ in any way.
I'd even go as far as saying that if "Christ" himself were to come down to earth today, I'm sure you'd be the first one he would come to. I can guarantee that you'd be awarded a medal of honor for your outstanding service to his cause.

Is this a good example of these "heathenistic" behaviors brother Fece?

You are right. I am wrong. Clearly all of the categories you've created defining "good" and "bad" are the gospel truth of this forum. And clearly..you represent the ideal of what a good Christian..and a good poster should be. I apologize for being a bad poster/Christian. As a New Year's Resolution, I truly will try to reach the "gold standard" of posting and being a Christian that you've demonstrated and categorized for us.
Keep the faith brother..and Happy New Year!!
😇

Just wanted to add one more thing brother Fece. "Nowadays", conjunctions are not supposed to used at the beginning of sentences. It is considered improper grammar to do so, however, people do it all the time. In fact, I did it in my last post. But being the enlightened Christian/poster that you are..I'm sure you already knew this.
Keep the faith my brother. Your posting skills will always be revered by myself and many others throughout the land KMC!!!
