Deleted?

Good god, Alas.

Just let it ride. Why does everything have to be so damn tidy all the time? This ain't the damn LDS Church.

Re: Mormon and Gay

very thoughtful, achilles. the suicide layers are not as simple as do i live or do i die. suicide seems to be the most visible and obvious termination of one's will. but often, without a suicide plan, choices are made under the misguided belief, or even hope, that "I am better off dead." the out is ...

Re: Mormon and Gay

I agree with other posters that this is a public patch for BYU and other entities within the two corporations. It is undoubtedly worse for gay youth, it deepens the 'obedience to church first' message. But it allows a lot of breathing or wiggle room for corporations, public figures and lobbying. Nic...

Re: Moderators, hosting, and other admin

Alas, This is exactly why I prefer you do not moderate again. Process matters. It matters a lot. A ton. It matters more than whether Smith had 33 or 133 wives. Every time you come in these conversations and express your inability to allow a process to continue or proceed, I cringe. The conversation ...

Re: Updated mormon and gay website- pitiful!

It's like when you take this face :evil: and with a pen and eraser change it into this face :twisted: Putting a smile on it was very clever PR move. If it helps ease the pain and suffering of gay youth and their families in LDS society, then it was a good idea. I disagree. It's the same old sham. T...

That's perfect.
ME, what kind of ransom does Cwald have to pay to get his face back?
He has to do a road trip to Cool, CA.

Re: Moderators, hosting, and other admin

Would this including selling of temple signs and tokens? Cash only, and you don't know me. If you tell anyone where you bought these from you can expect a late night visit that won't be pleasant. They will probably bring cookies, maybe even lasagna. Why do you keep doing that throat slashing thing?...

Re: Moderators, hosting, and other admin

I'd like to get moderators in place by early next week, insert forum rules, and maybe add some requested functions such as tap a talk, a cancel button, a resource page (think Reddit sidebar), and maybe some other ideas. And a donate button. I addressed this privately with another member but I will ...

Re: Explain your avatar choice

I didn't choose this avatar. It chose me. The avatar didn't specifically choose me. But when I was trekking through what was once the Land Bountiful and stepping over the corpses, well not literal corpses, but ya know, a metaphorical corpse bridge, a light descended upon me, not a light light, but a...

Re: Moderators, hosting, and other admin

IMO, 8 is way too many mods. That requires correlation to correlate, which is simply not efficient. My experience in moderating suggests that three is a very good number. My name is Froggie. I am Female. Big green hugs, Froggie Yep. 3 is best. 5 may work. I would go with 3 mods and 2 folks that are...

Re: Moderators, hosting, and other admin

Good luck y'all.

I shared a few of my ideas over in the loud angry ditch we were in for a while. Shared some publicly and some privately.

I think this is going to be a good and fun and creative adventure.

Hey cwald, looks like we got callings in the High Priest Group to unorganize not moving people after our home teaching isn't done.

That's perfect.
