void main doesn't learn when things are deleted to leave it be, so he re-posts things, which is the quickest way to clicky.

He's not clicked yet, though.

You have got to be joking. What did I post that deserved to be deleted? Go ahead and click me.

Again, while sitting across the table from GuyB (this time at Buca di Bepo for lunch), you posted something about photographers being atheists and the athletes they shoot being believers, neither of which is remotely true. It's simply trolling, and we're cracking down on that, too.

But you posted it again instead of getting the hint. If something gets deleted, there's a reason for it, so accept it and move on.

I don't understand the need for some of you to earn some idiot street cred by getting clicked. Just follow the rules of the forum, and listen to the moderators, and all is fine. The short fact is that we don't have the time to police you guys if you're going to be idiots about it and repeatedly do things that we've shown were unacceptable, so it's easier to click you until further notice.

If you don't like it, go somewhere else. We'll gladly refund your membership fees.

What rule did I break exactly? I'm not looking for "street cred".

GuyB usually lets you know your misbehaving with a little humor.

You might wanna give that a try, instead of coming off like some hard ass.

Sorry it comes across that way in print, but GuyB also typically calls names (cleverly) and I don't. Give and take.

Humans as long as we can tell have allways created gods/religeons. They've provided a kind of mental security for us and a code of rules by wich we live our lives. I think if you have a rational mind its hard to justify religeon. Its not possible to believe in two religeons, so in order to be, lets say muslim, you have to be athiest in relation to christian, hindu and the thousands of other religeons that mankind has created.

Religeon is very often force fed to us when were at an age where we dont question what were told. There are obviouse darwinian reasons why at a young age we dont question what our elders say - Dont go over there you'll fall down a cliff - Dont touch that you'll burn your hand etc etc. And so having been force fed a belief system before our rational mind has really begun to take shape (around teenage years) its not surprising that so many people still believe in variouse different gods at an adult age.

Ask yourself this though - If a young kid wants to get up on a podium and thank his particular imaginary friend, then what possible harm can it do?

I disagree with you a bit. I think religion was more of a way to explain what we couldn't understand. Humans don't like not knowing things, and saying that "god" created the earth instead of saying "who knows?" was easier to swallow. As science has evolved and consistently proven religion wrong, I don't understand how people can continue to believe in it.
Ha ha ha! Grinning

Hey Nerd. That's your screen name. I didnt know that you can delete posts, why didnt you identify yourself instead of hiding in the background. You have Authority, then you must let others know so that they dont overstep their boundaries. Dont be secret, this only spells disaster. We are here for fun and to express our ideas. Now we have an Atheist Moderator!

I was looking over the rules and the only section that I can find that even remotely relates to this thread is this section:

We do expect you to maintain at least a reasonable level of civility. Treat others the way you want to be treated. Don’t post things that you wouldn’t say when face-to-face with another person. So name calling, insults, and personal attacks are lame. So is keyboard bravery. We’d like the activity to be more like Bourbon Street at 2:00AM, not downtown Baghdad at 2:00AM. This stuff should be fun for everyone, not painful.

Show respect. Not only to each other, but when posting about riders, team personnel, officials, etc. If you can’t, don’t be shocked if you have posted deleted, or moved to other forums (like The Dumbgeon).

I don't think I violated anything there but it seems to me many posts in this thread would be insulting to Christians and would be a against the spirit of the above. It would appear that it is open season when it comes to Christians. Again, I am not personally offended but I can certainly see how many people would be. I am just sticking up for those people.
