You're right, it is his forum, but never forget it is the many members of JSP that makes this forum what it is. ;)


True, but there are over half a million registered members on this forum. Of those, maybe 100 people post somewhat sporadically in PaRD, and of that 100 or so, maybe 50% care. I doubt njaguar would really lose too much sleep over 50 members getting mad and leaving.

Because thats what is going to happen. You can either:

A) Get mad, have your voice be ignored by the moderating staff and eventually leave the forum

B.) Get mad, have your voice be ignored by the moderating staff and eventually just let the issue die

C) Just let it go

I honestly don't think the moderators really care about a couple dozen people in PaRD complaining. This subforum is full of spam and trolls.

Edit: Fucker made my B ) a smiley face.

Edit2: Thinking about number of users on here, how much money do you think Njag has made off of this site?

Served by the emoticon feature.

I'm off for now.

Also, a formal apology to Marcuz for the remarks I made earlier.

But I am in a position where my voice may matter, so I choose to speak up rather than let it go. I have quite a few friends who are moderators and I can hope at least a couple of those people might respect my opinion enough to listen to what I have to say. If I get punished for speaking my mind then so be it, I would rather speak my mind than to see a good friend of mine wronged.

Atheists don't have religious beliefs. I know this because I have seen a lot of atheists in my time.

The point is that- whether or not it is going to change- this IS a case of discrimination however you look at it. You see it everywhere in real life, not just gaming websites like this one. People who are in power tend to abuse that power to satisfy their every whim, whether it is because they disagree with someone else's beliefs or decide not to follow their own rules- it is still an abuse of power. They say with great power comes great responsibility, and just because this is a small matter only confined to a gaming website doesn't mean that we should turn a blind eye to it because it is convenient to do so. Take our country for example, our leaders only have power because we exist, because we grant them that power. If the so-called 'common' people did not exist in our country then the politicians would have no-one to take their power from. There would BE no point to the position of president, because it is our vast social network that supports this position.

This website is no different. There are people that have a greater position of authority, but within that authority is implied that there must be members who support those in power... here it happens to be fg donations, posts, number of members, ect. Just myself alone- I have had at least 18k fg go in and out of my account, which roughly equals out to $585 in donations to the site owner. And compared to many other users on this site, I am just a flea on the back of a mammoth, so to speak. But in being a part of the site, I do help support it and I WILL stand up for my values of right and wrong in this matter. It is wrong in my opinion to create a subforum only for Christians because it gives Christians preferential treatment over the many other religions that members on this website practice. It is wrong to punish someone for disagreeing with someone else's beliefs, as long as it is not hurting said person. It is wrong to discriminate on the basis of a person's beliefs.



:lol: Couldn't help but lol...
Hello Tom!  :hug:



Did anyone else think of Spider Man when you read this?

Just sayin'

Does anyone fellowship? I wasn't aware that it was a verb. ;)

And yes, you may call a group of friends among atheists a fellowship, it is not particular to a single belief or practice. Should I request a subforum for the Atheist Fellowship now?
