Your very own usergroup

Post #1

Post by otseng »

Now, you can have your very own usergroup. Post in this thread the name that you'd like. I'll make sure the name conforms to the standards of this site and deduct 2500 tokens from you. Then, you'll be the owner and member of that usergroup. By default, people will be able to freely join your group. Or you can choose to confirm membership requests.

To request your personal usergroup, provide the following:
- Name of usergroup (40 character limit)
- Description (255 character limit)
- Note if you want to confirm membership from others (default will be no)

For an additional charge of 10,000 tokens, you can also have your own subforum for your usergroup. Please provide the following info:
- Name of usergroup (40 character limit)
- Description (80 character limit)

Subforum activity requirement:
- Subforums must maintain some activity in it. Subforums that do not have any activity for six months can get removed (posts made to simply bump threads do not count). There will be no refunds given for any subforums removed.

Additional restrictions:
- Do not add people to your group without their permission. Otherwise I will delete your group.
- Descriptions cannot point to personal websites. If a link is found to point to inappropriate and/or offensive material, the group will be deleted.

1/3/2011 Modification:
- Changed group price from 500 to 1000 tokens
- Changed subforum price from 2000 to 5000 tokens

1/12/2013 Modification:
- Added subforum activity requirement

12/31/2016 Modification:
- Changed group price from 1000 to 2500 tokens

One reason is there are no duplicate subforums that cover the same topics. You're requesting a new subforum where one already exists.

If a custom discussion group has debate in it, it's against the rules. Anyone is free to report that to curb any debates in the discussion subforums.
I want the subforum tailored to Christians. You have a subforum on homosexuality tailored for the LGBT and ithas scientific discussions...delete

I want the subforum tailored to Christians that deals with effective rebuttals. You have a subforum on homosexuality tailored for the LGBT and ithas scientific discussions...
For example .. Hers is one... What does science really say about homosexuality

New User Group

I would like to create a user group called "Supports The Golden Rule."

The "Supports The Golden Rule" user group is for those who feel that almost all of the world's interpersonal problems would be solved if we all just treated each other in the way we would like to be treated ourselves.

No interpretation no matter how subtle can (for me) change this." -- Albert Einstein -- Written in 1954 to Jewish philosopher Erik Gutkind.

But maybe the way you treat yourself might not be the way others wish to be treated? :D

Request for new usergroup..."unitarian Christian" Small "u" to distinguish from the Unitarian Universalist church, but monotheistic UU's would be welcome to join too.

For those who understand God to be singular in unity, and not a "compound unity", unitarian as opposed to trinitarian.

Open group.
My theological positions:

-God created us in His image, not the other way around.
-The Bible is redeemed by it's good parts.
-Pure monotheism, simple repentance.
-YHVH is LORD
-The real Jesus is not God, the real YHVH is not a monster.
-Eternal life is a gift from the Living God.
-Keep the Commandments, keep your salvation.
-I have accepted YHVH as my Heavenly Father, LORD and Savior.

I am inspired by Jesus to worship none but YHVH, and to serve only Him.

I'd like to start a public sub-forum that focuses exclusively on the Christian Bible, the contradictions therein, how we know we have the right books, the applicability of the OT to Christians, questions of dates and authorship, possible interpolations, which parts are clearly symbolic and which are to be taken literally. Right now this is carried out over several forums in a scattershot manner.

Title: Sacred Scripture
Description: The Bible: When, how, and who wrote it, what it means & why

I have my requisite 6000 tokens available for deduction.

Thank you!
Thank you for playing Debating Christianity & Religion!
