The Bible foretold that you would send an abusive, threatening PM?
to the moderators, once again, it is a matter of perspective, had FMF acquiesced to the
Gmans repeated and civil requests to simply 'leave him alone', itself an indication of
FMF's bullying tactics he would have felt no necessity to send him any correspondence,
would he.

No, they haven't.

*************LEAVE ME ALONE*****************
You simply ignore them, what Galveston dud was nothing other than grand attention seeking. Something he is rather partial to.
Please, cease with this 'bullying' and 'harassing' hyperbole. It does a great disservice to those are actually being bullied and harassed.

affecting his enjoyment of the site, hounding him from thread to thread would have that
effect. These legal and technical aspects of it being a public forum, of having the right
to ignore, etc etc fail to recognize what actually transpired, the continued harassment
of a user against his will after repeated requests to refrain, that is what actually
happened PK, i did not make it up.
attention seeking, plueeeeeze, he was trying to get less attention thats why you ask
someone to leave you alone, wow, day is night and night is day.

Wikipedia:Harassment.
"Harassment (/həˈræsmənt/ or /ˈhærəsmənt/) covers a wide range of behaviours of an offensive nature. It is commonly understood as behaviour intended to disturb or upset, and it is characteristically repetitive."

Originally posted by deennyThere was nothing "offensive" about my posts disputing galveston75's claims about Proverbs 30:6 and Revelation 13:11-15.
Taking part in a debate in a debating forum is not covered in your definition of harassment. The only harassment that has happened here is the use of the PM to send abusive message.

If you are going to post is an open public forum you are inviting open public contributions. I suggest that if you and Galveston don't like being questioned about your beliefs here, then you should post in a private club where you can control the membership and therefore protect your delicate sensibilities and egos.
And even more so do you really believe that just because it is open to the public or members of RHP, that all commen sense, being decent and being respective of others request can be ignored and even mocked? Really?
Apparently not as this type of attitude is the norm now and cowardly hiding behind a computer to say things they probably never would say face to face.
This is such a typical mindset with many today and that would include this situation here that ones "have to be right" no matter what and seem to not show any decency to anyones request.
"But know this, that in the last days critical times hard to deal with will be here. For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, self-assuming, haughty, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, disloyal, having no natural affection, (not open to any agreement, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, without love of goodness), 4 betrayers, headstrong, puffed up with pride."
So since it is obvious there is a major lack of understanding with you guys with Robbie and myself on being civil and courteous and decent when conversing with others and respecting their views and requests, I say we are at an impasse and need to back off and let things settle down. It has gotten out of hand and is a dead end with us as it is with you all.
My "request" is to move on and drop this stupid bickering.
Did you and the others catch the word "request"? If you understand this and I'm wrong about my description of you guys, PROVE IT NOW and move on and drop this issue and do this with maturity.

Originally posted by galveston75I would be just as happy talking to about the contradictions in what you claim in some of your posts face to face as I am doing it here in this forum. I don't know what you mean by "cowardly"?

see the description for this forum, debate and general discussion, it therefore most
certainly is covered, despite your assertions to the contrary. Sending a single PM
requesting that a user desist from correspondence does not constitute harassment, it
fails by the definition provided, that being characterized by repetition, you fail fatboy,
suck it up.
