ASA,

I was wondering since the moderators spend much time on IC, I had a suggestion that maybe the moderators could (if its possible) edit comments that are totally off topic. It makes perfect sense. If the subject is called "Why some dogs have blue spots?" and we are discussingg why Muslimahs wear Hijab it totally takes away from the conversation. I was hoping that to keep people align in discussion perhaps editing their comments and suggesting that they refrain from discussing another subject within the current topic or create a topic they wish to discuss.

Dont give them ideas Israfil... I cant believe even you would endorse this. This opens up a can of hornets and yellow jackets. The moderators already edit comments seemingly at random... Threads have a natural course and evolution and should be allowed to flow freely as such. *************************************************

Just proved you right, isn't it?
There you go.. and Jame's Burke would be proud.

***EDITED***Amah... this is the 2nd time You edited my comments. The powers that be made you a moderator, did so in the spirit that you can do good.. not abuse it...

***Name calling is a clear violation of the Guidelines***

Ok Fine.. I can play this game..

AMAH, You're Acting Unrightiously...  That is not a name but a discription describing an act.

****Superflaous Moderating is a Clear Waste of time and a Violation of the Guidelines set forth in the "Stop being so sensative" Accords of 1976 AD. Section 32, Paragraph 12 . And the "Congrats, You're a Nazi" declaration of 1921, Article 14.*****


I can make stuff up too..

ArabianKnight, I have deleted my post as perhaps I was unduly harsh.

I did not mean to be, I am just trying to understand you. I don't think anyone here has made you a target or specifically chooses you to be mean to. Therefore, I don't understand your reactions and responses.

I am asking, not just as a moderator but as a User, please be more considerate when posting.

I have nothing against you Mishmish... You're alright... If it means anything to you. Same goes for the other Moderators... except that new Rookie you got there.

I'm not a target.. and if I am... haha oh well.. I dont really care.  My Tenure here can be temporarly sealed with a few well placed key-strokes and mouse clicks.

What annoyed me the most in this instance was that the new Moderator Amah edited my post for her amusement. I said nothing out of line with "the guidlines".. and Calling her a Jerk for what she did was far more polite than what I originally intended. Which subsequently was also later Edited.. by You.. I guess. If Amah doesnt like me.. It doesnt matter, she can go fly a kite - but she shouldnt reflect that in her moderation.

I dont like the style of the moderation on this Board... it was not Like this when I first joined. Call it nostalgia or whatever.. but Currently Its more Arab, than Islamic... and there is a good distinction between the two.

There are things to learn here... and there is a level of socializing. Some people come here more for Socializing than for learning.. We're all humans, and somtimes some people are passionate. So what if harsh words start flying - it happens in real life, why not here?... Why Shut the thread down? Isnt this a virtual reality? Let people show their true colors with their words... artificial politeness is a dangerious facade. People will naturally become the paraiah among the community. Some are passionate about hating america.. oh well, I guess they wont be watching American Idol next season... But just because you silence them, doesnt mean they dont exist. No one is forcing the forum-goers to click on that thread and spend the 15 minutes reading the replys. If people say to you that words about Hating America or Hating Muslims is such an eye sore - tell them to go live in a bubble.. because thats how real life is. Its better to deal with the issues rather than running away from them. (Some famous wierd old guy must have said that some time in history.)

As for me being more considerate.. a pity you dont share my sense of humor, but sure thing pally.. i'll tone it down so long as people dont say somthing silly[see i'm being polite already] like "Pray he stays alive for a trial..." I think such words deserve alittle retribution.


There, i Hope that HElps You Understand ME!.. if not.. then lets go Fishing, alot of quite time for talking there.

Ps.

People who quote verses as a reply... Thats annoying too.

Assalamu Alaikum!

ArabianKnight,

You are attacking moderators all the time. According to you, they are acting like nazis etc etc, that you mentioned in another thread ( How do you disbelieve in Allah!!! ).

http://www.islamicity.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4800& ;PN=3&TPN=2

You have to understand that it is serious offense to do any form of personal attack or attack on a group. Asking questions respectfully is one thing, and plainly attacking others without any reason is just another. And you have been warned many times before by Sister Khadija, yet you don�t stop this.

In the near past, you had problem with Sister Mishmish. And now you have problem with the new moderator, Sister amah.

This is not healthy attitude. Please comply with guidelines.

Peace

Then which of the favours of your Lord will ye deny?

Hey.. there peace maker man...

As far as I can remeber, The Nazi's did delete posts on forums. I dont like to approach Godwin's law.. but I only used the N word on 2 seperate occasions. That is not all the time. I'm Breathing.. now thats all the Time.

But since i'm at work burning the midnight oil.. i had time to make you a graph for your enjoyment. There is a Direct Corralation between what the moderators do.. and ME!



Notice the sharp Linear straight curve of the graph - I'm not inconsistent.. Mishmish and Khadija stoped editing my stuff and closing down interesting threads so they became cool. You could do the same.. why do you have to be different Peace Maker?... Cant WE MAKE PEACE?

PS.
The negative value's reflect happy thoughts.

ArabianKnight,

Yes, we can make peace. And that is why my user name is "peacemaker". But, rules are for eveyone. And you will have to comply just as everyone including me has to comply. I hope you get my point, my friend. No offense intended.

Let us stop here as you are at work.

Peace
