Christian ForumsReviews of christianforums.com

I was banned from ChristianForums.com for "goading" for saying "all lives matter". I didn't even receive one warning.

Hi, I have study the word of God for many years. Today I can answered all questions Biblical. I like to share my experiences to the world.

As the previous reviews show - run by athiests and is a joke. I signed up at realchristianforums.com and found other true Christians to fellowship with.

I'm on BOTH Christian Forums and WORTHY....but I see "the handwriting on the wall" and it won't be long until I'm banned...I've had 3 warnings on CF and WORTHY put me in SOLITARY CONFINEMENT for nearly a week. So my question is, WHERE is a good Christian Forum? I would really appreciate finding a OPEN & HONEST Christian Forum that doesn't show preference to ATHEISTS.

Lord be praised oh great one. For we love you Allah!

I joined the site around 7 years ago, but now have been banned. Seems that the mods don't even abide by the many rules that they themselves create, which makes it impossible for regular members to abide by them. Simply challenge a claim made by a member about Covid, and you get a warning for denying the pandemic, which is against the rules. Explain yourself to the moderator that you weren't denying the pandemic, and they change the accusation to something that you weren't even accused of. And yes, just like KarateCowboy said in the previous review (and who I often spoke to on the site before he too was banned), it was the moderator named FreeinChrist who was the unreasonable one. To be fair, there were other Christians on the site that would offer uplifting and helpful advice when asked. One disappointment though is that every single thread--even ones simply talking about theology--turned into a debate that went off track. It made me wonder if even Christians could ever talk about anything without it turning into a fight. Naturally, the political threads turned into a fight each and every time. But the theology threads should certainly remain civil. There always seemed to be certain members that had to appear on every thread to turn every topic into a heated debate. Even more disappointing is that the mods allowed some of the biggest offenders to remain active even after being reported a dozen times or more for clear violations of site rules while I was banned for practically nothing. It seems to me that the troublemakers were welcome to remain active as long as they were causing problems for Christian members, even though mocking, goading, flaming and other disrespectful behavior was supposedly against the rules. I used to find the site rather addictive and it was a bummer to get banned. However, reading the reviews of others here gives me more of a feeling of liberation. So, thank you to all the reviewers here for that.

Like others here I ran afoul of moderator FreeInChrist. She reads malevolent tone into your writings when there is none. Looking back, moderators doing that may be the cause of the bulk of problems on that site. I wrote to her, telling her I was happy that I finally understood better where she was coming from. Something she had said made things 'click' and I got it. I told her I may not completely agree but at least now I can better understand and prevent missteps. She responded with one-liner "And sarcasm like that is exactly why you have problems on this site". I wrote back saying I wasn't being sarcastic and I politely asked her to reread my message without the sarcasm. She said no and then perma-banned me from the site, ending my 17 year tenure there. "Enough with the snark. This is a supported by the administration". Couldn't bother to even spell correctly. I would like to give the site a more kind rating. There are some very good people there including moderators. Years ago, before it was sold, I made friends all around the world that I've met IRL and still contact today. There are sub-sections of the site that are very beneficial for people looking for faith community and discussion and even emotional and psychological support. However, for me, one bad apple really does spoil the barrel.

CF is a lot like someone gave the responsibility of moderating a website to a group of 12 year olds, and they thought more moderation was equal to better moderation. They not only way over moderate, but its as if they have the mentality of a 12 year old in the area of dealing with people. You can bet these mods aren't nearly as good in real life as they expect you to be as posters, and it would pay for them to remember the beam in their own eyes. I have no doubt they would have ban Christ himself for life very quickly. I know because I have been warned more than once for merely repeating what Christ said, or teaches. It's really quite bizzare. One of the mods named hammster has a very bad/short temper, falls apart very easily, and from what Ive seen, should never be allowed to moderate others as he has to tough a time moderating even himself. He pushes predestination, and if you dare get the best of him, watch out, he will use his position as a moderator for payback, and as means to get rid if anyone who opposes him. Very dirty, and vindictive moderator, but not surprising since his particular gospel allows him to act as he does without concern. An example, he started a thread to push his predestination, he clearly couldn't defend it and it showed....badly. He later removed the fairly lengthy thread to hide that fact, or to hide the truth. Clearly, the site condons the teaching of false gospels, something that should never be allowed on a true Christian website. My suggestion is to debate the false teachings, as they are easily refuted, but be careful, false prophets will seek vengeance for showing them up, and report you the first chance they get, and the mods will turn a blind eye to vindictive reporters, and pretend it doesnt even exist. Why? Becsuse they refuse to see the problems there as it will take some doing to fix, asnd they would rather be lazy and pretend everything is just fine...denial. Very unchristian like people to be running a Christian website.
