Forum rules discussion thread

Now what makes a Christian person defend someones conversion to another religion?
I have, on multiple occasions, had fleeting thoughts about converting to Islam. I imagined that if I did convert, I would gain easier access to women and likely enjoy a higher quality of life. From my perspective, Islam seems to promote a "do what you want, say what you want, take what you want" mentality. I often see Muslims living large—with multiple big houses and cars—receiving respect from others without necessarily having to return it.

Despite all of that, I remain loyal to our Lord Jesus Christ and have never seriously considered leaving Christianity. However, I can understand how Andrew Tate arrived at the conclusion that Islam is better for him.​

Have you considered that maybe you concern yourself with vanity far too much? You seem to obsess over it, the majority of your posts are about it, towards yourself, towards others....even towards your faith.

Using this definition, how could I ever be overly concerned with vanity? When have I ever taken pride in myself or admired myself excessively? In fact, I have always stated that I'm starting from the bottom and working my way up. Not once have I promoted or indulged in self-aggrandizement.​
 
I don't really get involved in forum drama or politics so I don't really have a strong feeling one way or another on this topic. I wish people would spend more time focusing on Christ and less on arguments about wordly things. Aside from that, I just hope they treat each other with respect, humility, and kindness. I don't think imaginary Internet points are very important. Unless it is preventing you from being able to use the site, which I don't think it is, then I suggest you relax and try to move on your with life. That is just my 2 cents, since you asked. :)
Agreed. Magoo has already stated in this thread that nobody should care about points—they should simply write whatever they believe is worthwhile, regardless of the reaction.

Although for me personally, receiving a negative reaction from Samseau feels far more painful than getting one from other members.​
Before posting something just typed up in response to something read on the forum, I try to stop and take a second to think.

1. Will this provide value to other men on the forum (glowies, bots and women aside) who took time out of their day to read my comment?

2. Is what I'm about to post reactionary, inflammatory or unclear in ways that could mean something different to a person reading the comment from another context?

3. Could there be a reasonable angle for why certain event, etc...happened that I am oblivious too?

4. Any egregious grammatical or spelling errors?

Ymmv but I've found it helpful to have a little filter to run things through before just letting loose with something...
Those are good points. Personally, I follow a single rule when posting: I imagine Samseau is watching my posts and consider what he might think—would he approve, or would he disapprove? He has little tolerance for low-quality posts and consistently upholds a high standard for discussions in the forum.

On multiple occasions, I have been caught by him posting low-quality content. At first, he tolerated it, but when I continued, he issued a warning. Repeated low-quality posts eventually tested his patience, and that is something I find genuinely intimidating.​

P.S. Less flippantly though:

This has got to be one of the funniest thread conversations I've seen in awhile.

However stuff like thumbs-down, the 'irrational' retarded pepefrog and the proposed bluepill reaction really encourage much more adversarial discourse.

A part of me really enjoys adversarial discourse, I also enjoy reading heated exchanges as well. I understand extreme passions aren't good for the soul but if men do not push each other it stifles improvement all the same.

Jesus also always expressed his dislike over certain things, he rebuked his disciples or called them faithless.

You got downvoted before because you're suggesting it's worthwhile to sell one's soul for a bit of money and women. It's a terrible trade my friend do not deceive yourself.

I do not think you are vain but you do crave worldly pleasures, believe me if you got them you'd understand they aren't more valuable than God.

For what it is worth, I know how you feel. I still remember the first time Roosh gave me warning points over something silly. I was shocked and felt mortified. You'll get over it. I'm sure Samseau didn't mean any harm and only wants the best for you and the forum, and I am glad to hear you reflected on it and adjusted your posting and tried to do better. :)

I don't generally bother indicating what I like or don't like. Some parts of the same comment can be more likable than others.

Maybe a commenter can ask Chat GPT what his views are based on what he said or liked/disliked. In the days of AI web crawlers, a very detailed personal file can be assembled.
