The Endtime Discussion Group Exchange (EDGE_ONLINE) Echo Rules

Last Updated: April 16, 2009


The Endtime Discussion Group Exchange, (EDGE), echo is not a
debate echo to argue the validity of the Christian faith, or the
beliefs of the Christian faith. It is a Christian-oriented echo
where Christians, and other people who have a sincere interest in
learning about Christianity, can meet for instruction, chat and
fellowship. If your primary intention is only to mock and malign
our Christian faith, then please do not participate in this echo.
The HOLYSMOKE and DEBATE echoes may better suit your needs.

Echo rules will be strictly enforced on all echo participants.
Failure to comply with any of these rules after several warnings
will result in the offending participant being banned from this
echo, either temporarily, or permanently, depending on the
seriousness of the infraction.

All echo participants are expected to be aware of the echo rules
before posting in it. By posting messages in this forum, you are
signifying that you agree to be subject to, and to abide by, the
rules of this echo.

Contact the Moderator at webmaster{at}endtimeprophecy.net, or at Jeff
Snyder, 1:345/3777.0, if you are not certain what these rules are.

At the discretion of the Moderator, the following rules may be
updated or revised at any time without any notice or obligation to
echo participants:

Do not publicly argue with the Moderator. He has the final word in
all administrative matters and decisions. If any echo participant
has an issue with the Moderator, use netmail only to work out the
grievance.

The official language of the Endtime Discussion Group Exchange,
(EDGE), echo is English. Do not post messages in other languages.
Using Hebrew, Greek and Armaic words to explain the meanings of
Biblical texts is permissible.

Do not speak evil of or belittle our Christian faith. If you don't
believe in the God we worship; if you do not accept the Bible as
His inspired Word; and if you only come here to argue and debate
with us, and to mock our beliefs, then please go elsewhere.

Do not promote non-Christians beliefs in this echo, whether they
are derived from Islam, Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Shintoism,
Wicca, Native American, New Age (such as Gaia, Nibiru, Mayan
Calendar), or any other non-Christian belief systems.

This is strictly a non-denominational Christian echo for individual
discussion. Do not use it to promote the specific doctrines of your
church or organization, whether it is Catholic, Protestant, Mormon,
Jehovah's Witnesses, SDA or any other denomination or group.

Do not harass, speak evil of, argue with, make sexual advances at,
provoke, troll, bait, intentionally antagonize or belittle anyone
in this echo. Your general behavior here should be "And be ye kind
one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God
for Christ's sake hath forgiven you." Ephesians 4:32, KJV

The purpose of this echo is to engage in ongoing Christian-oriented
conversation with other echo visitors; it is not to silently post
endless streams of articles of interest, without interacting with
other visitors to the echo.

Do not use this echo as an extension of your own ministry by
posting long Bible lessons, or other doctrinal material, or by
seeking to draw our visitors away to your ministry. The Moderator
reserves the right to post his articles in the forum, for the
purpose of stimulating discussion amongst echo participants.

Please strive to share Scriptures which support your views, so
that other echo participants can see why you think and believe as
you do. If you do share any verses from the Bible, we prefer that
they be taken from the Authorized King James Version of the Bible,
and not from any of the other modern translations.

Do not contribute any posts which contain any kind of dirty,
vulgar or disrespectful language. This includes commonly-used
Internet lingo such as "lmao", "wtf", "stfu",
etc., as well as
using asterisks, or other symbols, in your words, in order to make
your foul language seem less offensive.

Do not make any posts which describe in detail any extreme forms
of violence such as murder, torture, physical mutilation, etc.

Do not make any posts which contain or explicitly describe any
form of sexual activity, be it heterosexual or homosexual.

Do not talk about, ask about, or advertise, pornography.

Do not talk about, ask about, or advertise, software serial
numbers.

Do not talk about, ask about, or advertise, warez, that is,
illegal, pirated software, such as commercial computer programs,
movies, mp3's, etc.

Do not use ASCII art of any kind in this echo.

These rules may be amplified by the Moderator at any time.
Thank-you for your respectful cooperation.
