Giving everyone here a heads-up that we have a user who has decided to take issue with an objection raised to their signature in the forums.
In the forums, we very explicitly prohibit religious discussions and topics, because those topics are divisive and have no place in the forum community.
Felix Miata - a long-time user - has been asked by the forum staff to remove his signature, which includes a bible verse quote. He has declared that we are not permitted to ask him to remove his signature, and that if we pursue the issue, he will escalate it to opensuse-web and admin.
Our rules are there for a purpose, and that is because religion and religious topics are extremely divisive. That's why we exclude religious (and political) discourse from the forums.
We would ask that you assist us in enforcing the forum community standard and back us up on this decision.
Rules are for a purpose and support the community. Those wishing to partake of that communities fruits must abide by it's rules. It is no different than inviting someone into your house and advising them that you have a "no smoking" edict. If they cannot abide by that edict, they are banned or expelled.... It is merely common courtesy, one who does not abide is slapping your face, especially when knowling, purposly showing disrespect. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-web+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-web+owner@opensuse.org
