I want to remind the board that Mental and Ceeboo have started exactly zero threads on the Celestial forum.

I want to confirm to the board that Ceeboo has started exactly zero threads on the Celestial forum. (I can't speak for "Mental" though)
So, because you’re literally ignorant about posting on the Celestial forum you felt posting some fantasy scenario you created in your dome about posting as a believer on the board was legitimate, even though you never, not once, posted as a believer on the Celestial forum. Wow. Do you ever get tired of carrying that cross around?

Check.
Thank you to the good doc for bringing this to the board’s attention. Important that we all know this. I wonder how many the good doc has started on the CF…not that I REALLY care or even want to know.
I suppose for me, if you are feeling overwhelmed but also decide not to leverage any of the tools (both those built in the board but also in your actions) to help with that I find it hard to know where to go from here.
I don't think I ever said I was overwhelmed. I posted my thoughts on the board through my experiences.
You didn't imply it, mainly just referencing the initial point this whole thread was created.
Okay - No problem. I wasn't posting to the OP, I was posting on the recent posts I read when I posted.
Assuming you want to post here but fear you might be overwhelmed what other options do you see for a person to post here?
Again, I'm not overwhelmed. I do get really frustrated at times and I do become very weary at times and when I do, I usually take a break - or ignore it - or take a stand against the bullying and mockery. I don't presume to know or suggest what others ought to do, I just do me.

Ceebs, apologies if I was being unclear. I don't think you are overwhelmed, we aren't talking about you here specifically (at least that is what I thought). This whole line of conversation began about in reference to believing members who don't/can't post here because they are being overwhelmed by the unwashed masses that reside here and what one might do to correct for that. Your hypothetical was about a poster that seemed to fit that bill and was posted immediately following the topic of "overwhelmed posters" so I assumed we were still talking about that.
My point is this: if a believer from MD&D wants to post here but won't for fear of being overwhelmed and they won't leverage the tools available to them, what can be done?

Yes, everyone knows now that you're a bully who spent 8 months picking on posters who didn't share your political or religious views. Your two butt buddies ICARUS and Schmo aren't here to back you up anymore so you're left with Snooki and Lem/calm. You're a sad little man!

No apology necessary. I think we were on different lines of thought - thanks for the clarity, I am with you now!
My point is this: if a believer from MD&D wants to post here but won't for fear of being overwhelmed and they won't leverage the tools available to them, what can be done?
Nothing. Literally nothing! They would have to use the tools if they wanted to post here (and should absolutely use the Celestial)
Having said that, I would never advise a believing LDS person to come and post here and even with the tools, it will most certainly be a rough ride. Look, this board is what it is - I happen to really like this board and it's the only board I participate on but it is what it is.
From my view, it's the price that is required to be paid in order to have complete free speech - and I really value and enjoy such an idea. (Even when I become weary and/or frustrated)

I can certainly fully agree with the part I've bolded and glad to know where in agreement here. Thanks for taking the time to flesh this out.
