Title: Purgatory
Post by: wolf39us on July 17, 2014, 11:54:51 PM
For those of you that missed this... For a bit of a fun I have added (by suggestion of our members) a section where I will ban trolls into.  They will not be visible to any of the regular members UNLESS you become a "troll keeper".

They will only see one forum called "Purgatory".

If any of you want access to this forum, let me know!

My favorite depiction of Purgatory is still the endless filling out of IRS-like forms. You have to fill them out for every good and bad deed that you've ever done along with everything else on IRS forms for all of eternity

Well, you might have to fill out IRS forms; I really can't say.  But I always though purgatory was like a refugee camp where some iffy type souls hang out while God makes up his mind what to do with them.  As I recall, Purgatory is not necessarily an eternity, like if you just sinned enough that God is not sure what to do with you, you can still go to Heaven if you are on your good behavior while you're in the waiting period.  But then I was a Protestant, so we need Azzi (remember Azzi) to explain the precise mechanics of Purgatory so we can all understand exactly how it works.

purgatory is not eternal.  scriptures says nothing un clean shall enter heaven , so purgatory is the place where people are purified and made perfect for heaven.  everyone in purgatory gets to heaven Someday.

Can I have a pass?  Or a key?

But you're a troll. You have five posts, and join here solely to have a key to Purgatory. Plus, your name is "corn" -- can you be more obvious?

Yeah...good try, Frosty.

Makes sense.  Your soul is given a metaphorical shower before you get a white robe that has been sanitized for heaven where everyone is squeaky clean, walking around in their white robes and saying hello and howdy to everyone else.

You're giving far to much attention to these people which I think is attracting more of their behavior. Now they have an audience and you're just to eager to be entertained. There's a reason most prisons are located away from major cities and the inmates kept away from the public aside from safety.

APA I like the purgatory idea very much. Some members like me want to play with our chewtoys for a while. Other members don't want to see trolls shitting the boards. The purgatory is a great idea.

There's a reason most prisons are located away from major cities and the inmates kept away from the public aside from safety.

What you got to ask yourself is this:

Is it better to have them in a "prison" here away from regular members, or with the regular members consistently interrupting the commerce of the website?

Continuously banning him/them didn't seem really to work; so far, how much interruption has there been? At least give it a trial run before automatically presuming it's nonsense.

If you do not wish to partake, don't.

Personally, I think this is a good learning tool. It helps members to identify trolls, trollish behaviour, and perhaps what they do or say that could place them in purgatory, and how to avoid such a place.

Prisons, actual ones, are hardly about rehabilitation (at least in the US), since many of them today are run by private companies, they're more about keeping prisoners because they are their profit margin.

But, the only profit here would be knowledge, and perhaps not rehabilitation but how to successfully combatant such indiscretions.

I'm offensive and I find you French.

Wait...

Anyways in regards to APA's remark; I am sorta of the same mind, but I am torn between two trains of thought. I want to give me reasons why I am a fan of it, but I am afraid if they (he?) reads it... it will make him do the opposite of why I am a fan of it. So let's just say I think it could be a blessing but am not sold on it.

You are for real ? You are a catholic and you are in doubt about the existence of the pulgatory?  How ironic. The pulgatory is REALLY real.
