I agree that site - a flame board - promotes argument, which is not a Christian value. Since Usenet in 1992, my main hobby was being a daily participant in leading Internet flame boards. The main purpose of those boards is for people to argue with each other. As you may be able to tell from the fact I stopped participating in that site beginning several months ago, except to politely reply to a few posts and talk about this new one, I'm no longer interested or involved in the behavior represented by that and similar sites.

But I can't kill that site, I'm only the 50% owner of it. I can't destroy property that doesn't belong to me. All I can do is renounce it and stop using it. I've already been donating the small share of profit I receive from that site to charity.

It's my belief that God forgave all my sins when I was saved, including all those I committed on that site when I was argumentative and hateful toward others. There is nothing illegal on that site, and no pornography, racism or anything else I know to be sinful, except for people boasting and arguing about video games.

That other site has served as a platform to launch this one, and so has served the Lord in that regard. I've taken significant criticism and persecution on that site by talking about my faith in Christ and announcing this new site. I'm not sure I could have possibly come out stronger or made a greater demonstration of my new faith than I've done. But that's all good. My point is that the purpose of this site is to glorify and praise God.

And finally, I believe that God wants us to bring others to him, and we can't do that if we only hang out with others who are saved. And a main purpose of this site is to promote interaction between saved and sinners, as stated in the first paragraph of our Site Rules:
I'm convinced that maintaining a conduit between that site and this one is in accordance with the teachings and examples of Jesus, for example:
The bottom line is, I can't call sinners to repentance if I shun them and destroy their meeting place.
