Are PM's really private?

Omega is labeled as a "servant" administrator is a different position than a servant. You can question George or Omega on this if you want. George is labeled as a "steward". That is a person who has ownership or looks over the whole messageboard. 

Actually Servant is an Admin title.  There are several that have behind the scenes servant abilities if I have a need arise.  But the way posts are reported these days ... it's much less than back in the day.  I believe more so because I don't have the patience to deal with those who consistently stir the pot.  When I first ran the forums I was 28 ... and everyone was older than I was ...now I'm over 50 and these days I've just developed a shorter leash and wish to spend my time more wisely. 

For example the total number of reported posts this entire week was ... 16 reported posts.  It's not like it used to be.  There was times when I didn't ban people and we'd have 15 reports daily!   2-3 reports a day ... not too crazy. 

Be blessed,

George

Yes, these labels were chosen by George to fit his ministry.   Omega is an administrator, but not a super administrator.  Only George is one of those. 

Over the years I've had several conversations with George and the thing that impressed me was that George never failed to acknowledge that he is " merely" the Steward of Worthy Christian Forums.

The Super Administrator/ Owner is God..... Everything is His,including this Ministry.If I've learned nothing at all from George at least I learned that & that is to never forget WHO EVERYTHING belongs to .... Indeed,we are merely stewards.

Glory to God for this Worthy Ministry!

I have no doubts about George being humble, I have spoken to him, too.  Overall, a great guy. 

When I said George is a super-adminstrator know that it is just a technical term in answer to a question.  I was expressing the administrator level of his account here, equivalent to root level access in a system like Unix, or Supervisor in a system like Novell, or an Enterprise Administrator in a Microsoft system.  I doubt there are Servants and Stewards on other forums made by Invision Community.  I believe George made a group equivalency to these administrator roles that are unique to this site.  Sorry if this illustration offended you, but I am puzzled as to why.

I would say this site belongs to George, but yes ultimately everything belongs to God.

 I don't know what in the world would give you the impression that what you said offended me in anyway,because I quoted you perhaps? I find that odd but in any event just as you expressed your reasons for using the term" super administrator" I have expressed what George has told me his reasons for the terms he did" in fact" choose for this place.....funny,I still have difficulty referencing WCF as just a " site" or " message board" as so many do....Worthy is so much more than that,it is truly a Ministry.

 I really didn't expect any reply from you because my sentiments had absolutely nothing to do with you and I'm a little confused as to why you have taken it so personal..... My purpose of my message was not to praise George for his humilty but to Glorify Almighty God for Who He IS...  

George answered the question that was asked,Omegaman is an Administrator.

Anyway,I quote people often as a reference for one thing or another  and it doesn't mean a thing ,no ulterior motives - lol

Not so personal, just confused because I was quoted.  I appreciate your clarifying that you quoted me for no particular reason because when you quote a person, it looks exactly like you are addressing them directly.  It looked corrective.

I agree that a ministry is more than it's platform.  God bless.

It is called humility and we don't see that much of it in the Christian world today.

Hi Peeps

Apparently the other person in the PM included Omega. I did not know that. 

What a rotten thing to do to someone. Sorry that happened to you.

I think it was my fault for not noticing someone else was added to the PM. I won't let that happen again.

It was a tiny oversight which led to some misunderstanding. Saying it was your "fault" makes it sound like you did something "wrong"! It was just an innocent mistake and the thing got overblown. I think it is past time that people let it go, but hey, what do I know?  It was over two weeks ago, is there anything more to say which has not been said?
