Hello and welcome to RF, new members!

This thread is for you to ask the mods anything about RF. This can include questions about the rules, the forum history, or the different forums in general.

A note for all members: Please keep in mind that only staff members may answer questions in this thread. Any answers by non-staff members will be deleted.

Thank you,

Debater Slayer, on behalf of the RF staff.

Question. Where are the user group descriptions?

 

[Skwim]

"Recent Posts" and "New Posts," Any real difference?

Can you give us general statistics on the religious beliefs of the admins/mods? Of course no user names are necessary.

Question. Where are the user group descriptions?

I don't see them at the moment. They're not there anymore, at least from what I can see.

 

[Debater Slayer]

"Recent Posts" and "New Posts," Any real difference?

Recent Posts shows all new posts even if you have read them, whereas New Posts shows only the new posts that you haven't read.

Someone created a thread for that two and a half years ago:

STAFF: What's the ratio of believers vs nonbelievers? | ReligiousForums.com

Keep in mind that a lot of the staff who voted in that poll have retired or stopped being active, though, and we have hired a lot of mods since then. Currently, most active mods are theists, with beliefs ranging from Hinduism and Paganism to Islam and Christianity. The active admins are split about evenly between theism and non-theism at the moment.

@Skwim, I updated my post above about Recent Posts and New Posts to note the difference between the two; I hadn't noticed the distinction before.

Is creating an introduction thread necessary if you want to interact with other members in RF?

Is creating an introduction thread necessary if you want to interact with other members in RF?

No. It is an opportunity to introduce yourself. You are not required to do so.

Welcome!

Thanks.

No, but it can't hurt to let other members know about some of your background.
