Question
Hi!

Katie, I am one of your experts, in category 2323. I have a serious question for you, and while I have your attention, I've had something stuck in my craw in our category for some time. I would like to take this opportunity to address both issues.

I just received an advertisement for a book that teaches contrary to everything we stand for in our category. It is likely that others received the same; I will know soon enough, for one expert is my personal friend. I marked the thing, "There is no question here." Now, the advertisement is put out there for all to read (or so it seems to me). Is there any way to remove it from the list of past questions?

Now, I will turn to my second issue. There is a "volunteer" in our category called, "Life Lessons," or some other such garbage. They are not a member of the church. Rather they are part of many denominations, all of which oppose the church. This is just par for the course with all denominations, and I do not desire to get into a shouting match with them. Let's just say, since they are in a denomination, they are automatically excluded from the church. With such a status, there is no way they can be expert in the doctrine of the Bible.

I have waited so long, watching the board for anything ansered by them, but so far I have seen nothing. Is there some way to remove their status as one of us before they confuse someone with denominational teaching that someone may believe is from the church?

I enjoy being one of your experts. Sometimes the questions seem to come flooding in when I have the least amount of time to spend on them, but when I take the time to answer, I am greatly rewarded.

I eagerly await your reply.

In His Service,
Marvin Howard

Answer
I blocked the spammer and deleted all her "questions".

As to Life Lessons, they can be removed by a unanimous vote from the other volunteers in the category. If you can get the 3 other experts in your category to write in with the same request, I will deactivate their account.

Hope this helps and
thanks for volunteering,
Katie
