As of 5:00 PM on Thursday, June 8 th 2006, I have decided that at 12:00 AM on June 30th 2006, I will be closing my account on this site. Yes this site met it goals back when I first got on here, helping me with my endeavor to learn music. I believe, however, this site has lost site of the goal...The goal is being met but the site doesnt seem to be as focused on it as it was 2 years ago. This site is growing, yes, but it has become a social club somewhat. A place where you hear bout God alot, but its mixed in with hearing gossip and/or bickering back and forth and/or controversial topics almost as much. This is in no way an attack on anyone and yes we should have fun, but if your fun isnt christ-like and christ-centered, then someone gets hurt. This has somewhat to do with that award and other things. I've learned less this year about God and music and all that than last year. Nowadays, when I log on, I get bashed on the head, and belittled 1) because of my age and 2) cuz yall feel its not wrong its harmless fun. Well enough is enough....I saw a post on here about a year back and it was askin why teens come and go to church..this is why. You cant be having a deep revelation from God one minute, but then wanna talk about someone in a "fun" way the next...As teens we look for real christians, ppl who are saved and are the same way in season and out of season....Some of you are soooooooooo on time with your words of encouragment and revelations from the throne room and all that, but they mean nothing when you turn around and "in harmless fun" act out of the image u have given ppl (man/woman of God, man/woman of prayer etc etc etc) So with that said I am closing lilmanofgod down on June 30th 2006 @ 12:00AM. The "funeral" will be held July 3rd 2006 @ approxiamately 2 PM (unless I am on CP time) where I will log on as a guest and give the epilogy and benediction. For those of you who made a positive impact on my life....not many but to name them all: SisterT, Loopy, itsapeachworld, lumbear, praizehim, lilcarolina, nessalyn and Bizzy. Thank you all so much for what you did to impact my life for the better. I love you all deeply and pray the hand of Almighty God rest on you heavily. 4HG thank you for providing this site to help further my music ambissions. If I offended any of you during my time on this site, please forgive me. For those of you that know you offended me and/or ticked me off and didnt have enough courage to apologize for whatever reason, I forgive you, I bless you and pray the hand of God rest on you heavily. THANK YOU ALL AND I AM GOING TO STOP TYPING OR IMA CRY! Be Blessed, Josh

That's to bad that you are leaving. :( :'(

You make valid points lilman, but ya know it's kinda like church, in that there will always be hurts and stuff that makes you wanna walk away. But in the end, there are some good people around here, and you never know, your being here might be teaching some of us a thing or two. I know I've learned some things about young folks since knowing you. (Look at me, 28 talkin' like I'm 75 ;) )
I know you are old enough to make your own decisions, and it looks like you thought it through a lot, but maybe between now and the 30th, you can pray about it, and see if your mind might change a little.
Whatever you decide, I wanna let you know a couple of things I appreciate about you:
You're sensitive, but you bounce back quickly. You could be "pi**ed" in the morning and by afternoon you're back at it.
You're quick to forgive, I like that because you're gonna need it a lot in life
You're passionate about your beliefs, I can respect that even if I don't always agree. Why believe it if you can't believe it with all your heart?
Your name suits you, you're a lilmanofGod, and one day I fully expect to see you as an awesome, mighty man of God, on TBN or in revival somewhere ;)
You're a young person, and it seems like all of your role models are men and women of God. I can't say that about too many young folks I know.
Be encouraged, my friend. Stay with God and you'll be alright. Don't let anybody make you change, even if they say things about who you are, be all that God made you to be, and if it gets on their nerves, then so be it. Listen to wise counsel, and if there are things about yourself that you can improve, do it, but don't change who you are. God made you that way for a reason.
I'll see you around, alright?
Love,
Ness

LilMan....you are the second person I'm telling this today....don't make a lifetime decision while you are emotional. In otherwords. you are hurt, that's understandable, and it is not the time for you to make a "final" decision.
Wow, a thread that was "suppose" to be fun, really ended up hurting a lot of people. I think we adults can learn a lesson here...from "out of the mouth of babes" if you will.
I'm sorry that you were hurt by some of the comments. I hope you reconsider. Just take a a little time off to think. We hear you & symphatize with you.
As Nessa said, STAY ENCOURAGE, my SON. Much love to you.

It's truly sad when certain circumstances (and people) make it necessary for someone to end their relationship with LGM. This is the SECOND PERSON TODAY who has decided to end their LGM affiliation. :(
Can some of ya'll (and ya know who you are) who like to make hurtful remarks all in the name of "fun" (btw: whose fun are we talking about here? >:() , rethink your ways versus how you say you want the world to see you as a man/woman of God?
I generally like to mind my own business, but what I've witnessed by way of hurtful posts just this week alone really saddens me because I know this is not what 4HG intended when he started this website.
Rethink your motives, folks.........it's praying time.

Thankfully, that person has decided to stay. (at least that's what I was told by the individual) ;)

lilman, you are by no means by yourself in your 'wanting to leave'....there have been plenty of times to where we have all contemplated peacing out. Even SisterT said herself that there was a point to where she was like 'this is not worth it'
I tihnk you are really making a quick decision out of spite and anger. Let me remind you sir: When I talk to you, I keep forgetting that you are a 15 year old young male.....because you clown just like the rest of us. One thing I learned when growing up.....if you are going to try to entertain adult conversation, be ready to take the whole conversation.
Let me go ahead and be real and just say that I feel like I have a lot to do with your decision, and I'm sorry to see you go. If you feel that this is the need for you, then by all means do so. One thing I wanted to say though is when you meet us, you are meeting us full circle. We can be encouragers one second and be able to joke and clown the next. Is it being fake or phony: absolutely not! I have personal relationships with both of my pastors and just know that they don't walk around every hour with their cloak on quoting scripture. I can get an insightful Word from my pastor one minute and slap cards the next and talk mad junk. We are all people lilmanofgod. We all have flaws, but I think the issue that you are having is you feel that things can't be handled in a mature manner.
Talking to you in PMs is a totally different person....you talk to me like I'm a brother and I give you the same respect....so I thought you knew that it was all in honest fun. The award was not meant to bash you, but just to pick fun.....shoot I got picked for always having something smart to say. I could've got upset, but I made fun out of it.
If I said I didn't love you, I would be lying. Honestly reconsider your decision.

Not decided......contemplating!!

I have to admit, as stated in the 'State of LGM' post that things have been out of control, but also, remember that the craziness has only gone on from a handful of people/
But that day of craziness is over, hurtful post, arguing back and forth, will no longer be tolerated. It will be delted immediately. We are not going to let a few, bring the entire site down.

Wow, for learning music, I have never seen anything like this site. With the addition of the Audio/Video room, the possibilities are endless. You can post midis and have others improve upon it, comment or whatever. You can PM folks who laid down some midis that were tight. What other gospel outlet allows you to do all that?
There's so much good information on here that it amounts to sensory overload. Leaving would be like throwing out the baby with the bath water.
One or two people posted some lame award about you, and now you want to bounce. Don't ever give another person that much power over you. Man up.

To me...when you have a group of people conversating...even if it's over the web and about Godly matters...there's bound to be a difference of opinion. I call that "life". True, most of us on here are adults, but a part of being an adult is the ability to listen...to listen even when you don't agree. I know arguing isn't the purpose of this board, but I love hearing different points of views..and YES some are more sensative than others, and most of us get along. I know you are young lilman, but I hope you stick around and don't "run". As they say....Chew the meat, but throw out the bone...just my opinion.
-
Im sorry that you have decided to leave but I hope that you know that you are loved here and will reconsider. Although I missed most of the drama and dont have a clue as to whats going on I pray that you stay a part of the LGM clan.

Baggettcindy ~ the conversing that's been going on of late is not a simple matter of difference of opinion. It's about people making negative hurtful comments......drama....mess. ::)

I can't say much more than what's been said already. I laughed at some of the things that were done and said. I'm sorry for that. I hadn't been here long and thought it was just kind of a on going joke between you and others. This is a great forum and I don't think there are many like it. Hopefully you'll decide to stay and atleast give it another chance. :)

Lil Man of God:
Pleassssssssseeee DONT GO! :'( :-\ ?/? :'(
We promise to do better and be better...Or at least I promise.
I hope that I have never said anything to hurt you or cause you to leave and if I have, please forgive me. You broke the ice with this thread, Im so glad you did. No one wants to loose a part of their family and you and peach leaving would be like loosing family. This would be a good time for all of us to apologize and ask for forgiveness. Thanks for being the example Lilmanof God!
Keep letting God use you.

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You thought that about ME lilman? Dude! I almost cried at one o'clock in the morning! Geesh!
Enjoy your next 21 days, sir. Even though I say, don't go.
I've been around ever since there was an LGM, so for people like me to come and go is no biggie. A lady walked in the real estate office to try and speak with someone about selling her home and saw something I was laying out in Word (and mezmerized that a guy could type that fast - whatever). She called right back within 4 minutes of leaving (estimate) and told me to GO HOME AND PRAY about a job paying $35g's a year plus travel when needed.
With that, the insurance details from the wreck, and giving more time to COMPLETE CHANGE and the new CD.....I will have enough to keep me busy.
But I wish you well, and you are one of few people who know how to reach me if needed. Peace out li'l bruh.

LilMan
I understand completely how you feel. I try and stay in the piano/keyboard forums and basically discuss music (although I got excited about the Xmen conversation, and some sports stuff). But I agree, its been a lot of arguing and backdoor threats going on lately.
Basically, I just stay out of those conversations. If stuff starts to get hot, I just quit replying (sometimes you have to take the low and let the other person have the last word).
But to be your age and have the zeal for God that you do, I admire you for that. Remember , the purpose for you being here is music, to me the lounge is a bonus, but music is the number one reason I stay and continue to participate. Its people on here with major KNOWLEDGE when it comes to music, and I'm here to catch as many gold nuggets ( and drop a few when I can) as possible.
Be blessed where-ever you go and whatever you do.

Its not what people do to us that hurts us, its our chosen repsonse to what they do that hurts us. :(
Sometimes you have to look at negative experiences like they are a bumps in a road. They may slow you down but you get over them and move on.
Peace

Alot of good sound advice above, brother lilman.

I hope you can stay.

Wayne, this ain't even about you! so don't trip literally or figuretively (whatever) I DARE SOMEBODY
It's much deeper than that and you apologized. WAYYYY Long time ago, ... what more could you do!
Issues... my brother issues....
power, insecurity, authority, wannabe, tryna be .... issues
I know I"m gone catch it for this one...
but somebody HAD to say it!
-
Oh and one more thing...
IMHO...
I think that this is an attention grabber...
Now don't get me wron I am not coming down on the boy... and I do believe that he is hurt by what was said to and about him... But people need to get thicker skin FO REAL!!!!!!
I was upset with someone in my church and they made me so mad that I made this BIG exit... and let eeerrrbody know that I was MAD >:( and that I aint coming back EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER did I say EVER, again... and guess what happen... I came back...
AND I realized that what I was mad about wasn't even nothing... But it was like the straw that broke the camel's back... It had piled on so heavey that if someone would have told me Boo I would have skipped town... Then I found out that although I was upset with what the person said to me... it I hadn't been dealing with other things in my life it would have been like water off a ducks back...
I said all that to say this (Don't chile just HATE that saying ;) ) If you are upset about something that was posted, sent in an email, PM, IM, courier pegeon, whatever... Take a step back and see what you are really upset about... Sure some people can take a joke too far... but people need to learn how to take a joke...
In my warped mind (SHUT UP ALL YALL WIT THE COMMENTS) I take everything as a joke online... because I caint see their facial expressions... unless it is stated to me that it is serious... OR if I have met that person in person or spoken to them on the phone... I can tell how they are... but maybe that's just me... But as I said before... Take a step back and deesculate the sit-che-a-shun....
Take Herman for instance... To my understanding he deleted his "itsallpeach" account because of some people ganging up on him... Vowing to never return... And I also heard that he was going to delete his account again... but look at him now... He is back "itsapeachworld" in FULL FORCE ;D... Its really hard to stay away from a good thing...
What ever you decide its up to you... But I know for a fact that you don't want to leave because you would have left already... Without announcing it... When you really want to leave you just bounce... You don't tell anyone or ask for permission...
Okay I am done... ;)
-
Lets remember a few things
1)This is not an attention grabber. This is a statement issued to say what I felt and what many others feel but dont want to say. I didnt want no controversy and/or misbeliefs about why i left and i stated the facts as to why i am leaving and why some might decide to leave in the future..
2) I dont need any of yalls attention...I get enuff at home skool work and church so dont need too much more
3)This has nothin to do with thick skin, skinny skin etc etc lol...This has to do with this has happened (get ready nakia and LGM) over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again and the award thing was jus like a...icing on the cake for lack of better words. So my skin is pretty thick and scarred sitting here and taking it for these last few months.

praizeHim, why dont you elaborate on this.... 8)

Some of us... especially the younger more immature,
Need an ATTENTION grabber, Only because our skill sets have allowed us to become more Thick skinned!
Lilman, is still a child... and should be dealt with as such, with kit gloves and a loving, guiding hand.
Not to catupult him into a :o :o realization of Church and Church folk
Engage, Embrace and Empower!
This could have been a cry out for relief but please don't badger him .... he's still yet learning
... as we all are

Um praizeHim...can u like read my post b4 urs...then u will understand y i did this.....its has nothin to do wit a cry out for nothin or an ATTENTION grabber...i dont see why everyone stuck on that...if thats what u think so be it...its is my...look jus read my post....

This is why i posted, this and this only....dont concoct ur on theories LGM...i have stated my reasons...and as morgan freeman said on Lean on Me "and so i kicked them bastards out and thats all i'm gonna say about that!" (disregard the bastard part...i put it so yall can remember why he said it.... :P
-
I dont know what triggered this I dont read a lot of post and I can sense when I need to stop reading some of the threads as well. However I did read this one. I also with a spiritual eye read between the lines. So LilmanofGod..know where you are, know where you want to be, also know where you are not. I would be happy toaddress you privately as this has something to do wiht your frustration. Not everythign shoudl be sad in the open. Defensive walls can shoot up when a person feel s that have been put on front street.
LilmanofGod - I was young as you are. Nothing is wrong with that be young you will nto always be. But know that with youth, comes some hurdles that are hard to climb at times. Everything seems so urgent and matter of fact. Trust those of us and the ones you respect on here, when we say slowdown. It not about you beinf right or wrong. We must validate feelings because they are real. After that youhave to be able to broaden your view and youcan only do that by taking a few steps back. This is where youth makes it hard. But God is able. i did not hear you say " I have prayed and waited on God to give me what to do". If you did, you have not said it so it leaves me to believe you have not done that. If you haven't then this decision is the wrong decesion. IF you have, then just leave now, stop responding to us becaue God has spoken clearly to you. You dont need to announce you are leaving in a public manner, just leave and send a pm to those whom you value relationship with. It is that simple when God has given clarity.
-
and as morgan freeman said on Lean on Me "and so i kicked them bastards out and thats all i'm gonna say about that!" (disregard the bastard part...i put it so yall can remember why he said it.... :P
Not that you needed them (or even want them from me) but that there is THE FUNNIEST thing I've read today. ;D ;D ;D
BTW, that's one of my all-time favorite movies.
On to serious business, I agree with Lilman!
It seems that we (as a people) always want others to conform to how we think and view the world. Well, here's the memo, I hope you get it, other people aren't us, and we aren't other people.
It is UNFAIR of us to try and change people; besides only GOD can do that! So, when someone says they are hurt, physically, emotionally, spiritually; perceived or real, WE need to take a step back and LISTEN to what THEY are saying and try to avoid putting our 'spin' on it.
"Its not what you say, its how you say it." ;)

Your alterego, funeral would disagree.
Ok now I'm with NAKIA, you grandstanding now.... if you gone you gone
I'm still in your corner Lilman, but you WAY into the melodramatic now!!!
I'm gone leave it alone and PM you BBoy's "gotta word"
Bastards... how darest you!!!
Where yo mama at! You've taken it too far now! Look for the PM (if your account is still active)
I'm stickin' my neck out defending you and you come back with some lame crap like that! I'm shocked and appalled, and won't be duped by your tears any longer!
I'm out!
No need...i am leavin i wont comment on ur other comments......but again
1)This is not an attention grabber/grandstanding. I am doing what i said i was going to do. Also, this is a statement issued to say what I felt and what many others feel but dont want to say. I didnt want no controversy and/or misbeliefs about why i left and i stated the facts as to why i am leaving and why some might decide to leave in the future..
2) I dont need any of yalls attention...I get enuff at home skool work and church so dont need too much more
3)This has nothin to do with thick skin, skinny skin etc etc lol...This has to do with this has happened (get ready nakia and LGM) over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again and the award thing was jus like a...icing on the cake for lack of better words. So my skin is pretty thick and scarred sitting here and taking it for these last few months.

You dont need to announce you are leaving in a public manner, just leave and send a pm to those whom you value relationship with. It is that simple when God has given clarity.
What ever you decide its up to you... But I know for a fact that you don't want to leave because you would have left already... Without announcing it... When you really want to leave you just bounce... You don't tell anyone or ask for permission...
Okay I am done... ;)

Lilman, is still a child... and should be dealt with as such, with kit gloves and a loving, guiding hand.

Anyways, I will say this.
Lilman I respect you coming to the forefront and sharing your issues and reasons for leaving. You should not feel bad for doing such, as the Bible instructs us to do so. However, because you let all of this hash up to where it's caused this, many people are going to look at this as a "Hey look at me, I want everyone to feel sorry for me." The past matters that we had were supposedly rectified in our PMs, which is why we are still cool to this day. You told me in the PMs when we had our issues earlier that 'yeah, I just got heated' which led me to believe that I was somehow not responsible. Because you did not bring your fault to me, I think that is why we have these issues. (I can only speak for myself). If you would've came from the get and tell me 'Man I still love you, but I didn't appreciate how you....' we would not be seeing this post today.
Secondly about this post, if you feel peace with God about leaving the site, you could've just packed up, peaced out, and informed the people that you are cool with your decisions. In all the stories that I know in the Bible, the only time when God said to do something, nobody was informed of it unless the person was in leadership or if the person had an immediate family. Because you are not a moderator, you really owed it to anyone to share on a public board your decisions, although you did. When you do that, you allow people to honestly write posts about their beliefs, which is what you have to take for 'opening yourself out there' (that's what happened with the poll that you did about yourself). You don't have to like the opinions, but you do have to respect them.
But I'm not coming down on you, people do need to realize that you are only 15 years old with not a whole lot of experience as most of us. I'm not belittling you, but at the same time, we tend to forget his age because of the way he posts and the comments he makes, which most time are not your average 15 year old. HOWEVER, like I said earlier, when you come clowning on someone, you have given the ticket to do the same thing back.
lilmanofgod, I honestly can say I love you.....and I'm not being biased, but this is an open opinion of the situation
