Who must become a group admin

To: All group members and admin

As what was been specified in this blog that no non-catholic would be accepted to become admin since this is an all catholic group that is open to all. But the exemption would be eventhough they are not to be admitted to become one of the admin yet they are permitted to become an observer. There can be two non-catholic observer in the group. They will represent their church in this group. But they are not exempted from the rules nor from the disciplinary actions since the rules and disciplinary actions are binding to all except the group spiritual director and creator. The admin will choose two among the non-catholic members and they will present the name of the persons chosen before the group creator. Then the group creator will decide who will be the two who will be chosen as the group observer. The group observer will not be placed under the jurisdiction of the lower admin with the exemption of the group service controller, manager and prefect of discipline, they are directly answerable before the group overall director, assistant director and group creator. They are not permitted to use the admin's blog but they are only permitted to use the member's blog. They are the one's who will supervise their non-catholic colleagues, if some of their colleagues violated the rules, they must reprimand them and correct them if their colleagues do not listen to them but still persists then they must report it to the group admin for proper disciplinary action, they can intervene for their collegues but it would be at the discretion of the admin if their request would be accepted or not if the violators would be spared or not from being punished. But if they themselves are the ones who supported the violators then the admin will report it before the concerned authorities and this guilty observers would be punished with the proper disciplinary action, if they apologize then no punishment would be given. This is for the good of the group in order to maintain order, discipline and justice among the members. So that they will have a voice before the group.

Disciplinary Action

After further deliberation and discussion, the group admin had agreed to establish and implement certain disciplinary actions for those who violate the established group rules and regulations, and therefore in to maintain order and discipline in the group the admin had made some guidelines in giving proper action to these violators, the admin also agreed that these sanctions would be based on the guidelines being given by the Sacred Scripture in order for these sanctions to have a Christian basis and foundation and meaning in implementing it.

"You must obey the governing authorities. Since all government comes from God, the civil authorities were appointed by God, and so anyone who resists authority is rebelling against God's decision, and such an act is bound to be punished."(Romans 13:1-2)

First Gravity of Offense:

If the offender posts in the discussion board and uses insulting, degrading and obscene words, his post will be automatically be removed and he be given warning and reprimand not to do it again.If the person is an admin he will be given notice for doing such an act and his post be automatically removed from the discussion board.

Second Gravity of Offense:

If the offender after being given warning and reprimand still persists in posting posts and uses degrading words and violates the other rules. He will be given due process before two or three group admin and one group member in order to explain the reason in doing such thing. His post will be automatically be removed, he will be under probation and if he still did not take heed, he will be blocked from the group. If he/she is an admin, he will also be given due process and temporarily be under probation and he/she is temporarily been suspended in doing the role of being an admin and be suspended from doing his/her role as an officer of the group. If he/she takes heed and repents sincerely and promised not to do it anymore, he/ she will be restored from the group and if he/she is an admin will again be restored in being an admin and the suspension be lifted.

Third Gravity of Offense

If the offender after being placed under probation and given due process still insists in posting and have violated again the rules and did not take heed from any warning, reprimand, due process and probation. The offender will be banned from using the discussion board or posting anything to it and his account be blocked, his post will also be automatically removed. If he/she is an admin he is not only suspended but will be removed from the list of the admin, he would be banned from posting on the admin blog nor from the group discussion board and his account will also be blocked. If he/she repents and sincerely refutes all his/her wrongdoing, he will be given a second chance from the group, but if he is an admin, he is not immediately be reinstated but will depend on the decision on the admins whether they agree to reinstate him/her from the list of admins or not, if they all cannot unite in their decision, then it is now the group creator to decide on that matter after due discernment. If not that person will be allowed to the use the group but he will not be given again the role of the admin and he will lose the privilege that is intended for the admin.

Fourth Gravity of Offense

This fourth gravity of offense would be graviest being done by a member or an admin to the group. Consulting upon the guidelines being given by the Gospel this part of the disciplinary action would now fall on the decision of the group admins and the group members. The offender if he still persists after being subject to the first three disciplinary actions still persists and did not humble himself before the group will not only be blocked nor be suspended or his/her post automatically be removed but he/she will be removed from the group, but before that following the Gospels of bringing the offender before the Church, the offender will be given the last due process but now not between two or three witnessess but before all the members and admin of the group. They would be the ones to give the verdict. If he/she did not repents and is proven guilty, and did not humble himself, he will be automatically be expelled from the group. Similar to what was written in the Scriptures to treat him/her as a publican.And therefore he/she is not permitted again to join the group. But of course if he/she show some signs of repentance during the due process, like a prodigal son he will be fully be accepted again by the group but it would be upon the decision and descrition already of the whole group to accept him/her to group and it is them who would welcome him/her togther with all the admin like a prodigal sone returning to his father and the father received him/her. That person will receive again all the privileges of being a member but if he/she is a former admin, this is already the exception because he will not be immediately be reinstated to become one of the admin. But it depends upon the decision of the admin and the creator of the group if they have proven the person's sincerity and worthiness to be reinstated in the roster of names of the admins.

These disciplinary actions will still be subject to revision and addition, the whole admin thereofore implements the following sanctions for the betterment of the group and in order to maintain discipline and order to the group according to the Gospel values and being inspired by it.

Therefore, the whole admin approves the following disciplinary actions.


Given on the 28 of March in the year of our Lord 2010, Holy Monday
