Why is it even in question?

If Jews choose to keep shabbat it's their obligation not to violate it by posting. It shouldn't be up to somebody else to shut down the forum.

Like the obligation is to not turn lights on. The power company shouldn't have to turn the electricity off.

so rabbinical of you, newman  :laugh:

I'll argue that black is white. I'd be good at that Talmudic hairsplitting thing. ;)

The Sabbath is to be a day of rest, I know. Is an observant Jew allowed to hang out with friends and maybe have a game of hockey, soccer, ect?

The satanic barbaric deathcult of islam spread like a cancer throughout the world, killing and destroying everything it touches. muslims are like the hiv/aids virus, subverting the societies of non muslim lands only to allow the cancer of islam to consume and destroy. muslim, I curse and hate you, your 'prophet', 'g o d' and deathcult.

 Its not in the spirit of Shabb-t. If you are observent allready for some time then you shoudnt do it. (also theirs an issue of sweating), but if you are just starting then you should ask your personal Rav and he will tell you whats right according to your level.

‏119:139 צִמְּתַתְנִי קִנְאָתִי כִּישָׁכְחוּ דְבָרֶיךָ צָרָי
My zeal incenses me, for my adversaries have forgotten Your words.
‏119:141 צָעִיר אָנֹכִי וְנִבְזֶה פִּקֻּדֶיךָ, לֹא שָׁכָחְתִּי.
 I am young and despised; I have not forgotten Your precepts.

" A fool does not realize, and an unwise person does not understand this (i.e. the following:) When the wicked bloom like grass, and the evildoers blossom (i.e. when they seem extremly successful), it is to destroy them forever (i.e. they are rewarded for their few good deeds in this World, and they will have no portion in the World to Come!)
