A brief reminder......
« on: 12 October 2012, 18:37:08 »

...... of one section of the forum guidelines.

Excessive use of bad language of any description will not be tolerated, neither will the use of certain words (masked or otherwise) which we hope should be plain and obvious to anyone who can read these guidelines and be intelligent enough to work out what kind of behavior is and isn't allowed.

There has been a need of late to moderate some posts where certain profanities (albeit asterisk amended or similar).  Some posters do this more than others.

Please desist. I am no prude by any stretch of the imgination but I do not like to see some of these words appear here.

Ta.  :y

Erm we need to get the perspective here. There are some Admins that also use certain words. We can't have double standards now can we :y

We can all use certain words.

One word I know from experience on here that does cause grief, however, is the 'C' word.

And thats not cock, crap, clap, clock, clip - you get the gist.....

The use of bad language is a sign of limited vocabulary.  ::)

But doesn't that give the wrong impression to new members? We have Admins & other members (myself included) using certain words, but then they or older members get pulled up for it.
Personally the C word doesn't bother me, nor does any other word for that matter. I bet there's someone out there that doesn't like the word shite or any other profanity that appears, but doesn't say anything.

As far as I'm concerned we should have a blanket ban on swear words. After all what';s right & what's wrong :-\ :-\

I'm not picking on anyone, just making a point :) ;)
