Feeling a bit cheesed off!!!
« on: 19 August 2009, 23:50:21 »

Seems to me that we are all getting upset and being made to feel guilty over swearing when we all know that the comments were aimed at Killerwatt, for his post that openly flouted the word filter!
Yes I swear apallingly for a woman, but I'll be damned if I'm gonna feel guilty about it!
Why are we pussy footing round this anti-social and unnecessary being???

No one is asked to feel guilty.  All thats asked is a bit of respect for each other without coming across as the heavyweight no neck in a tracksuit on the corner with the pitbull with spikey collar that feels the need to be confrontational at any and every opportunity.......

Dont understand how anyone could be scared of someone on the internet. :-/
Also dont understand the demand to ban someone you dont like.
My tuppenceworth,for what its worth,20 watt  so far doesnt "get" the spirit of OOF,but nor did I when I joined,I calmed down a bit after a while and he might too.I think he has got some thing s to learn,but he aint stupid.I hope that doesnt come across as patronising,its not meant that way,just an honest opinion.

I also believe that if he or anyone else  goes too far beyond what most of us find acceptable it will be dealt with.Anyone remember Stuart30 ? ;)

The fact that I dislike him is irelevant in this debate!

Whilst I don't want to get personal, KW recently gave me some advice with was very useful and productive :y
What I have noticed recently is a quieter forum for banter and a little more aggression in some postings.
I have had the 'This is a Car Forum' response whilst posting in Gen Chat, I just ignored it. I worry that things get so serious and personal that the forum will loose it's community spirit, which is increasingly likely given some of the recent threads and baiting of the Admins.  I am no sycophant,just enjoy the banter and the practical help when needed. :y

To be honest 20watt makes me laugh, although some of his choice words are not ones I would use on here, although I don't think I swear on here :-? I do at home and when with others that also swear, but have you noticed how you don't swear in the company of others that don't?
I find it easy to slip up whilst in conversation, but can't see how you can slip up whilst typing!! :-?

Basically if there was a forum guideline and if it was not adhered to, action was taken, there would be no issue.
I have to say that often I find myself thinking "WHAT ?!?!?" to a KW posting, but I've also  often thought "yep, fair point there" on others.
