    Default Thats Right Im Protesting on an Internet Fourm.

    I recently posted a link in the backroom which was political in nature and had some mature themes. I was led to beleive this was what the backroom was for. Yet I get a warning. I dont understand.
    There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    Have you read the foul language thread sticked at the top of the backroom forum?

    This does definitely include the use of profanities to emphasize e.g., the slander of groups or ad hominem at patrons, but it also includes the "non-directed" use of profanities to express e.g., anger or surprise.
    In addition I would like to point out that the use of "*" to partly disguise profanities is not considered to be a valid alternative within the forum rules (same goes for quoting another patron's outburst).
    Linking to something that has swearing is not a viable alternative.

    Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.

    If it is that home movie about he Iraq invasion, I recall there was very little swearing in it- and that other, unwarned posts have linked to stuff with swearing.

    In less I totally missed it the link itself didn't lead to swearing. The fact that you had to dig in the site to find the offending words means nothing. Why don't you just ban linking to YouTube for God's sake?

    Edit: Sorry, did I just swear?

    Is the word Taff going to be considered a "colourful swear word"? I am asking before I use it, because I don't want another warning. Let me tell you though, it isn't. It is a word that means "thief". It came from the game Thief, and is not profanity.

    It's also a racially abusive word for a Welsh person.

    That's kewl, I didn't know that. Do you know its origins?
