Swearing...

[MSB]

I really don't mind swearing that much. I think most of the people on this forum would not take offence to it. I can honestly say i couldn't care less about swearing even if they are directed at me. If its used in moderation i have no trouble with it. I can understand coming down on constant swearing and the use of certain words but for the majority i'm not that bothered

And that's from an ASSISTANT MODERATOR.

So?

Being an assistant mod doesn't mean he can't have a personal opinion, does it?

Good point.

We are members rather than the staff moderating The Org. It's not like we are gathering at a castle every Thursday and alter the things the way we wish and enjoy ourselves in the harem later on. We are members.

Ok I should confess that at least we wished for such a gathering but, you know, we needed to be as rich as Tom Cruise to rent a castle, what's more I'd prefer conquering the world if I were that rich.

Swearing is a weak mind's attempt to express itself forcibly.

Whats your point? My Opinion is my own business. It doesn't effect my duties as an AM does it?

It does slightly. It basically means that if somebody was to start swearing in one of your forums you would be more relaxed on the matter and perhaps just tell the individual to stop rather than warning them like another moderator would do should they find swearing on their forums. What you believe goes against the forum rules. Moderators/Assistant Moderators should believe in the rules. If they don't then what example does it set to members?

Who are you to lecture me about this forum? You have been here for six months and i have been around here for nearly four years. If you actually come along to the forum i moderate there is bugger all replies, a few posts a day at most so i don't really get the chance to warn anyone. If someone used consistent bad language i would tell them to stop.

Furthermore, in real life everyone uses bad language. I come from an area and home where swearing isn't frowned upon or really cared about but that doesn't effect me in anyway. On the forums as well by character is fine and i don't have problems with anyone or swear at them, anyone who knows me on here can back me up there.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, join date ,post count, choice of avatar or choice of camel doesn't matter.

or choice of camel doesn't matter.

What is it you like about camels? If you love camels you would love the mental maths tests that the maths department devises for pupils. I believe they involve a man called Ahab and his haulage firm run by: camels!

Can't agree more with what has already been said :

1. Swearing is not necessary,2. it does not improve discussions 3. and does not help to create a construcive atmosphere. 4.If you don't like the rules, go somewhere else.
