Swear

[hawkeye18]

It is in my firm belief that if people cannot handle the vulgarities experienced in the course of modern speech, they should feel it upon themselves to vacate the area. Nobody is forcing them to stay there, and they (anti-swearing people) could be much more effective and much less disruptive by simply leaving than by sitting there and complaining about it all the time. When somebody proves to me that somebody is indeed holding a gun to their head and forcing them to endure the word 'fuck', I will change my opinion. But until that fateful day arrives, I simply say, "Leave! And do not come back."

I am not by this post saying that I am supporting the excessive use of vulgarities, and nor am I saying that people who don't like it don't have a valid argument; modern discourse is quite without the need of obscenities. I am, however, saying that there are many better ways to deal with it. Perhaps asking blatant offenders to quit, and failing that, having them kicked/banned? Simply leaving the chat room? With all due respect, if the swearing is so bad that you have to leave, there is nothing in the room that you would miss.

I can't see why we cannot communicate without swearing. That's being mature.

Swearing is a form of expression.
It is over used sometimes,but to edit is is totaly the opposite of what the Net has meant to me over the years.

Again I see uptight control freaks all over that can't live with other people's
eccentricities and discretions.
Here on the Net it's cool to say what you feel, We can all discuss it and rag on each other and be all pissed off and five minutes later joining together to overthrow the evil Ketchup haters......LOL

That's what being mature is

lol, this thread is initially stupid but I've learnt alot. Curley is a man! , doesn't effect me but your appearance is misleading.

"the avatar man" is yoda?, hey.
I was wondering were it went (he,she, you can't be sure anymore), good to know your still here

As for the swearing on the topic, I think it's childish to edit it out (like kids saying "oh, you said the f word). Concern is only needed if the swearing is at someone or to cause offense.

oh, and for the people who have no reply to "stop swearing" try:

"Want me to tone it down?, suck my fucking dick you faggot you happy now?"

or

"you wan't me to watch my mouth?, how?, take my fucking eyeballs out and turn 'em around?"

It's qouted, so I never said that

Have an idea, who's gonna count the swear/curse words...

we have to define a blacklist,

the controller will count every curse/swear word he sees, and in december 2003 you have to pay up a dollar/euro for every cursed word you wrote.... Think we have an idea for paying the server then to....


Who wanna be the controller and which words do we need to put on the list... ? B)
