  2. language used on this forum should reflect the real world use of words

    is a particular members language is a problem, then the member is the problem rather than the language

  9. Well when you live with an ex soldier you get used to hearing swearing!!!! I don't Think that anyone on this forum abuses the swearing dictionary so dont think there is a need for filtering.........

  16. Hiya Pixie, hope you don`t mind, figured that`s what you really meant :upyeah:
    Agreed,`tis a nice picture you have. Perhaps Rob could let you have a bigger avatar, its hurting my eyes trying to read whats on it, honest! :wink:

    As for the swearing. I`m pretty much ok with anything, as long as its not used to insult anyone personally on a forum, now face to face is a different matter.

    Funny thing about swearing for me, at work it can be every other word but at home, never, no matter what.

  17. Just re-read one of the treads I contributed too where I swore ... I guess I expected an automatic swear filter to kick in rather than I type in xxxx or xxxxx manually :)

    At the end of the day you can walk past a kids playground and hear new swear words but I'd lean towards not letting totally gratuitous swearing dominate, hey a swear word is supposed to be for special occasions when you are angry or annoyed, if you use it all the time it loses its meaning ... heh.

  18. It's been 4-1 in favour of no filter for some days now, so it seems that we are all responsible adults (officer).
    Job done. Sanity prevails.

  19. Thank god!

    To be honest even when people dont see eye to eye and go for it, who cares? The overall tone and content is excellent and thats what really counts.
