Posted by Ava Blu on 03/26/12 at 08:16 PM It's my opinion that it is considered profanity. Via this link: http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Profanity it is considered profanity by the general public. As a Moderator, I uphold, and abide by, the terms and conditions set forth by Gavin. If you are referring to the messages I sent you, the second was because you had logged on quite often after the first message and not edited your post. Profanity has gotten members terminated in the past. I may not agree with everything in the terms and conditions, but I abide by them. |

Posted by Clara Mae Gregory on 03/27/12 at 10:16 AM What if you were making a comment about losing your mind and said " I was freaking out as the tornado hit".....used in context, wouldn't it be permissable? or not? |

Posted by Jim Benz on 03/28/12 at 12:56 AM Damn, that really sucks. But I wonder what happens when we can't freaking edit what we write? |

Posted by Ava Blu on 03/28/12 at 03:00 PM Clara, that context would be fine.
Jim, if a person can't edit it, they can message a moderator to let them know. We are able to delete forum posts, but we give the member the opportunity to edit rather than delete their entire forum post. |

Posted by Jim Benz on 03/28/12 at 10:56 PM Okay, fine. But if we quote Lady MacBeth's "out damned spot" monologue in a forum, will we be prodded to edit our quote for the sake of tender sensibilities? And, if not, why not? Frankly, I think I'd stick to George Carlin's list of unmentionable words and let other's slide. Because seriously, who gives a damn about a word like "damn" anyway? |
