Branners Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Hi folks, It's about that time of year again when I need to ask you all to keep an eye on your swearing on the forum. This is a public forum which is visible to many including children. We have some swearing filters in place but I still would like it to stop please. It seems to be more common place now so I'm hoping we can stop the degeneration in to a forum that doesn't even notice when swearing is in a thread. There is almost never a need for it so if you can cut it out please. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny g Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Maybe time to impose infractions on to frequent swearers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted May 20, 2010 Author Share Posted May 20, 2010 would rather not go back to that, but it may well be needed. I'm hoping the polite approach works.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny g Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 You find the language on the forum is directly proporitional to the price of the cars as a general rule - the better the member, the more expensive the car. I've watched the MR2 world go that way in the last 4-5 years ... sad times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOS Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 I agree - keep the swearing to a minimum, no matter how annoyed you get at my posts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil-NA Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 I have noticed my swearing has been on the increase recently. Sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopgunTT Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 I don't swear on here, No need for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraD06 Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Have to say that i for one hate it when swearing is used for no reason, when i'm at work and blokes put the F word between every other word, i just take a much lower opinion of them, sounds so common.

Havard Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 I do swear a lot but not in front of my children. When I post, I type it as I would have said it if someone was in front of me.... Therefore if I treat you all like children, I'll probably not swear at all in my posts...... H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attero Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 I think I've sworn once in all of my 470 posts and that wasn't agressive... I don't think that's bad going, but I'll abolish it completely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robzki Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Yeah, on a serious note. I've noticed I'm becoming more complacent on this. No idea why, I swear once in a blue moon in 'real' life. consider me spanked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
