What's OK/Not OK?

[4252]

I was just looking at the thread where members have submitted photos, and was remarking to myself how remarkably attractive looking the female members here are. I remarked.

But that's not why I'm writing this. I noticed that some of the members have the word Banned on their posts, and am wondering what the ground rules here are. I looked around and didn't see any Posting Suggestions, such as they have on TalkBlade for example (no discussions about switchblade importation or customs regulations, certain few words are frowned on, and they don't like people who shout). Before I end up saying something stupid and getting my lopsided butt kicked out of here, are there any do's and don'ts I should observe?

I'm opinionated, somewhat foul-mouthed, and verbose, no two ways about it, but can exhibit reasonable self control if I know the parameters.

well i think we need to get some sort of "experiment" underway to see what the guidlines for language are.

**fuck fuck shit fuck**

Ok now we just wait...

?!

[The C]

Wow this is a pretty complicated call i think.

I don't think I even know the rules, so i should.
But i do believe thier is a rules sticky somewhere.

Hmmm.... we have a mystery on our hands here...

[del...]

[The C]

Mystery solved.

hahahehe :)

[RESiNATE]

lmao@'remark' over-usage...hehe, you spoilt my retort, dude :D

Yups, I'm opinionated and all the stuff you said, 4252.
Like Del said, just have respect.
There's nothing wrong with having an opinion, and I think everyone loves a passionate debate, but it's better to agree to disagree, than to say something hurtful and nasty.
If we don't debate, then we learn nothing - but we all got our ideas, init:D

And don't forget, this is a public forum...I guess there are laws that apply (unless 'membership forums' are not considered 'public domain')....

At the end of the day, if you wouldn't want your Granny to be spoken to like that, then don't say it...I guess :)

Hey I was repremanded for the use of the c@#t word, which I was using to make a point, I didn't bother to test the limits on it though. I won't mind if you give it a go but others might. Hey Res? :p

[RESiNATE]

Hey Mrs P...nice avatar..where'd ya get it?:rolleyes: *sniggers behind hand*
Yeah, the 'C' word is a nasty word...but even that can be used in certain contexts...ie, like to describe the UK Government :D

Sometimes, swearing can make something funny even funnier lol

I lost my train of thought then, cos I was admiring your avatar, Mrs P....lol..I am quite chuffed :D

[ermitonto]

Yeah, I don't think they care too much about swearing on here, as long as you don't make vicious attacks on your fellow threadmates.

You forgot Bastard and Wanker(!!!) my personal favourite ;) :p

It's people who come on with the sole intention of pissing people off and starting trouble that there's an objection to. And also a few folks who we fear would pose a threat to the members safety (there's always going to be the odd pervert looking for pastures new ) :mad:

[RESiNATE]

Whoa...duuuuude...'Bar**** Str******', is taking things a bit far, isn't it!:eek:
