doing their job and holding standards here,

Then you would have resigned years ago

Do you have a problem with me specifically?

 

[Masterton]

I just don't get it. I swear like a sailor in the drunk tank IRL, but I've never managed to get a warning here because I don't do it here, anymore than I would to someone at work.

I reckon the rules are pretty clear here so you either choose to follow them, or don't and then cop the outcome. There are plenty of other sites to share your opinion in a more colourful way if you prefer that style.

Some here are missing the point.

Its about making this place fun, safe and free of litigation.

Its Easy - Feel free to agree or not, be articulate or not, just dont swear, dont go overboard and dont abuse someone via keyboard.

Totally agree with all that, but my question is when did the two letters that Josh used together become a reason for deleting posts? I’ve seen it used freely on here by many people (myself included) for years without penalty, now suddenly it’s become unacceptable? It’s hardly worth deleting a post for it. Expletive tirades, out and out swearing & abuse of other forum members for sure, but a couple of letters together in a sentence to express a point, really? It’s a bit precious don’t you think?

they have been lax in policing it and now we know they want it to go back to it's usually high standard then we have to follow

I have seen some use the letters B and S and I just shrug my shoulders and ignored it, but that doesn't mean it is right - it is disguised swearing

instead of the letters B and S then he could've just said "that's crap"?


Well it’s sure been a long time without it being policed.

Fair enough, it’s just the inconsistency of it all that gets me. You spend time and effort trying to write a post then suddenly it’s deleted and you don’t really know why because you haven’t written anything in it that you haven’t used before. Then you can’t be bothered writing it all again, so there goes your who!e point and engagement with the conversation in the thread. Maybe someone can put up a more detailed list of what is not acceptable so we all know where we stand a bit more clearly?

But as Geo said ...can you imagine having trying to read every post 24/7

Some get missed ....we are all human

In the words of Toovey.....

there must be an investigation...

I bet Geos fingers got sore sorting through the posts that werent acceptable...

Too busy admiring my brilliant posts

Hap Geo said to me once...TT what do you call a mosquito that flew into Happys ear ??

I said I dont know ...

Geo said its a space invader..hahaha

Never been to Gladstone then ...mozzies don't fit in your ear ..2 hop either side and carry you off

They're not mozzies....they are fairies carrying you off.

Rules are outdated and when you have admin breaching his own rules then it's not surprising people get irked when typing two letters

What exactly are you referring to Ink?

 

[innsaneink]

Kuls "your on another planet" thread could be classed as trolling which I'd say is against the rules
The thread doesn't bother me. But the rules it seems for some and not for others does

@facepalmer did you change your name for a reason mate ...your were a liked poster .....

Tbh I forgot my password and it was attached to an old email and it was easier to make a new one to randomly comment one day lol.

 

[facepalmer]

Also I had mail once and didn't want to out who I was when I shared it haha.

 

[facepalmer]

No swearing is one thing, sure don't want this forum turning into the kennel, but who does disguised swearing hurt? Who decides the rules? Was there a vote? The forum is created for its users. Should we poll for all users to vote on when determining such rules?

Otherwise what's to stop the forum turning into one of those Facebook groups where power hungry mods boot out anyone for anything they don't like.

I know mods are volunteers and I'm not having a go at them at all, just the systems in place and how we can possibly improve them

Disguised swearing has been a breach of forum rules for years. It's not hard not to swear on here. It's one of the standards we uphold and if you don't type or abbreviate nasty words you won't have a problem. It really is that simple.

Haha sorry man but it really is hard not to swear.
