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...

I think they make it clear. No personal insults, no swearing and no disguised swearing e.g using acronyms.

I’ve never actually read the rules but in my time on here I’ve read enough to know what they are.
If I see something wrong I don’t really care though.

Feelings hurt

See Aesopian, that's actually more offensive than Josh's acronym. That's playing the man not the ball.
That is such a demeaning and totally unnecessary comment typical of lefty luvvies who want to shout down an alternative point of view. Insulting, me instead of arguing the points I raised in my original post. In your first reply, you tried to shout me down by telling me to go away. That's my entire point - you would prefer that anyone with a different view should go away. For a moment there I thought this was an open forum. Sure there rules but as I posted earlier, that maybe they need to be reconsidered. A perfectly reasonable position that reasonable people would understand

It helps if you type complete sentences. I'm pretty good, but I'm not a mind reader.

By the way (can I use BTW?) The moving on line is the classic deflection tactic when the argument is lost. Cheers.

 

[Cultured_Bogan]

If you see a post that doesn't comply with forum rules you can always report it. If you've been picked up on disguised swearing before and you feel others are getting away with it (as Geo said, there's thousands of posts made every day and there's only a handful of mods, and we aren't going to be able to keep up with every post in every thread,) report it.

It actually helps us out.
