    Hi,
    Am I alone in thinking that swearing should be allowed on the boards? Seeing's how most of us are adults, I'm just wondering where's the harm?

    why?
    what difference does it make?


    This comes up about once a month on feedback.
    And the end result is always the same.
    200 posts and 10 pages down the line after 50+ muppets argue their case, an admin/smod will say no and lock the thread.

    have fun

    that could be taken as bad language and slander (just because you don't agree with someone doesn't make them muppets)

    I've said before boards should have another forum, where you need a CC to verify your age to get in and anything goes bar illegal activities

    That sounds pointless. Can you not go without swearing? :rolleyes:

    I don't mean just for swearing, just a forum where you can post what you want(any topic) and threads will never be locked/deleted unless they have illegal content i.e. torrents,drugs etc
    Also you can't get banned for flaming other members in there ;)


    We have a David Hasselhoff forum why not a "Crazy" forum :D
