All I said was 'I'm gone'
Strange
But some of the topics of conversation on plodders and FFF, I wouldn't let my children read it. There's not much we don't know about some peoples marital problems etc
< actually i was fairly cazzed as i cut'n paste which FB cut'n pasted >
(warning - be careful when cut and pasting in case the context has been changed by me)
We don't have any automatic censoring, nor do we have anything like a 'you must talk about running' policy. One of the nice things about the forum is that people tend to know what to expect in different folders. So if you go into URFRC Monday Jokes, you're probably not going to see much family content (tho even we have some limits).
What was slightly difficult about Itfar's splendid name was that it was so public. Going back to the pub analogy, it would be like your landlord being fine with occasional blue jokes in the corner but not with you coming into the pub with cussin' on your t-shirt.
One of the reasons we like letting the forums settle into their own folders-styles and their own self-moderation is that more often than not, once we get involved, someone gets offended, and probably comes back twice as angry.
And it takes up three times as much of our time and leaves a nasty taste.
But we won't accept personal attacks on forum members, and we will read (and generally follow up) all moderation alerts (which thankfully amount to one or two a week out of about 20,000 new messages).
So Brunswick, I am going to caz your ealier angry post, and then can we call a truce?
It wasn't me who was doing the earlier censoring, but if you think I (or we) are exercising an unfair divine right, try going into your pub and calling your landlord what you called us.
It's not so very different - except that unlike a pub, we don't even expect you to pay us for being here.
Sean, RW
I i'm the first to admit i swear but i have never done it in front of mine or anybody else's children .My daughter oftern reads this site with me ,as i post from home so i have to be aware of what is put on here by others.Sometimes she asks what a certain word means, i explian its a swear word and that it normally means the person can't explain them selves properly due to their lack of basic english.Swearing in anger is slightly different ,but swearing for the sake of it is just sad.
Don't worry I know which running club you are member of.
A pub - very good analogy.
Can I have a pint please Sean ?
Wuss, spending all day in the library when you could be in the pub with us.
If I promise to behave, can I come the pub with you guys please ?
'Have you got fly fishing by J R Hartley ?'
Is that it on that bottom shelf behind you ?
