Please people, please stop using questionable language on the board. Some people are offended by what you say so lets keep it clean. Thank You - I suppose you are going to tell me if I don't like it, go somewhere else - well I just might do that.:angry:

    hmmm..... have you never heard offensive language in your life? Skip the topics that seem to go that way, and respond to the topics that stay inoffensive.

    Words are just words, they really can't hurt you. If you don't like certain language maybe you should stay away from the boards, as we are all adults here.

    Nice to see I am not alone, but not as brave as you in sticking my head above the parapet

    I have deleted "friends" and blocked posters who can only post using expletives, no need for it IMO

    I also note we are much same age, possibly a generational thing? However that is not a reason we should tolerate such language

    I guess I look at it this way, If it offends you, ignore it. It may offend someone else that you're telling them to not do it. I understand that some people don't care for it, but seriously, if you watch television, it's there, do you contact the television stations and tell them the same thing or do you just change the channel?

    Dear OP. Please take this posters advice. I mean not the part about "not tolerating such language" because the idea that the way you were raised means you somehow have a right to tell the rest of us what words we can and cannot say is ridiculous.

    But by all means. Block and delete. This is how adults on the internet deal with things they don't like.

    Well I mean. Some adults. The rest of us are going to post hilarious GIFs. Wait for it. Its coming.

    Sometimes it is necessary... saying "aw, pussiefeathers" doesn't get the same point across.

    ^ This.


    I'm actually irritated that the board censors language because I'm all for profanity.

    I certainly have, and used it. I spent over 10 years in the Royal Navy, but this is not, nor should not be, a messdeck on a frigate

    Time & a place for everything

    Hitting your thumb with a hammer may be reason to swear, sitting typing at a keyboard is not

    Casual swearing is not adult, it is childish

    How sad. Can't come to the boards for fitness or diet help because all the 'adults' can't be civil.

    Not exactly sure what language you mean, as all curse words are filtered out by MFP.

    Telling me not to use "profanity", just makes me want to do it more. :devil:

    Words only have power if you allow them to. Just because certain words hurt your "virgin ears", doesn't give you the right to demand that others not use those words. We're all adults here.
