Language is always a tough issue when it has to be determined if offensive, trollish etc. posts have been made.
First purpose for this thread is to give examples of first what will pass the ToS test. We all can have an opinion The mods have had a 5 -2 vote on an issue or 6-1 before. Sometimes it isn't crystal clear.
The second purpose is to give examples of what meets the expected decorum if you are considered a member of good standing. We won't all agree with each other.
Here are the expected rules:
1. Don't use real members as examples. That can get us off the thread topic in a heart beat.
2. Try to keep emotions out of it. State your position and then feel free to disagree with what the other person said, not with the other person.
Agian that is a goal of mine for this thread.
My examples:
OK:
Fuck you Timmy, if you think you can seduce Tom before I do. LOL.:biggrin1:
or
Not OK:
Fuck you Timmy, you say you have a dick, but what you have is a slimmy cunt. You are a piss off bastard that should have been banned the day you joined.
I recommend the use of LOL and :biggrin1: and any other ways to show when it is teasing, joking etc We can't see your face or hear your voice to know that you don't really mean the words you say. A signal if possible would help all of us understand the real meaning of the post tremendously.
Your thoughts and comments:
No I am not going to ban Freddie53 because he used the words slimmy cunt.:biggrin1::biggrin1::biggrin1:
