I've never noticed any thing to squawk about (that has passed the moderators anyway ) but I only 'selectively' pick threads to read.


No idea where this board is hosted but although the USA has freedom of speech, THIS IS NOT A DEMOCRACY. The owner of the website says what goes and what stays on there property, which is thankfully what looks like a good community.


When I post, I might let some thing slip but I generally remember:


0/ Can say it in front of women
1/ Can say it in front of young children
2/ Can say it in a Disney Movie
4/ Deescalate the tone of profanity (e.g. s/s<self-edited>t/crap/) where appropriate.


I have several bones with "Gentleman" written on them and as part of my clan. I'm used to my actions and words reflecting upon my teams honourable reputation.

I've always expected others to respect the local rules, what ever they may be. And if they say dun't cuss a blue streak, stop making like a drunken sailer and a vodka'd up marine on shore leave !
