Frock off
Its hot
I remember when i went with a friend to pick up his imported car at the docks. Apperently certian colorful adjectives and adverbs are a necessary part of the lingo down at the docks.
No need for it here. I always felt the term coffee lounge implied an office coffee lounge conduct.
Stop acting like maggots you bucking fastards. Swearing isn't big and it's not clever. Don't do it.
for Peters sake children, the thread wasn't an invitation to show clever you can be all be, it was a polite request not to do it!
There's a whole lot of deep thought going on for what is a pretty simple concept: don't swear.
You know when a child says a naughty word and you tell them not to say it again?
(some of you might have to imagine that you're grown ups in this example :))
And you know how once they know it is a naughty word, they either keep saying it, or saying other words really close to it so that you can't quite get them for it?
Well, that's the way people are behaving in this thread.
<edit>And seeing chrisvo69er's post actually confirms what I thought about him from the start - but hey, I forget. This is a big joke, isn't it.
Silly of me - it is me who is wrong :rolleyes: </edit>

The only thing being (and clearly some of them haven't quite understood the message) that won't be tolerated either so I'd hope they're not too disappointed when they find themselves banned!Quote:

Correct… I was just bringing to attention the futility of the request. Its not big its not clever… but it can bring a smileQuote:

Some people just won't learn Jamble.
Everyone has been warned about it and if they still feel the need to behave in the same way then they have to deal with the consequences.
I hope that one day people will realise that if you give an imbecile a razor blade to play with he is liable to cut himself and those around him.Quote:

It is becoming patently obvious that any thread involving a grown up subject cannot be managed by certain people on this board - so trying to 'raise a smile' just fans the flames.
As long as this thread stays open, more people are going to test the moderators to the limit.
Johnie,
Humble request: please consider closing this thread now and state that the no-swearing policy in place as of closure.
The longer this goes on, the more juveniles will vent their spleens.
The mod has himself to blame! And if I troll through the past posts I bet I can find that most of us and even the mods are criminals of this type of banter..so stop your superiority spin
I'm really quite disappointed that this thread has degenerated so much.
Especially after all the talk of self-moderation, and how there was going to be some kind of a "new start" on FK.
Anyone remember why the mod list has changed so dramatically? Or is your memory so short that you can't remember the reason for this thread, let alone the topics for discussion yesterday or the day before.
Someone please close this.
Agreed. This is getting a bit rediculous.
"Poopie! Teehehe!"
"Caca! Hahaha!"
Like a playground in here. Or worse yet, an AOL chatroom.
No one is to blame, yes I'm sure most of us have done it in the past. The fairly simple concept of this thread was to ask everyone to stop doing it now, not show their mind blowing skills at throwing tantrums and making clever little word plays.Quote:

chrisvo69er, care to leave before you're inevitably banned?
thread closed, whats the point!?
I can see more 'valued' members or mods leaving for other boards and quite frankly, who can blame them?
