Warnings for Cussing

[Emo Kid]

i dont warn members for cussing. im just curious to see how many people do and dont.

[Artemis]

Some minor swearing no, but excessive and unnecessary language, I do. Though I haven't yet, everyone's being good.

[yilduz]

i dont... because i dont mind mild swearing if it isnt aimed at someone or isnt excessive...
the second someone does either of those two things is when i'd be on their butt...

>_>

for those that dont kno. im asking if you warn members for any swearing, whether its mild or the worst word ever. i never warn for cussing.

if you only warn if its aimed at someone, you can still say you dont warn for cussing

But if you sometimes do it for the same reason (swearing) then you can put yes, right?

i voted no.

i dont warn for cussing... if its aimed at someone or is excessive, that causes problems, breaks other rules, etc...
i think have bad words is stupid... they're just words...

If it happens more then once they will be warned and if it continues they will be issued a warning.

if u warn for persistant cussing, then you have to chose yes

[real_decimic]

I don't warn members for minor swearing if not used excessively. But for excessive use or more severe words or using words to offend people will result from a 2 week ban to a perm ban.

eh i dont there just words >__<

I do here simply because if it were to get started, it would get out of hand immediately

On my forum my members can sware if they want to however if it is aimed at someone, they will immediately be issued a warning or if that same member did it again. he/she would be on probation for a set amount of days/weeks. If continued a 3rd time, he/she would be banned FOREVER!!!

That's how strict I am on my forum. Any other offence will just warrant a reminder notice to fix up the problem

Agreed. It's not necessarily the words themselves, but how they're used and directed at people. Allowing them beyond some minor stuff usually leads to flame wars because people assume that because they can use foul language they can target others with it.

Exactly. Besides, in a public place like this is, there is no need for it as some people get offended. In real life I use a lot of foul language, but it bothers me when I hear some kid in Wal-Mart saying "F" this and "F" that loudly so everyone hears it. It's rude and offensive
