Is English your 2nd language?

If you scroll up two quotes you will see he edited his comment.

In his words, for the "switched on".

Are you learning how to read?

So why didn't you quote his unedited post?

No problems TSG....apology accepted.

Just stumbled across this topic, one of the more enjoyable reads it's fair to say

Swearing's a personal thing, for me I reckon the important component is intent. Ie, you place a bet on a wrong horse and some bloke at the pub laughs and calls you a silly c..., it's all shits and giggles.

I understand many other people don't cope with bad language whatsoever so they avoid the pubs as a rule. The pubs have to make a decision as to which crowd gets their priority to cater for - This site at some stage might have to do the same, I dunno?

Personally I reckon the vast majority of people on this site have been involved in sport so shouldn't be strangers to bad language - And I'd hate to see the site become characterless and sterile like most top flight footy players these days that aren't allowed to add colour onfield anymore.

Understand it's a tough one for admin.

So long as the drunken Friday or Saturday night posting is allowed, I couldn't give a **** what the swear filter does. It's not hard to work out what word is being the asterisks. ****.

I swear like you wouldn't f**kin believe. It is just the way I am. I can string a group of swear words together in a sentence and not one would be out of place. I personally don't mind a bit of swearing I am used to it all the time. But there is certain places I gotta watch my f**kin language so I do.

Just because a word is not in the swear filter, doesn't mean it's ok to use - either.

It's just a "first line of defense" to save checking so many posts.

true I was more seeing if it would work LOL. Edited it Diss.

I'd like filter to eliminate Americanisms like "defense" Diss.

I voted for staying as we are.
I'd rather not see an "anything goes" environment here, but I do swear sometimes myself.

I don't think I've ever used an F or C swear word on this site unless it was in a quote, and I rarely use them in everyday speech.
The F*** word may slip out sometimes when I'm very angry.

What I want to know is why haven't you c***s been banned now, like I was! Of course, the word I was referring to was clams.

Sometimes it is smoked......

"Bitch" - the correct term for a female dog used to be filtered at one time.
