    Default language

    just curious what the deal is on the language used on these forums.
    I have read the faq and noticed a scan goes over the words periodically and replaces them with asterisks but how often is this done?
    just concerned about some of the language i see in the non car discussion area 'tis all.

    The Admin sets the level of alert for that.... I'm unsure what is is but can look into it.

    that being said the language and written word are a great deal better now than on the old forums.

    Hi,

    Yes, much better language here than on the old forums. But Rona says f*** in a lot of his posts. He's a rude young man, me thinks.

    Seriously if you don't like the language you can use Neg rep on them, this is part of the idea of having it.

    As long as you give Bad/Poor language as a reason people will get the Idea. I would advise that you rep the people who regularly use bad language in threads not just the one off's (unless it is really un cool)

    Well, you're the resident psych. Any conclusions? Is there a remote possibility of help?

    Hi,

    Well, aaaaaaaaaright Rona-babes. But I'll be keeping an old but watchful eye out and if you become unruly I may have to give you a rep-slap. And, no inane retalitary slaps from you - consider it your "swear jar"

    PS: Maybe Draven can help you determine why you're an angry little man? I hear he's good with animals and children (although he doesn't seem to score so well on the female relationship side) and I'd like to hear his theory.

    I could throw a few educated guesses out there right here and now, but these things shouldn't be aired in a public forum (and it would be pretty much completely unethical to do so)

    On the plus side, I have a professional obligation *not* to engage in therapy with rona, so all's not bad
    (joking, for parts of it)

    7M = p00; therefore you've been smelling too much p00 lately, eh?
