No-one can edit their post here without the usual footnote. Nedim wrote the post that way in the first place. Of course, you already know that, but had to get the dig in anyway...

Look, I, and I think a fair number of the membership have used the occasional WTF, sh*t, bullsh*t, PITA, POS and , I'm sad to say, I've seen much of this written in plain English too. I don't recall any furor about it at the time, certainly no forum uprising. It's pretty obvious that this fails to offend much of the membership, Rikki (and our few other female membership) included. Or, at least, it fails to offend enough to warrant a rant..

You see, the whole point of the 'cop on the corner' is supposed to be his impartiality. If he wants to police this, he has to police it ALL. Or he simply comes off like someone with an axe to grind on one member. I certainly haven't seen that anywhere here. Where were you? Where was mc? Too busy?

How many times do I have to say it...? WE ALREADY GOT A MODERATOR. Why don't we simply leave it in the hands of the person RUNNING THIS PLACE to decide what is and isn't appropriate..? (last I checked, it was neither of you)

If you want a forum with squeaky clean language, start your own...
