Danger-Mouse Posted January 27, 2020 Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 Can we have a section where we can have a little more freedom of posting. I quite often see videos I'd love to post but then the presenter drops an F-bomb right at the end and suddenly it's unshareable. Not suggesting the rules should change for the entire forum. Just one section where viewers are warned it may contain swearing and proceed at their own risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henry d Posted January 27, 2020 Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 Why? Can we have a racist section and say ***** occasionally? A theology section, kick around some kenosis? If you want that why not go elsewhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velocette Posted January 27, 2020 Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 The race card is out early on this one,,,with a hint of theological persecution too,,,quite a pathetic way of shutting down a discussion which didn't mention either but it fills the banned topics criteria exactly.

I'm up for that, though you're obviously more intelligent than me as I had to Google 'kenosis' We could also have a subforum where people ask a reasonable and legitimate question and get rudely shot down in flames? 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, you either accepted the rules of the forum when you joined or as they were disseminated, or you go elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do the rules not state that offensive language is not to be used, even if it is starred out? And the use of deliberate starred out language is a breach of the rules? I'm away to argue about the existence of God on Mumsnet now 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, what happens when someone wants to discuss say (human) scatology (yeah we've had someone post photos of their bowel movements before)....? 1 minute ago, stuartyboy said: I'm away to argue about the existence of God on Mumsnet now 👍 Try ship of fools, good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zapp Posted January 27, 2020 Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 This is best put to the site owner (Teal) by private message as it's his call but when it has been suggested in the past there haven't been compelling arguments as to why to remove it. Out your case to him and see whathe thinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
