Guys, can we cut down on the swearing? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

TJ · 04-05-2002, 12:17 AM

I'm seeing the trend of more and more people (even people who I would not expect it from) swearing all the time on the boards, and I don't like it. It's not cool... I know the words are bleeped out, but that doesn't make it any better for you to use them.

Anybody that is going to continually use these words will be permanently banned from the boards. Let's all have fun but cut way down on the use of these words. Thank you.

I've used some TJ, actually a ton lol. I'll try to cut back sorry about it.

I myself am a young republican man of christian principles and I
do not like the use of foul, profane or abusive language.

I didn't even realize we HAD a swearing problem here!

I don't think this site is really bad, profanity-wise. I've seen a lot worse.

ClassicComedyFan2 · 04-05-2002, 08:17 AM

I may not be a republican, but I haven't cursed in years.

consentida · 04-05-2002, 12:40 PM

i havent said any of these words on the board so u have no problem here TJ

Chocoholic · 04-05-2002, 02:49 PM

I must be ooking at the wong threads because I've never seen any swear words here. What words are you talking about, TJ?

Mossopp · 04-05-2002, 02:57 PM

I've hung around quite a few message boards in my time and compared to them this is the cleanest board, language-wise, I've ever been on. I do see your point T.J. - there is no need for profanity and I apologise cos I know I've been using quite a few swear-words, esp. when I get angry. I'll make a concious effort not to do that from now on.

DarleneIllyria · 04-05-2002, 03:14 PM

I'll try to cut down too. I don't curse as I much as I used too, but I'll try to cut down too.
