I need to clarify to EVERYONE (see, I'm not singling out anyone here) that I can't read EVERY forum and Look at EVERY post so the only way I find out if something is potentially offensive is by someone alerting me to it.
I don't want to be a moderator and I am not the leader of this board and I never want to be.
JRF: I'm not trying to dictate policy over word usage here. As I wrote before, I'm just expressing one opinion, MY OPINION, and I'm not into censorship and I'm not into limiting what people have to say. No one here has to accept what I have to say (but I know at least one Flyertalker who stands by me.)
It's like what PremEx said best...
and I quote..
"The main reason I try to avoid slang here is because of consideration to others. Unlike when talking to friends or individuals, I have no idea who might be reading this forum, and therefore try to be more careful and selective in the way I write so as not to offend some who might find some words objectionable."
Well said PremEx.
I think that's what we should keep in mind when posting. It's an international forum. I try NOT to offend anyone on this board.
All I want is a clean and relatively flame free board. But more and more I'm feeling like my best buddy wanderlust: the board is rapidly becoming NOT the place for me.
FYI to PUNKI: there are some GIRLS who also have the toilet talk too. I went to school with some of them.
