Title: Guideline Reminder - Swearing
Post by: Kizzie on May 09, 2018, 06:04:47 PM
Hi Folks - Just a reminder that we ask members to avoid swearing here because it can be quite triggering for some members.  Also, it catches on we've found which is another reason we discourage it. 

Here's the guideline:   

Swearing - If you wish to express anger via swearing, please do so sparingly and use a symbol mash (e.g., %^&$) rather than the full word or  a mix of letters and symbols (e.g. "f**k" - the mind tends to fill in the word in the case of a mix of letters and symbols).  Please note that a filter is in place which screens out most swear words with an "*". 

Posts which do not comply with this guideline will be edited or removed. 


Tks everyone!
