I'll admit that for an adult to say it, I wouldn't personally consider it foul language, but it's also not something I'd want a five year old to say.

I think that it's up to the parent(s) to determine what their child should or should not be saying...

i agree with this but i would assume that we are al adults or over the age of about 15 which i would consider it to be an acceptable word for use  our moderaters feel that this isn't
i hope i have your surrport

When it comes to the forums, the moderators are the ones whom I support fully.  They've got a very difficult job to do, and they're not getting paid a cent to do it.

If this is an issue of you v. mods, I'm going to have to be behind the mods.

They're here to make this a place we can all enjoy.  I don't necessarily agree with all their decisions, but they are the ones who have been charged with that responsibility, and I'll respect them for that alone.

There is no control as to who may view this
site, it is our place to set Flight Simming above
the 'games' that parents may not wish their
children to partake of!!!
The word itself is not offensive, but it opens the
door to others!!

This thread seems to be turning into a personal
attack on the moderators!
calciumcowpat, this is not a wise road to take!!
With age comes wisdom!
Think about the path you walk my friend!!!

I think he's trying to make it one, and it's not working.

Anyone who has been here a while will agree that the moderators are very giving, and they don't just use their "power" to be a**holes...they use it very responsibly and should be commended for it.

And for those who think they're capable of being a mod, I agree with Brad...stick around, pay your dues, and see if you're chosen as one when the current mods leave.

Swearing doesn't offend me (I worked on the shop floor for years) but I prefer not to see it in the forum. There's such a thing as standards. I like to think I can express myself adequately without resorting to swear words, even the milder ones. ::)

Dittos Hagar.

As a Marine, I heard every word under the sun, and on very rare occasions, I'll use them.  But for the most part, my mouth is very clean, and I prefer to keep it that way.

An intelligent person needs not curse to get their point across.  In fact, an intelligent person will get said point across without foul language...

Calciumcowpat, if you're trying to start something here with the mods, I'd suggest you think again.  You may think you can do whatever you want, but I assure you, the mods here take their task very seriously, and trying to cause trouble here isn't something that they have historically supported...

We have many members that are very young and
yet show great wisdom, I was impressed when I
learned Asrogeek was 14 years old!! He is a man
of wisdom!! And my friend!!

and must play by their rules, or go home!!
I'm not being rude, just honest!!!

Astro is a perfect example....I thought the same thing when I learned his age.

And Brad, I LOVE that expression...that one is going to be used VERY often in my real world life.  lol

Thanks for that little gem!

With people like Ozzy Osborne out there, swear words will probably merge into our normal f%$#ing conversation in the next 20 years. Why the f@%$ would people get offended by something as simple as a word? Too many god d%$* sensitive people out there I guess. To thoes people, I say kiss my a$$.
