Announcement: Bad Language

[Wraith]

Yes yes yes, thank you! It's one of my bug bears, and it's fair to say our standards have been slipping, just like SuB in real life I swear like a trooper, but when I'm online I watch my Ps & Qs just like I would around my nephews. I reckon we should have a "swear box" and all proceeds annually go to a charity of TTLs choice.

Thats quite a cool idea tbh

£1 Paypal payment to get a weeks ban lifted, seems fair to me.

Really? Having to pay for swearing?

 

[Dicehunter]

So I hear Mussolini, Pol pot, Stalin, Hitler, Kim Jong Un, Putin, Cameron and Murdoch are having a meeting, This topic should go nicely with their hatred towards peoples freedoms.......

Police state.

Would be a donation to charity - if you didnt want to pay it you would ride out your temp ban

Like a swear jar - its actually quite cool

 

[Wraith]

How is it a Police state? It's just simple manners and common sense, it's OK to swear amongst mates or close friends, but strangers and new comers don't want to hear (read) it.

The whole charity thing is all well and good, but this just screams "EA" to me

Its an idea and wouldnt be forced.......

Still, whats the point of a punishment if you can just pay your way past it? Even though its for charity, it still doesn't sound like a very good idea imo

I quite like the idea - especially as its for charity - if you dont like it you just run your punishment.

But we should break it up into mild, heavy, and extreme swearing for £5, £10, and £20 respectively! Sounds brilliant, doesn't it?

Would anyone mentioning the word Titan get the £20 fine.

Isn't this exactly what posting bail is in the US? you pay to get out?

If there are ever any limits on picture uploads or embeds I will leave the forums immediately. That would be counter productive for everyone.
