Actually Tom has stopped swearing in his latest videos...
Announcement: Bad Language
- Thread starter SPS
- Start date
To be honest this is true, if a more professional look is what we're aiming for then the owner himself needs to stop it. Saying that, I do feel we could bring the swearing back a bit, I do it, whilst I mean no harm by it I guess its offensive to some.
But I don't want to go "Sh**" in a thread and forget about this at the time and then I get a PM or a ban. Mistakes happen.

Mods say don't swear, mod swears. Makes sense...
So I can't post images now either?
Please don't. It smacks of 12 year old kid at Linus'

Nice to see this, it was getting a bit mad at times.

Maybe that's the point, I'm sure swearing wasn't allowed on the forums in the past, correct me if I'm wrong.
Time to have a change as the swearing is getting a little stupid. I think Tom has already noticed and is already correcting himself.

It means avoid it, if people post the occasional "shit" then we're not going to prosecute you but we will make you aware of these new rules. If you carry on then we'll have to take more action.

There's a difference between swearing outright at someone, and calling something what it is.

You were complaining because I said 'shitposting'. I explained that it's just calling it what it is.
I don't think there's anything that isn't clear

Yes, and I'm not accusing Shaun of doing that
It's more for clarification as it used to be very strict in the forums, despite Tom's language in videos, it got slacked off a bit and regular posters started cursing a lot more, warnings were sent, and ignored so.. the belt has been re-tightened and the rules clarified to make it easier for the mods to enforce. The rules were slightly more 'wooly' before meaning it was hard to really enforce for the mods. This, should no longer be the case.

Ah alright. I didn't really know about how everything was before as I only came here fairly recently. Seems fair enough though

Glad to clarify
It's better this way, it's clean and clear and will make the forums more mature again.That's fine
The forums changes and evolves a lot of the years! It used to be ultra strict!! I think I got a warn and temp ban waaaaaaaay back when I first got here for swearing. I was happy when it eased off initially, and I'll freely admit I swear a lot (and a lot in RL) but I think this place is far better without it in all honesty
