List of banned words

[Cussy]

Derek, can you please list the words which are banned and will earn someone an infraction, just so we can clear up any confusion or double standards that Skindog might have in the future?

Last time I checked, "shit" was considered a swear word, yet not worthy of an infraction if posted by a moderator. However, me posting the word "dickhead" is worthy of an infraction it seems.

The rules state that "higher end" swear words will earn an infraction - I would have thought that meant two words, one starting with f, the other with c. If anything is else is on the higher end, can you please inform us, otherwise Skinner will use the ambiguous rule to make himself feel better for contradicting himself on another matter yesterday.

So do I, and I'll post that here to make it public.

[Cussy]

How about I post a list of all the swear words I can think of and you just put a red mark next to those which aren't allowed?

No? Just trying to help ;-)

[Derek]

That would not be helpful.

Entertaining, perhaps.

True story here. Once, when I was about 10(or last week, I can't remember) I wrote a list of all the swear words I could think of. I was obviously so proud of myself that I kept the list, hid it down the side of a cupboard and forgot about it. That was until mum found it and threatened to show my teacher, which used to be the scariest punishment you could give a child.

What is the status of the n word? If it's banned do only whiteys get an infraction? How do you know I'm not black? This is getting complicated.

[Derek]

It would be statistically reasonable to assume you're not black. :)

I would look at its use in context before making a decision.

The word "retard" should be classified as a "higher end" swear word worthy of an infraction.

Is it starting to get to you is it mate?

If we made a rule where people with numbers and letters in thier username get banned, it would be easier. Ok, we'd lose Hound and Statman, and new user Cameron, but we'd also lose this bloke, lawsy, razorgirl and Skindog1234 so I can live with that.

If it makes the decision easier, Hound hasn't been around all that much over the last few months...

LOL is joycefan permanently banned?

I get the feeling that your getting in trouble also had a bit to do with the slant of your thread as well. ;)

My brother got in trouble for swearing at a teacher at school, and so my dad made him write what he'd said 500 times. He made a spelling mistake, and had to write it all again.

... I got into trouble in year 10 for saying that something was "stuffed" . Like , " the projector was "stuffed" ".

My argument was that I wasn't swearing ... but the teacher intimated that she knew what I REALLY wanted to say.

That Miss Skinner, I bet she'd never been stuffed in her life.

I got spoken to at work one day by an older employee who took offence at something I said. A colleague asked me if I knew how to fix a problem & I replied with "Buggered if I know", which was a favourite expression of my late father. The older employee took offence & took me to task about the use of teh word "bugger".

There's a scene in The Simpsons (I think relatively new) where Bart and Milhouse have made a list of "swears" from the Bible, which are obviously therefore OK - "whore", "damn", "ass", "hell" and "Leviticus" are on the list.

Milhouse: Bart, I don't think "Leviticus" is a swear.

Bart: Shut the hell up you damn ass whore.

... Wouldn't that be due to "bugger" meaning "taking it up the khyber" in old school parlance?

... Wouldn't that be due to "bugger" meaning "taking it up the khyber" in old school parlance?nothing "old school" about it Joe - bugger is defined: sodomize: practice anal sex upon

to bugger someone is to commit buggery, now we just have more colourful and interesting expressions for the same thing
