It was closed down before I could respond. Ok It's the odd swear I use that is the bone of contention. I get that, I will no longer try and bypass the swear filter. Though I do think that the odd minor swear word does garnish writing that is meant too emulate the peaks and trough's of speech rather than an essay.
A comment was made about not tolerating the way a minority
element of the British people use English. If that was said a bout say Jamaicans you lot would be all up in arms.
Shouldn't we all be more tolerant and accept people express themselves in different ways?
This thread refers to the way in which an ABer phrases his posts on *this* forum.....nothing to do with the wider-world.
He has no reason to write his posts in the way he does and we *all* have to temper our more colourful language when participating on here, or we stand to have our posts removed.
Hmm interesting thread but there are other ways of ridiculing people on chat sites other than swearing at them such as trying to look down your nose at them
"A comment was made about not tolerating the way a minority

Like another ABer has said - I swear sometimes when talking, but not in writing, but I have resorted to the asterisk. However, there are swear words and SWEAR words and there are two I use frequently that I hardly would call swear words these days, and one stronger one that I only use at home with great gusto.
