Infracting for Swearing Version 2 - 09-20-09

Read the first announcement before reading this or you will most likely misinterpret what this post is about.

The staff are rather worked up about my previous announcement which people seem to think "allows swearing".

I would like to clarify this.

Swearing is not allowed on friendcodes.com.

The reason for my announcement was that many people were being infracted for a once-off offense for a censored word they did not anticipate would be censored and therefore would be against the rules.

So for a quick update, I am going to advise you all to watch what you say when posting. If the moderation staff can see your posts are repeatedly containing censored words, they will determine that you're just swearing for the hell of it. You will be infracted.

Do not abuse the system.

Most of us acknowlegde this fact, but not all of us know to what limit.

I'm not sure how to say it, but how far can we go as to cursing?

I'm saying, will we get infracted for saying silly stuff such as 'PooperNuggets"? That sort of thing.

Depends on if the word is being offensive to another member. We have always had rules for offensive behaviour.

If it's censored, it's not allowed. If it's not censored and you're not altering a censored word to evade the censor, assume it's okay until someone complains about it. But don't insult members.

What if you say.....wiss, but with a p where the w is.......it censors it.

Is it possible for us to get an infraction for that?
