Absolutely, swearing of any sort is disallowed.
I do all my swearing in my head in front off my screen. :

I dont swear anymore on PRE...I've seen the light...My faith is in God now.
Matthew 15:11: "Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man."
Matthew 15:17-20: "Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught?
18 But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man.
19 For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:
20 These are the things which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man."

What about sitting in the Great Southern with the great unwashed, what mortal position does that leave ones soul in?

What if we type in the word *smile* , maybe then the swear words will really come out........ :cheeky
Didn't work. Geez Rosy's tough. :-\
Easy solution: Any swearing or reference to swearing warrants a suspension of some sort.
Lets keep this site great.

I'm not sure I understand shawry. Do you mean because you can't swear at school?
Imagine if teachers sent home reports with some of the language used on websites....I bet they're thinking it a lot of the time.
Imagine if businessmen spoke to clients that way, or sent them letters, full of expletives.
I don't think too many of us would have issues with swearing at the footy (or in our shearing shed like I did when a sheep stood on my foot yesterday :-[ ) but I'd be surprised if anyone could put a case forward for allowing uncensored swearing on PRE.
This is the chance to try but until anyone can convince us everybody who's registered here has agreed to the anti-swearing policy and it would be appreciated if they abide by that. :hearton

Keep the process automatic, transparent and consistent.
Maybe one warning and then a suspension for a week on the next offence.
and tell eveyone when someone does get suspended, that will keep some in line as well.
olice:(just a suggestion)
Good to see you've found God skills!!! seems like God's speaking another language though these days eh?? OLD ENGLISH
If everyone sticks to the no swearing policy then there won't be a need for warnings or suspensions. ;D
The way I see it is that its the responsibility of all PREnders to help monitor the site and keep it out of the gutter (and yes I admit I have broken the rules once or twice too).

This was actually tried sometime before. Our admin played a little joke once
and replaced 'dud' with something like 'hero' (I can't remember exactly) for
a very short while. The commotion and bleating that it caused, particularly
in relation to one particular unstable poster - who no longer posts here -
was considerable. There were serious accusations of censorship and
modifcation of posts , that 'someone' had allowed others to use their account
etc. All it was was a trivial experiment and joke with the swear filter. There
were threads posted on other sites about it.... all of which were made up
*smile* (did the filter work on that word?). It was completely over the top.
That particular poster was last seen on BLOS ;D ;D ;D
Maybe you should start a swear tin Rosy. Some members will end up paying for this site in no time. ;D

Big rumour that Eddie wants to jealously acquire Rosy's PRE site because the Collingwood one is impossible to read due to swear words and extremely low IQ within the posters.gustiger12 said:
