Title: Swearing & Racial Abuse

In particular, please watch your F & C's and do not try avoiding the swear checker program!

I will change those that I pick up and if that doesn't seem to be working, then I will delete the post and if that still doesn't work, then you may get an enforced rest.

Cheers!

It has become apparent over time that no matter what may be done via the system, to censor problem words, particularly the F & C's and Racial abuse, members continue to "invent" ways to try to get around the spell checker.

So, it seems to me that the time has come for a different approach!

I'm sure it is apparent to all members that they should not use certain words or invent ways to suggest those words, SO AS FROM NOW, IF I SEE ANY USE OF THOSE WORDS OR APPARENT TRIES TO GET AROUND THE SPELL CHECKER, THEN THAT MEMBER MAY WELL BE GIVEN A SUSPENSION.

The length of the suspension will be determined by whether it is a first up offense or whether the member is a serial offender!

I have a preference to minimize actions as a Moderator & not to take such direct actions, but it is apparent that members (particularly some members) appear happy to break or try to get around the rules.

Those members should now be aware that any such continued action, may well involve themselves in being suspended!

That said, I seek your co-operation in staying within proper limits & thus avoiding the necessity for any such direct actions to be taken.

In anticipation of your co-operation, I thank you!

Please do not quote posts, which have tried to avoid the site Spell Checker &/or that have used Abusive language.

Should you do so, then you may run the risk of your post being deleted, along with the original problem post.

How does one report the use of racial slurs bypassing the filters?
