Dear gang, just a quick reminder of the board rules on vulgarity. Please mask offensive terms and words if feel you must use them.
I know masking dirty words with symbols (*#%) is about as effective as putting see-through clothing on someone... you know what's under there but at least an attempt was made. Most of us can handle expletives, but a few cannot, plus masking or creatively not using those words does raise us an extra notch or two above those places where obscenities flow like cheap swill.

I like the idea of the VO-BB being a cut above and the people (contributors) it keeps have made it what it is today.
Fun.
Serious.
Educational.
Opinionated.
Informed.
Generous.
Loving.
Soul searching.
Heart breaking.
All good things
Vulgar for the sake of vulgar - I'd rather not be a part of any of that type o' ting. |
