But it isn't generally distasteful, is it? And the reason I bigged it up was that it was the punchline - and I guess too many people on here now have kids of their own, so free speech has naturally gone out of the window...
That theory has now been bolstered by the fact that since my last search for that word, every instance has been masked out now, so it looks as though this site has been castrated by political correctness - pity, but if I can't have free expression I guess that means I won't be contributing any more...
As for 'offending the kiddies', the only children that would be visiting this site would be those under 18, but still old enough to want to gamble, and trust me, they're already going to know the existence of that word, and worse besides...
You'll notice from my post years ago that I do censor some of my dialogue, such as that thing about 'we're going p**i bashing', but the so-called c-word (since you'll only star it out anyway) I don't think should be expurgated from the English language...
George Washington: "If freedom of speech be taken away, then silent shall we be led, like lambs to the slaughter"
Voltaire: "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it"
OK, rant over - bye everyone.
It's nothing to do with censoring free speech. But let me ask this? Why did you feel the need to censor your own dialogue as stated above? You're arguing that it's all just words. But you censored a word yourself. Was it common sense that prevailed here? I'm not censoring free speech at all. Just asking for a bit of common sense here and there. To maybe think for a moment about wether writing a word will offend. Not necessarily me, but the members this site caters for.
A little restraint here and there is all thats asked and I'm the scourge of western democracies and responsible for the demise of free will. I darent mess with the F word as no doubt I'll be hunted down like a dog for war crimes against humanity.
