Remove Vulgar Thread Titles
March 16, 2018 at 5:34 pm
(This post was last modified: March 16, 2018 at 5:35 pm by Neo-Scholastic.)
It's one thing to see vulgarities in the posts within threads where people can choose whether or not to choose to participate and can respond directly to such language. I'm not trying to be prudish, but do I think it harms the forums to continue allowing vulgarities in thread titles. I suggest that it be made a rule to not allow blatantly offensive terms and vulgarities in thread titles.

Oh, dear, you know what this means now? A slew of new threads purposely titled to be vulgar.

I have never been fucking offended by any language on this forum. Some of the racists have offended me with their ideas but not individual words. I vote for more vulgarity!

Just speaking for myself, but I would not want to moderate vulgar thread title reports.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

I don't think there's anyone on staff interested in drawing a line between vulgar and not.
Sorry.

Yeah, not going to move a muscle. What's next, you want the staff to make children for you too?

If I were on staff, I would delete any thread which did NOT contain vulgarity in the title.
Might be a crazy idea, but I think Min has earned some time to himself on the boards.
