As I did when the click baity thread titles were briefly against the rules. It isnt because of being "offended" by vulgarity or anything like that, it would be more for improving the overall quality of the forum, as Chad said. Either way, it doesn't particularly bother me though.
The most vulgar things I've seen on this site had little or no "naughty" words. Shall we make it against the rules to make pro-bigotry or anti-semitic (or whatever else may be deemed vulgar) thread titles as well?

That said, the railing some xtians make against atheists is just as bad, and just as vulgar, but in another way. Standing there on some alleged "high ground" and calling out what they perceive to be bad behavior. Again, bluenose preaching. This has never been the place for it, and it will be mocked forevermore, anon. I personally love the internet's effect on all that "high and mighty" preaching shit that has intimidated so many for so long. Chad, jam your religious "righteousness" right where the sun doesn't shine. You too, "Banned". If you and your ilk didn't come into any atheist forum, and the rest of the world didn't have your sort out trying to regulate people's behavior, there wouldn't be any complaints about you. Get it? Naw, you have your gawd on your side, and you shits outnumber the unbelievers, so you think that you can just go anywhere and cow people into doing as you say. Those days are over, bub. Tell you what, Banned. Go to Maylasia and reform all those Muslims. Go on, you have your god on your side! Get 'er done!
Lol, he didn't mention religion at all in his suggestion, neither does it imply in any way that religion is a reason for his suggestion.
Anyway, this forum section is specifically designed for forum members to give suggestions and feedback. Chad came in here and did just that, and it was completely unrelated to religion.
I'm not sure why he's getting accused of attacking atheists. Are only the atheist forum members allowed to give suggestions?
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
