He was too outraged by the language and the verbal violence which had spread like a cancer. He couldn't take it and so he decided to close it down, even though it was the most active forum for atheists. But then, look at how he frequently answers in public. He is no model of restrain when it comes to use cussin' words. All in all, it has to do with self-discipline. Anyone can use the F-word, it's the easiest one to use when you want to tell someone to get lost. But as I said before, it has been overused and abused.
I didn't know that Dawkins has such a propensity for cussing. If that is true, then I suppose people might have had a better opinion of him if he did less of that.
I only heard him say "fuck off" one time in this video. (Funny how he said it with so little force).
