One of the regulars in this section couldn't (or wouldn't) watch his language, he is done.

I don't care which side of the fence you are on....I don't care that this forum is full of highly emotional issues.  You curse......you're gone.

That is all.

That's always my complaint when removing a user. The discussion disappeared. Was it just the topics don started? Or others that he had intruded upon too?

I agree. With this new type of message board software that we are now using, it doesn't give us that option to just ban a member without their posts and topics they started being removed.

I own or moderate 4 forms. Each of them has a no profanity rule.

I understand doing a face-to-face heated argument or even some casual conversations, people would let profanity slip even unintentionally.

I have no idea why people cannot type out a response and do so without using some kind of profanity. A hunting forum that I belong to, people will use the £%#@ disguise are they were actually type out the word knowing that the forum program will block it with ****.

Sometimes a little profanity is an excellent enhancement to a story.  Jokes just don’t have the same pop when you say “fudge.”

But I get it. It doesn’t bother me as long as it’s not directed towards others.

I have no issue with profanity. I worked around 100+ police office for over 35 years… I’ve definitely heard a few words. It is on occasion humorous and sometimes gets the point across.

But, if I was talking about your statement that I am quoting, it is acceptable to say I don’t agree with you or even I think you have a stupid opinion (but I don’t). But I should be able to get my point across without saying... you are one stupid #%+€ ?€+=.

There is a difference.

In this instance, the aforementioned "bannee" often states/implied that his intellect was far superior to anyone else on this board.

What was particularly galling in this situation was that I warned him about the same thing not more than a couple of hours before.

So not only was he violating forum rules, he was in essence giving me the finger.

When that happens, this happens:
