The 'C' word

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

The 'C' word

Post by Belfast Boy »

Are we not allowed to use this word anymore on the forum, it's not that I don't agree cos it's not a very nice word and I certainly don't use it very often but someone has edited my post???

Did I not ask the other day "who is policing the police" ? Seems like we got our answer now - it must be the secret police :wink: :lol: :lol: Seriously BB as a moderator you will have to sort this out or before you know it we will be on a par with the official Arsenal forum :roll: :roll:

Can we write the "C word" if we are referring to Carlton or Andy or Joe? Or does the ban only extend to Cuntley?

i've come in at the end of this and i've only a vague idea which thread this started with (where c**t was edited).

however, just to clarify my own position on this. i don't like seeing the word in its full form in a thread title. so that is the policy as the buck stops with me.

any moderators reading this, edit it down to something like c**t or c*** in thread titles, but don't bother going through threads changing it. there aren't enough hours in the day, but i'd prefer not to see it leaping off of the page on the threads list.

the gooner has a policy of censoring this word in the issue as the publisher feels it is worse than 'normal' swearwords, and i'm inclined to agree. in my own language i'll use f**k on occasion but i don't use the 'c' word. i do feel it is worse.

these things are entirely subjective of course, but given the amount of licence generally allowed on this forum, please try and refrain from using the word unedited in thread titles. Use c**t with asterisks if you really need to

thanks.
