Public Service Announcement: Profanity in Happy Hour
 

Hey guys.

Being the buzzkiller that I am, I'm going to be setting some ground rules for the Happy Hour board regarding profanity. This isn't necessarily a forum wide policy, but you may as well get in the habit.

Profanity isn't out of control, but it's definitely making a bigger appearance on the board than it has in recent years. It's not that I don't swear, but in moderation and only when it's appropriately expressive. One of the things I've always appreciated at Gametavern is the fact that the members maintained a level of decency on the boards without the need for administrative moderation. With new members joining the forum, censorship is becoming more of a concern. Both in the profanity they bring to the forums, and what they take from the forums and use elsewhere. There are no age restrictions to join Gametavern and a degree of care needs to be taken. Aside from that, I think it's just common courtesy to keep it clean.

I'm not after anybody, I'm just making a statement that I'd appreciate it if you guys would try to moderate yourselves. If there's a problem, I will first edit the offending post and send a PM. If it continues, more action may be necessary, but I really am very lax with using my moderating abilities. General rule of thumb, ask yourself if your post is in good taste and if you can't really say yes then you should probably revise it.

Thanks,
Eric

Friendly underwater cats.

Its a quote form Harvey Birdman attourney at law when his boss ran over a guy everyday that week on his way to work. He was taking an eye test.

Profanity pretty much covers the three major 4-letter words, right?

Because, if so, I'll be fine. Innuendos are more fun anyway.

I was just joking, trying to sound like a kid who had just heard someone curse. But right now, I can't tell if you're joking or not :)

While there are no age restrictions, anyone under the age of 13 must have parental permission.

This isn't pertinent to topic at hand but I just thought it was funny that a fax or mailed letter with a parental signature is required. I mean, really, how do you enforce that? Do you really think Neo has ever received one? :lolz:

It's a federal law. The COPPA Registration System.
