yeah it would.... if u said for flip sake to an officer he wouldnt arrest you .. if you said for FFS to an officer he would arrest you, there is the difference... :D

I thought the spam was coming from spambots from companies not kids...

I don't care what you can and can't say to a police officer - if I took their hat I'd get arrested, but if I took anyone elses hat (except maybe for the Queen's) I'd not get arrested :P

A word is just a word.

Cheers, Seb.

Hell no Dawn, these spam bots are employed/enslaved Chinese kids.

taking anyones hat would be considered stealing ! :P We are talking about words and their meaning not hats....

Its not just a word , all words have meaning otherwise whats the point in saying them... most words can be printed or said in mainstream, this word isnt.
If it could then perhaps you wouldnt bother using it in the first place...

So I can say wee but I can't say piss? I can say poo but I can't say shit? etc :roll: If people would see that these 'swear' words were just words, and didn't get so crazy over them then yes, maybe some people would use them less (as some do it purely for the fact that they are 'bad' words) but some people would happily use them more because they are just alternates to something else - and like any other word they have their uses.

I think it is now customary that you two have this debate at least once a year. :P

PS- I just cleaned up a crap load of spam. It is getting silly now.

While you're there, get rid of BTR please.

we do.. well the board wouldnt be the same without it ! :D

Thanks for cleaning up the spam Brooke... unfortunately there seems to be a load more today.
