Why is swearing allowed in the comments posted , for skins, walls, etc.?

Saturday, May 8, 2004 by teddybearcholla | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I know most everyone swears once in awhile, but why are comments allowed that in particular use the f word? I use it on occasion, but I do not believe that it belongs here. Has everyone become that immune to foul language?

There's a few thousand skins here. We can't police the comments of every one for bad language. If you come across anything you feel is inappropriate to the site, the best plan is to e-mail one of us admins with a link.

Foul language should not be used on any public forum of the community. It not only shows immaturity but lack of respect as well. If you come across these types of inappropriate comments, let one of the admins know.

How come, if we can get winC to eat words like [)elete and seIect, we cant get it to eat the f-word too?

Maybe because the script bug is favorable to the 'F' word

Seriously though, if a script can be that seIective to take out words like that, then it should be able to be used to nuke other ones.

When you are viewing your (or whoever's) comment page, simply copy and paste the URL here and it will make a link for you. For example here's a link to the comment page on your Ladybug paper.

which makes a link like so https://www.wincustomize.com/window.asp?Cmd=COMMENTS&Lib=8&SkinID=16967
