Please Watch Your Mouth on My Posts!

Greetings everyone! I've got a request. I'd like for my followers to please mind their language when commenting on my posts. As a Christian, I find it offensive and don't appreciate it. If you use language on your own posts that's your choice and I have no right to ask you not to, but I do feel that I have the right to ask you to mind your language when commenting on mine. Even if you're using symbols to block out most of the letters, I'd rather not see it. I've had to delete several comments so far. I'm not trying to be a jerk, honestly. I just prefer to keep things clean, if that's ok. I hope you guys can respect that. Thanks in advance, I really appreciate it! :-)

I don't use it here because I don't want to get kicked off the site.

Makes me wonder who is responding to your posts. I've never seen anything like that here.

@RubyHawk One of them had been on mylot for a while. I'm surprised they haven't been reported yet.

I never used to before but someone was out of control on one of my previous posts. I had to delete a lot of comments. I thought there was a rule against it. The person used symbols to block out most of the letters but it was still obvious what words they were using.

@missjessicadawn I wonder why anyone would do that, It must have been a newbie.

I am very careful with my words everytime I respond to posts here. That is because I also hate those who give foul words in their responses.

I never cuss or use bad words so I don't need to worry about being careful but I just wish other people would be respectful and not post them. :-(

I thought it is a common sense that we have to mind our language here. No rude and swear words?

It should be common sense but nobody seems to have that anymore. :-(

I think it is against the rules to do that anyway. I am fairly new here, and believe you can't use that language on posts, but unsure on comments. I agree. I don't like the language either. But I have been lucky so far, because I have not seen that much on my posts.

It is against the rules. I will be reporting it if I see it again. I just felt that writing this post as a warning first would be fair.

I hope so too. At first is was just one person. They were using bad language and inappropriate jokes. I blocked them but then two more started in with the language. I just don't appreciate it. People used to be more respectful and now nobody seems to care.

oh? so when did this happen? This site is purely english writing only and such strict rule should be followed. But I noticed some of my people can't help themselves. It must be a hassle to even check and delete them.

This has happened in the past couple weeks. I'm going to start reporting it when I see it.

I honestly can't believe that you even have to ask people to keep their language in mind when posting. I hope that they take notice!

It is against the Guidelines - I've copy pasted the relevant piece on what is not tolerated here: 'Using misspellings to circumvent the profanity filter - This is not the place to show-off any colorful language.'

Thanks for sharing this. I was wondering if it would make a difference to report it since they didn't use the actual word but added symbols instead. Now that I know I'll definitely be reporting it.

I agree with you. I donĀ“t see the point in using that kind of rude language to try to make a point. I think we can express oursleves clarily without having to use a ton of foul language per reply.

I agree. Bad language makes people seem less intelligent, in my opinion.

Fair enough. I've seen people either joking or trying to make a point by using those words. But yes, they need to realize that not everyone will appreciate it and they need to respect those who find it offensive.

Exactly. I wish people would do that in real life, too. People used to be more respectful when it came to using bad language.
