... i don't like profanity either, but why would you yell at him for swearing and then - in the same post - link to a video with swearing?

In this case however, I find your challenging of Flapjacks (and other users throughout the SPAM section) more disrespectful/annoying than the swearing in his post in the first place. Mods are here for a reason--mind your own business and don't tell other users what they can and can't do

There's one reason why there's censorship. because alot of children were just going through internet, watching tv, listening to radio, etc. and their parents refuse to let them use profanity, so they censored bad words.

if i hear someone using profanaty, i would say this to him/her:

WATCH YOUR PROFANITY!

I got that from a video from another site (not YouTube). and the young boy in the video doesn't use profanity in it.

and the guy who said it part, it came from a tv show. i can't remember what its called, but i know what channel its on. it's on A&E.

*(bleep)* that *(bleep)*

honestly though, i never saw why "bad" words are "bad." i've heard it was initially because they were used too often or in insult of others, so they were dubbed "bad" in attempt to make people stray from them. basically a sign of a limited or rudimentary vocabulary. i don't overuse "bad" words, i just simply use them like i would any other word; a line maybe could be drawn if the word is used specifically to offend

To: Flapjacks,

WATCH YOUR PROFANITY!

It also makes people sound more hostile than they might mean to, which is an environment I hope to avoid on this forum. If I go to a forum where every other word is the "f" word, I'm probably going to avoid that forum because I don't want to hang around with unintelligent and/or angry people.

As an adult this is one of the main problems I have with them now. I'm not offended by the use of bad words like I used to be, but people too often use them as a crutch, and it makes them sound unintelligent.

Occasionally words are considered bad because they refer to something that kids probably shouldn't be talking about, but not always.
