the autocorrect on non offensive words is petty and annoying

[DaChunk]

Why do you feel the need to censor people from saying "R.afa" or "the. Ev"? Just annoys me a bit seeing my words changed like I'm a child.

It’s very common in working class Liverpool.

The word must have originated in either Liverpool or Dublin then. Considering how geographically close both cities are to each other, then it's not surprising that usage of the word yous, made it's way across the irish sea i suppose.

I always associate the word yous with Dublin folk. The working class Dubs in particular. Where are yous? Are yous ok etc. I've never heard non Dubs use the word.

We use that in the North too. Youse'll probably not know that though.

That's true the furthest north i've been to in Ireland is Mayo!

I have no idea on running a site for the record. Wouldn't it make life easier all around if you auto changed swearing to a generic word/s and not issue points for swearing? Less of a job for you!

Just seems a bit long winded, people can't swear but get 'punished' for swearing anyway!

Grammar, punctuation, use of slang.

Isn't that the point?

People know they can't swear so if they do it willingly they get points.

How many points do I have?

I understand why swearing (amongst other things) can't be on a site that effectively uses the ad services this does. Offering warnings to something that can and generally is a non existent thing is giving people a telling off for something they can't anyway! Just change swear words to something innocent and it will just make a more amusing read.

Or... just read and follow the forum rules that say "no swearing"? I assume you wish to follow all the other rules on the site.

Seems you are disagreeing with me for the sake of it here, missing the point entirely. So I will just bid you a good evening and leave it.

You want Danny to come up with less offensive swear words for all possible swear words, do all the background work to make that switch (if it's even possible) instead of a him making a simple request to a bunch of freeloaders to just not swear on the site that he provides with his finances, time and effort?????

*takes of mod badge
Koff! (see what I did there)


*puts mod badge back on

It's really not a big ask.
The rules are the rules. They are pinned at the top of this forum for your reading pleasure. Follow them or face the consequences. Your choice.

Also, you are now on @AndyC 's watch list.

How many points do I have?

How many would you like?
