Why do people on this forum curse so FUCKING much?

Every other word is "F this" "F that". I mean, i'm no prude, heck I even run a hip hop record label, so I hear it all the time. But on a forum such as this, is it REALLY necesarry? Why is it that you guys type that kind of language in practically EVERY thread? Is that really considered work safe?

Or am I just overreacting? I mean, I could see if it was a verbal conversation, sometimes you can't control it... but you are TYPING, its easily avoided. It doesn't make you seem any cooler by doing so. Chill the heck out.

Other sites are much worse as far as cursing is concerned. And "not work safe"? It's a word on the screen, not a huge picture that anyone walking by your monitor will take notice of.

Does that make it any more necesarry? Can't we have a conversation WITHOUT that word? Or is that simply not feasible? Oh, and a mod can PLEASE close this thread, I should have known what type of mature responces it would garner.

No way dude -- I just got done editing the title of your thread!
 
to give you a straight answer jeffdowns, to some, cursing just isn't that big a deal. I don't even notice im doing it when im typing to be honest. I like you jeffdowns, you named your record label after a pearl jam song.

I simply think you're exaggerating the amount of cursing on the forum.

Are you fucking retarded? You're worried about getting fired because your boss is going to see the word "fuck" in size 10 font on your screen?

Cockfag.

I was being facetious wit the "STFU"... :)
I won't take myself too seriously, but foreal I was just asking. lol. I knew this would garner this responce, to expect anything else would have been quite ignorant of me.

Maybe there should just be a filter that censors curse words like they do on TV movies.

"Motherfucker" --> "My friend"
and so on.

Here's what adults do, JeffDowns. They decide if a community is right for them before they join, and once they do, they show some tolerance.

Fuck you very much for the judgement.

Well you shouldnt really be borwsing at work anyway so your point is moot. Saying people are immature when you dont get the response you wanted is pretty dumb aswell as not realising that different people are offended by different things. Its people like you that are making everything in the world so politically correct.
