Yes, we have the occasional swear word but I think generally people use appropriate language and our mods are good at keeping an eye on the board and removing spam that may or may not be offensive. I think given the amount of traffic only having a few swear words is probably pretty good
agreed

and none were even me!~ which is quite amazing because i've been known to drop a few f-bombs ;P
You can't just "ban" when people swear unless the site is child oriented. This site is not child oriented. It is oriented for people that create crafts that are video game related. I believe 90% of the people here are over 18 and there are a good group of us that are over 30.

Word.
Censoring swearing would be catering to a very small minority.
And there has never been anything graphic or inappropriate in any way that I can recall.
Some people even put "NSFW" on their projects that I would consider PG-13. =P
nobody will get banned for occasional swearing, I am only concerned if someone is using it every other word.
people should of course keep it in mind that some people simpy don't like swearing, under 18 or over 18, so its best to use other creative words while in public anyway. I swear plenty in daily life, but I hold it back at work and in public places...this is a public place.
that being said, sometimes there is good timing and you need it.
One thing that I have found slightly annoying is that when people reply to a post their reply ends up at the end of the list. Shouldn't the newer ones be at the top? That's just how I see it done on other sites maybe I'm the only one who is annoyed by it.

all the forums I've been on have the same post layout as this. Personally i would find it more annoying having to go to the end of the thread and read through it backwards to have it in order.
