I think we need clarification on what is acceptable if you're going to police us. Are faux swears allowed (eg fecker, one of my favourites)? I don't want to be banned for accidentally setting off someone's prude radar. I don't know how to swear properly since the change anyway - I've certainly not seen anyone posting instructions.
I do also think it's a bit rich that we are being treated like small children just to keep some delicate little flower's sensitivities appeased. Not really sure how it affects your advertisers, who I assume you mean by 'outside organisations' (eg the dodgy Christian Louboutin firms that always seem to be at the top banner) how we speak so long as the odd few people keep clicking through and buying fake shoes from them.
Hear hear. I also agree with Mel.
FWIW I’ve been meaning to report your advertsiers to trading standards, since they are clearly selling fakes.
Hitched has a long tradition of treating its members like errant, stupid, children. I think this was tolerated due to its popularity, familiarity and ease of use. It will be intersting to see if this is still tolerated now it is none of those things.
To be quite honest, if you don’t want us here then just bloody well tell us. Stop fannying about trying to make it as difficult as possible to be members.
Yes, we’re probably seen as old hitched dinosaurs who were a bit too lairy for the fluffitus “lets all find the best place to buy vases” brigade, and if that’s whats you see your forum being in future then at least let us know so those of us who are getting annoyed with it can stop haning round hoping things will change.
