We accept that there will be occasional profanity used. Such is life. If you're offended by profanity, this might not be a place for you.
Some people have very strong opinions. They're welcomed here too. We're not trying to create a politically correct fantasy world where people have to hold their tongue for fear of offending.
In general, we want to hear what you have to say, in the way you feel like saying it... but we'd like it to be useful to others. We hope these minor rules aren't ominous or restricting. They're basic and they (hopefully) get rid of the noise that would otherwise make this a less useful place.
