I'm sorry, but on this occasion I'm standing by my point. From your user notes (and I even checked the post), you posted a 4 letter swear word and left in 2 of the letters.

In G|mp's post, whilst it's plainly obvious what he posted, all of the letters of the actual swearword were starred out.

Exactly.
 
It doesn't really matter if we think the mods do their job properly, we're on their site, we either put up or shut up and go elsewhere.

Regarding the muslim bashing/racism, it's been like that for many years, it's never really going to change so, again, you either ignore it or just avoid browsing GD.

Haha, you put them in their place :D

I'm similar in that I post a lot less these days because I don't get myself actively involved in debates as you mention. We've pretty much done all the topics to death over the years so we might as well leave them to the likes of Castiel to mop them all up :p

and is the real world ( for those who frequent it ) any different ? what are the majority of chain text messages you receive about ?
 
There's a slight difference between light-harted racism/jokes and genuine hatred. I wasn't complaining either way, just clarifying things for the OP.

It does give the forum a negative vibe IMO.

On the same note, there is swearing in real life yet it's banned on here, family forum and all that.

genuine hatred or inciting hatred will always be dealt with and is not welcome here

I reckon DD was getting close to that.

I believe he was run out of town over at 'the other place' for the same thing.

Being a racist bampot.

DD's behaviour here has always been different to over there, while he had strong opinions he does know where the boundaries are ( most of the time )

That's the rock and the hard place.

You can't appease both sides.

I've done it myself, fired off an RTM to the mods after a firey debate got closed with me accusing them in the heat of the moment of defending racists yadada.

They can't win, if it closes on one side the extremists decry the end result.

If the more liberal 'lose', it's all the same.
