Howdy one and all. Its been mentioned in passing from some members that at times we are straying away from the family forum values we have here (Fri, Sat, Sun, Great drinking days). Can we all just remember (and i include meself here;-) that the forum is viewed by the wider population than just us here, thus we need to restrain ourselves sometimes.
Thanks All :bigthumbup:
Does that mean it was fri,sat,sun all the time you were away.lol
hear what you're saying, think everyone is like minded
Nup thats just generalised that maybe we're getting a bit coarse, possibly when were pi553d hahahahhahaha some of us like drinking 7 days a week ;-)
I must admit I'm guilty myself, sometimes just let one or few go.
Lucky I don't drink;)
..........on the move
I hear ya, but dont think its getting coarse, maybe the elbows come out a bit when someone is passionate on the subject, but thats fair and usually goes no further.
Guys absolutely no finger pointing here (except for nisshead he's a .........hahahhahaha great bloke) its over many threads that this has been noted on and not the obvious ones.
Thanks for the infraction mate, I'll keep it clean from now on mate. HahahahahQuote:

LMFAO!!!
Can't say I've crossed the line as such - even on the hooley - but I'm certainly guilty of pushing the boundaries at times ... so I'll be sure to be sure to be a better boy!! lol
Yeah, but we don't wanna become a bunch of old woman .
As long as its clean fun then all good Bit of push and shove is healthy as well in contex.

Lots of us swear in our daily lives, but forums are not the place for even the f and s words, there is no need to swear to get your message out there.
I try and stay away after a couple of jars, I would only end up saying something I would regret and end up feeling bad.
But having said that, this IS a family friendly forum and I would like it to stay that way.
Cheers, the ferret.
Ha, sometimes I stack on a show when my internet provider goes AWAL, lots of swearing and desk thumping, missus get's agro, I yell at the dog and tell the cat to beat it.Quote:

I have not come across any inappropriate posts, but I do not get much time to check them all....................It is anyways a good to get a reminder that we need to watch what we post, well done Growler.
Hey Rod, you had better watch out for that pink & grey Budgie of yours mate...........what a foul mouthed piece of work he is, where did he learn all that from........ROFLMAOQuote:

Even if something you write doesn't seem racist / sexist to you, it could be offending another member

I am all for keeping it family friendly, after all that is why a lot of us are here.
A thread I started pushed the boundaries and was a bit of a grin, although at times I did wonder what had I started.
Can understand how some may find it went a bit far and not for the the ladies, young ones or at work.
As mods do you let a poster know their post has been edited?
The reason I ask is a while ago a post said someone belonged on another forum if they wanted to carry on like that.
For the life of me I could not figure out whether it was me, someone else, deleted or what. Certainly wasn't clear what the problem was so how could the standard be raised?
If it had been me, and a PM told me so I would not repeat the offence, simple.
I still don't know if I had offended a fellow member.
This is a great place, the language is generally mild and really any differences of opinion are just discussion amongst mates.
Good on you all.....
Don't worry Macca, toddies fingers get away on him sometimes after a few bourbons. The other mods are generally pretty good except maybe that Growler but we need a special mod in all the forums mate. Hahahahah
Oops!
..........on the move
Most that need editing for racial, sexual etc reasons get a PM to let them know (politely), but I edit swear words all the time and don't tell them ... it's not that bad at all usually, and the swearing side of it is more for the Google words aspect - they scan forums for that sort of thing and you can be pushed down the search list is you breach some arbitrary guideline they use ... So I only do it to keep the forum website high up the search results when someone types in Nissan, Patrol, forum, etc, etc, ...Quote:

Hey guys,
I was having another look at AB's post in the introduction thread, may be it could be expanded into a sort of Code of Conduct to cover a couple of the issues that have been brought up in this thread.
The other thing is as MudRunner said about the intro side of things, could it be the first thing you see when you come to this site, a little like the Towballs warning at the top. I know I'm probably creating work for you guys that you don't need, but it might lighten the work load in the long run.
Just some thoughts.
