Family Forum

[jclay (RIP 2018)]

Hi, everyone,

I know that many of us included our children when reading this site. Our cars are very much a family obsession. I have also noticed over the past several weeks that some have become a bit flippant about the use of words not usually acceptable for a family setting. I would ask that we all think a little bit about what we have typed before we hit the "Post New Topic" button.

Thank you for your consideration,

Clay

Swearing is what separates us from the apes, Clay. It is a sign of advanced evolution.

Pity the Borneo orangutan, with nothing at all to shout when he shears the head off a stuck bolt.

Apart from the recent spam I haven't noticed anything offensive. Can we have a list of banned words please? [}:)]

So what have you read on here that you find so offensive [?]
I can't ever remember seeing or reading anything offensive on here.

i havnt seen anythin out of order either !! ( not that i would let my son come on an adult forum !!) as with any internet forums u never know what may be lurking !! all the people on here seem to have the sence not to put anythin offensive , and most seem to have a very good sence of humour !!

[jclay (RIP 2018)]

I do agree that we each have a right to say what we want, I don't want to ban any words. We all have rights here. I think I will exercise one of mine.

Clay, if you have concerns you need to discuss them. As much as we respect you we can't read your mind.
