I have created a poll - Please vote
Profanity user on the ILUG-Bom mailing list should be
A. Put on moderation B. Barred from the list C. Awarded for his/her contribution D. Made list moderator/administrator
Please take your pick!
I made it even more easy to vote
Here is the result of the poll.
41% voted for barring the person from the list 36% voted for putting offending member on moderation 18% voted for giving award for "contribution" 5% voted for making offender admin/moderator.
what was the total number of votes polled? I am sure it will be a ridiculously low number.
Considering the majority wants offender to be gaged, admins/mods will put profanity user on the list on moderation for one month followed by expulsion from the list on repeat offense(s).
Now enjoy your Freedom with Responsibility.
Profanity???? Who decides?. Is bloody a profanity? is jerk a profanity? is dork a profanity?
Bloody is commonly used in colloquial english, but if you use it with a non english speaking person he will be deeply offended ( has happened with me) Dork means a male whale's sex organ and commonly used in canada, Oz and NZ and is a profanity that most here wont even know.
Is asshole a profanity ?. How about anal retentive for the profanity super-sensitized.
While speaking in person one can sensitize oneself. While on the net it is difficult.
Come on guys get a life. I have yet to see something more idiotic.
