    I'm going to throw in one more bit of information that hasn't been mentioned:

    1.) This is Allen's site
    2.) Allen has either developed or agreed to the rules that have been created.
    3.) Not swearing is one of those rules.
    4.) YOUR OPINION OF WHETHER THE RULE IS STUPID OR UNFAIR OR UNREALISTIC IS COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT. It's one of the rules you agreed to when you signed up here. When you clicked the "AGREE" button, that meant you would abide by the rules.

    why anyone would defend cussing is beyond me, actually quite pathetic. now let me establish myself as a hypocrite because as much as i try not to cuss i do. However there is a difference between something accidentally slipping out,(in conversation) and putting thought into typing it onto a computer right? love this site and it takes the contributions from all kinds of people- cussing and non lol! so i leave you with this: why look for grey area and say ''well everybody else is doing it''or just accepting it as the ''norm'' (witch lends greatly to the demise of our society -there are defined right and wrongs)its clearly posted as a rule and a lot of people don't want to hear it, so why not respect your fellow site members and not put the effort into doing it.

    What some people refuse to wrap their head around is that this forum is Allen's and he has rules in place and every member here agreed to them.

    In essence, it's like inviting a bunch of people into your home and letting them know you don't allow swearing in your home. Then some moron says "ok, I won't sweat" but then gets in your house and decide those rules don't apply to them and they don't have to follow them. The head of that house has every right to ask the person to stop swearing or to leave. If you don't like the rule - don't go to the persons house. They probably don't enjoy your company anyway.

    The same is true on the site. If you don't like the rules and constantly buck them, your presence probably isn't really wanted here by the majority anyway and most would be just fine seeing you leave. But the bottom line is the owner of the site or those moderators he's entrusted the site with, have the right to send those ones packing.

    At first, I thought it was a silly rule, but I'll admit, it's probably one of the only reasons I still come here. Most of the other forums are filled with unnecessary swearing, and constant random pictures of chicks. I swear when I'm with my friends as much as the next guy, and I love chicks, but there are sites for looking at those too. Usually when I'm on here, it's because I had some genius idea and want to see if anyone has done it before, how it worked, or why it didn't. Cursing simply doesn't add to that. This site is like a 'family'. The people that want to argue every rule add very little. And the ones that dis the site the most, seem to be on it the most.

    I'll agree there haven't been too many 'new' topics lately, or any real good write ups, but there are still people that will walk you through procedures, or send pics of how something SHOULD be.
