Been noticing some people always have a different opinion and always try to down play the majority for the way they feel. I know the awnser but could we just say "!@#$% off ****" one time each without geting cast into eternal abandoment? I know the awnser, no you can't, but it sure would be nice huh? :)

I always thought (even in everyday life) that we should all be allowed 1 freebie a month. That plan would work here I think. Could work it on the honor system?

I use to make it a policy in my shop of telling one customer per month to "!@#$% off". I felt great for days after each one. :D <br /><br />Chris...........

Re: Question for the mods, and everyone to read

I once asked a boss a couple of questions. The conversation sort of went like this.....<br /><br />Boss, if I call you a !@#$%, then you can sack me, right?<br />Yes.<br />If I think you're a !@#$%, then you can't sack me, right?<br />Right.<br />Then boss, I think you're a !@#$%.<br /><br /> :D :D

C'mon, guys. <br /><br />How many of you stepped on someone's toes before you got the feel of this place? Would you have become part of the family if you had been told that?<br /><br />Give newcomers a break. Help them to understand this environment. If they are still obnoxious, then. . . well, um. . . sic 'em!

I vote to NOT allow it...<br /><br />I feel that type of language is really an escalation of feelings and that beyond that final $%@$%$ the only way to escalate the feelings or belief is violence.<br /><br />I have seen it personally that the name calling is now attacking the person personally not just the position that person is holding.<br /><br />People should recognize, sadly they do not, that once you start in on using that language you are dangerously close to the edge<br /><br />I personally rarely use such language, I reserve it for appropriate use.<br /><br />and believe me when I do people are shocked because I rarely use it versus the people who frequently use it.<br /><br />Sincerely<br />Tomatolord

Tomatolord,<br /><br />Thanks for your comments, but me thinks this thread is very much 'tongue-in-cheek', so !@#$% off! :D

I am not sure that it is newcomers who were thought to be the unruly minority who deserved such treatment.<br /><br />Methinks it might be others of longer standing in contemplation. <br /><br />Still, I couldn't give a fishy $%^& if these %^&*# want to *&^% over the @#$*&^% #*&^%(*@# who are thought to be responsible for all the #*&^ here, as long as there is a reciprocal right to say "*#$% you, too"!
