Language on the forum *Reminder*
Could I please remind members to watch their language on the forum. I have spent a lot of time lately editing posts to remove mildly offensive words and swear words.
I know these are creeping into our launguage these days but this is a family forum and we do not want younger members to read these things. Abbreviated letters for swearing is also not acceptable. We all know what these mean and say them in our heads so don't use them.
Please also avoid the overuse of text talk such as LOL. One LOL per post is quite enough and try and remember that some of our members do not have English as a first language so too much text talk is impossible for them to understand.
Thank you

Re: Language on the forum
Haha I'll have to work on that... I usually catch my self swearing before I post it though and erase it! I have to admit that even though I'm only 14, I swear A LOT. It's just a bad habit ): sorry
