Are you saying that you want anarchy Martin? Because that is what we would have without some form of moderation on this site. I'm quite sure a few people have left the site because of the sort of posts that you and others make. I am also sure that they far outweigh the unnamed supporters that you allude to in your post @ 0350. I also don't think you are right to call it political correctness, it is more a common decency and respect for others thing. You don't know everybody that posts on here, so you can't know who is, and who isn't offended by bad language, from what I read we certainly seem to have a lot of churchgoers on this site, and I can't imagine they are overjoyed about it. There are women and kids too, I don't know about your family but I still feel awkward if I swear in front of my 37 year old son and his partner, it's an upbringing thing. You can't afford egocentricity when you're among such a mixed bunch of people.
