Posted: Tue Aug 07, 2007 8:15 pm Post subject: Channel Four forums censoring NAU and SPP?? |
|
|
I posted a topic about this, asking whether many had heard about it, what it was, what it meant etc, it wasn't a very long post at all. Last time I checked it had 7 replies, and now I've just checked and it's disappeared completely.
Checked my past forum posts also and apparently I never posted it...so either I dreamt it or they deleted it... |

Hmmmm, I guess you dreamt it
Just keep quiet and hope you don't suffer from such confusing, vivid dreams again.
Anyway, jokes aside..
You should just create another one with some clear and important points about what the NAU/SPP will mean, and if that gets deleted - another one!! _________________ www.myspace.com/garethwilliamsmusic |

That means the C4 moderators are doing their job properly!! If you have to use bad language to express yourself you shouldn't be on a medium which is accessible to children.

I kind of agree - because it sadly is a fact that some words are considered "bad".
I don't agree however that using words considered to be "bad" in context is swearing. Words like sh*t for example....when and who decided that word is "bad" and by which 'guide book' did he/she use to deem such words offensive??
If going into a bathroom with a blocked toilet saying "This smells like Shi*t!" is considered "bad" then so should all other synonyms of the word.
It's a word for crying out loud!?!?
Now, I do agree that when making a point about anything it is far better and more productive to use more discriptive terms to put forth an emotion. Using words that are considered "bad" out of context sometimes cheapens all future comments, debates. _________________ www.myspace.com/garethwilliamsmusic |
