Is it just me or has there been a lot of profanity on MME posts, lately? My mouth is as bad as the next guy's, but I thought we were supposed to keep it somewhat clean here.

If it isn't safe for work, put NSFW in the title instead of profanity in the title. If I hit unread posts and #@%***!~##@$%^ is in the title and someone looks over my shoulder at work, I'm in trouble.
this is why my montior is turned so no body can look over my shoulder.....just in case (stupid cube farms).
And this site is nothing compared to another I'm on, have to have avatars, sig lines, etc all turned off there.
dont check DFWmiata at work....there fixed

The thing that I never understood, while working as an IT guy and not, is why people are concerned with profanity on sites that their work doesn't block anyway. Porn or illegal sites, sure, be concerned someone might see it. But those are usually blocked anyway. Seems like the people worried someone might see a bad word on their monitor are using that as an excuse to be worried that they are really just wasting company time to begin with.
It's a personal choice by some of our members....please respect it.Quote:

What I never understood is why people feel that they can't express themselves without using profanity.Quote:

I've noticed it too. It doesn't really bother me, but then I'm usually alone at home when I'm on this site..
I can certainly understand not wanting to see profanity online while at work. Not really an issue for me, though, as my screen sizing would necessitate someone quite literally leaning over my shoulder to read any such words...and I generally have these windows minimized if anyone else is in the immediate area anyway.
