How is “bc” cheating? It’s just a shortened version of a word.

Twosugars is a great member of this forum and there’s no need for you to call him out specifically on something as petty as this, especially when you post in the strange (and even more annoying and difficult to read than “bc”) that you do

he is a great poster

[thisisdanny]

I haven't seen what happened in the other thread, but it does sort of look like Arista is nit picking at TS and using any excuse me can to have a dig at him. Something as little as demanding a ban on using bc instead of because is probably the most childish thing I've seen on this forum tbh. There's been many ludicrous threads over the years but this is probably the worst.

[arista]

"and he wants to have a go at him"

No MATT
I am asking admin to rule on this
I like Twosugars

I think rather than pull TS upmi the other thread and make a big hoo Haa in that thread about it, arista has brought the subject of what is or not allowed on the forum into the correct area of the forum...like anyone can do and should do....everyone else is just teasing every one else while we wait on the mods to sort the question.

My name is Matthew so this is cheating.

Therefore I must make a thread to complain about it and I will specifically call you out in the OP and call for a change to the rules.

This is ridiculous

Yes you are Matthew.

Ant. is a Top Poster

Perfect.

Is it Monty Python?



Or is it a Text Spk question?

Don’t worry, I’ll note Arista’s intelligence in the OP :hee:

[Beso]

I can't work that out, but if you still think arista would call out Twosugars, or anyone else in this way....then we'll. .just well.

Imagine being offended about "bc" only a day after making several transphobic posts lol.

Not Valid

[thesheriff443]

We cant have a degradation of speech as its a bad example to set younger members who will be swayed to speak in a slovenly fashion making it hard for the older embers to comprehend.

This is even more key when we leave the EU in 2022

4 real.

I'm not only an ember, but I'm an old ember...how **** is that.

You only got death to look forward too. You going in the ground or up in smoke ?

Admin won't even permaban racists, what makes you think you're going to get any luck here arista :oh:

This is about "bc"

Not banning

Sea.

Polluting the ocean.

[Marsh.]

Maybe arista can stop with the casual sexism first?

[Amy Jade]

I'm sorry, but I'm with arista and his delightfully weird ways on this one..it's txt spk, and needs eradicating from the forum...or at least sd.

Well in that case I think you should not be using SD but calling it by it's proper name of serious debates. If you want bc gone I think it only fair you have the SD abbreviation eradicated too because it could cause confusion.

[Beso]

Polluting the ocean.

I shall be plastic free and feeding the fish.

[Marsh.]

Well in that case I think you should not be using SD but but serious debates. If you want bc gone I think it only fair you have to SD 'eradicating' too because it could cause confusion.

Not hypocrisy. Whatever next? :hehe:

[Beso]

Abbreviations are ok, and it is fairly obvious that SD means serious debate so it is used legally on this forum by intelligent posters to hurry the discussion along, it isn't used as a selfish tool of laziness like bc is when posters use it.

[Beso]

Isn't it b'cause anyway?

[Marsh.]

cuz

It means standard definition more widely actually.

Sexual dysfunction too :hee:

And is that what you think of when you see SD in a sentence on here?:shrug:

Well everyone understands "bc" in a sentence on here.

Context is magic.

Thats not the point of the discussion.:shrug:

[SherzyK]

I really don’t think it’s that hard to understand. It just depends on the person who’s reading it but then again I’m finding it hard to fathom that people don’t understand it, as well as wanting it to be banned. If the most racist thing on the forum doesn’t get censored, then how will this even be considered?

Yes, it literally is. You said abbreviations are ok when it's painfully fookin obvious what they are.

I meant arista original question but mistaken called it a discussion...I do apologise for making you swear.

No Arista....

Closing this bc its pointless.
