I just want to send out a message to all members that there is a rule against offensive and vulgar language on this forum. (Rule #2) for some reason this is not being heeded and we have had to discipline some members over this over the last few months. This offensiveness does include trying to use partial curse words like having ** in part of the word or using abbreviations of a cursing phrase. I do not care if you use this language in real life, as I am sure we all have at one time or another. However there is no need for it here. Express your dislikes and issues in a post but let's all try and leave out every form of offensive and vulgar words, partial offensive language words, and/or abbreviations of a cursing phrases.

Please review any pictures or videos you may post as well for vulgar/offensive content as these too will not be permitted and would be removed by the GRF Management team.

Please review our board rules in this link...... http://www.goldenretrieverforum.com/faq.php?faq=vb_faq#faq_chatagreement

Thank you for your understanding in this matter.

Reminder to everyone about Rule #2- the use of offensive language and Abbreviated forms of offensive words. A few posts have recently had to been edited for offensive content.

The Forum System has a built in Censor and will replace offensive content with (***). When abbreviations are used or characters such as $$ or * are used, the Mod Team has to manually edit these posts.

The Forum has a "G" Rating because it is viewed by members and guests of all ages from all over the World. In order to maintain the "G" rating, offensive language and content is not allowed. This also pertains to Videos and pictures that are posted.


GRF Board Rules & Registration Agreement | Golden Retriever Dog Forums (goldenretrieverforum.com)

Rule #2-

2. GoldenRetrieverForum.com Members shall refrain from the use of vulgar language and obscenities. – We recognize no individual word used, in and of itself, can constitute a moral evil alone but rather it’s when words are assembled into sentences that form ideas that it has the potential to become truly offensive and vulgar. However certain individual words are nevertheless considered highly offensive to the majority of the English language speakers and in recognition of this fact, a small list of those words are maintained and that can be only accessed by GRF Administrators, and will be used to identify and assist in keeping those highly offensive words from appearing on the forum. Any attempt to bypass the board filter of vulgar words by manipulating a word so as to have a form of it appear on the board may result in sanctions against your account from the GRF management team. Keep in mind that many words which are usually quite innocent, can also be used in a vulgar fashion. Thus many individual words not contained on the list per se will have to be assessed as to their offensive nature by actual usage by the GRF Management team. Pictures that are openly posted onto GRF that contain offensive vulgar language or obscenities will not be permitted as well. Any such pictures posted will be reviewed and/or removed by the GRF Management team. Any links to another web site posted onto GRF that are reported to have vulgar, obscene or offensive language or pictures may also be removed.
