would the person that deleted my joke care to pm me why or make it public if you wish.

Hi Mick,

If it's any consolation, I for one wasn't offended. And it even made me chuckle. Dunno why it would have been deleted. (Perhaps it was too tame.)

Brian.

It was me Mick and I've moved it to the moderators forum for discussion as it violates the TOS.

1. Inappropriate Material
It can be expected that children as young as 15 may visit the forums. Please don't post material that would not be appropriate for a 15 year old.

I'm flat out at work at the moment and didn't get a chance to pm you.
Hope you understand.

Moderately removed?

mick pinner · #5 10-03-2006, 07:42 PM

thanks for the reply Andrew although l do not agree.

It was a borderline one, Andrew was merely erring on the side of caution.

While it wasn't outrightly explicit, it did have those conitations

l personally would not post a joke that l thought would upset my 15 y.o son, sorry if anyone was offended.

Good point Mick P. However, we do have members who are around 10 y.o., so a revision of the TOS may be appropriate at this point.

Pays to be extreeeeeeeemely careful. Might be some shrinks viewing too

Well, my 12 year old enjoyed it. Dunno where your kids go to school but most 10 year olds I see (and I work with them professionally) know more about sex, genitalia and scatological humour than Shane Warne.

I was thinking the same thing, they can swear like troopers.

janoskiss (Steve H) · #12 11-03-2006, 01:39 AM

Yes, the kids would probably love it. It's their parents who might not like it.

I appreciate everyone’s views and the initial question was answered.
Therefore, so we don't end up sparking a debate on the subject, I've locked the thread.
