Title: Reporting Omollo To The Admin and Moderator. Urgent.
Post by: jakoyo on September 23, 2014, 03:25:35 PM
Dear Veritas and Parkapen,

In serious contravention of the board rules , a blogger by the name Omollo has initiated a post with a vulgar title. RV Pundit concurs with me that it was in apropriate to use such heading.

It is my humble appeal to you to begin neccesary disciplinary proceeding against him.

Kind Regards

Jakoyo.

Why can't you just wait for the admin and moderator to rule on this ? If you are called upon to defend your choice of words , then you can quote all those online dictionaries.  You cannot always be the judge , jury and executioner.

Fucking up is the same as cock up.  It's a common phrase to mean screwing up something.

I just noticed this now and I don't think I'm ok with this. Please folks, at least put a hyphen between f and c. If more folks keep swearing then we may have to censor certain blasphemies.

Omollo's use of the phrase does not meet the threshold of obscenities, personal attacks on members, stalking, and that kind of thing.  We should only moderate intent.  Not words, or phrases.  The same words can be used in contexts that break the rules.  In any case, I am still surprised anyone finds the use of this particular phrase, even noteworthy.

I haven't heard Omollo swear ever. It's surprising. I do agree about intent and purposes though.

Jakoyo,
He has already apologized, and will try not to overdo it.
In my opinion the threshold has not been met in this case. The context in which he used a curse word is tolerable.

Parkerpen: lol Why are you defending Omollo....instead of a vote, lets have a commission chaired by be.....you can  be part of the commission. So Veritas will appoint a commision chaired by me, and you will be member. We will decide how to deal with Omollo. Are you game?
