I was replying only to your original statement, that there are 'plenty' of people who use foul language on FR. Since there have been thousands upon thousands that have posted here since 2004 or even 2007, to say that there is 'plenty' here that use profanity I deem incorrect when you consider the large number of people allowed to post on this site.

If you bothered to read and understand my following posts I said there are occasional words that obviously you would expect to slip through, mods can't catch it all, that's what the abuse button is for, yet I have never seen the 'F' word, the 'S' word or GD word slip through in all this time, which would get no argument from me that there should be zero tolerance for those particular words on this site and obviously there is, however because your post seemed to imply that FR is a profanity-ridden site where you would see such words, therefore to be considered a hate site would be understandable, well I take exception to that, only someone from DU would try to make that claim in essence smearing FR, that's why I asked you. Or you could be just a relative of O'Reilly.

You are wrong. Your post saying “not true” was in response to my comment #8 saying that there were curse words on FR. Here is it. My comment and the replies to my comment.

You will find curse words here.

“You will find curse words here.”

Depends on ones’ idea of curse words. Some people get their undies in a wad over words like “damn.”

No I have already explained that my post was only correcting an incorrect statement that there were NO curse words on FR. I didn’t say it was profanity ridden. I have seen plenty of posters using profanity. What you consider profanity is different than what I consider profanity obviously. I have seen a FEW uses of the f and the s word. I have seen numerous uses of the other words that I posted.
I would never consider FR a hate site. I love FR and in fact FR and Facebook are my main uses for the internet You have assigned motivations to me that I do not possess.
