Talk to mods section.

It would be nice to have a talk to mods section. I have questions but I think pm'ing every single mod is needed.

With that said, my question is why I got an infraction for profanity but there is a swear filter in place and there is nothing in the posted rules about profanity. When given a reason for the infraction, it was that I violated the rules.

These are the rules that I have found:

mcarterbrown.com - FAQ

Did I miss the rule somewhere pertaining to profanity?


Also, I am confused to why I got an infraction when I see other members and even some moderators cuss from time to time.

The post I made was in a thread that is now locked and also had 3 other moderators that posted after my post and no action was taken. If the profanity that was said was indeed a violation of the rules as said, why wasn't it address properly at the time ?


I'm not "crying" here, I just want to know why. It doesn't really make sense to me at all. Thanks.

Yup.. We may need something like that. No, you didn't miss anything in the rules. For the swearing, that wasn't really your fault, I did not have the "swear filter" set up correctly to catch all words, so that was really my bad.

I've sent you a PM.

I have to dissagree, the swear filter, or so I've always thought, was a defense of the site to alter swear words, not a pass on the poster to swear all they want. if the swear filter missed a word I think it's still the fault of the person who typed the word in the first place. as most sites I've been to have rules about avoiding the swear filter.

She and others were the victims of the most recent "B inquisition". That's sort of like the Spanish Inquisition, but without any discernible sense of humor.

With the amount of reports she could have been Harbinated. However, Carter and I discussed an alternative solution.

Yeah.. I don't like getting multiple reports about one single person that's a member. Harb let me know what's up via pm.
