"And what do you mean by your second statement? Cute little characters? I’d be happy to come right out and say what I want to say, but I’d probably get the ZOT. Temperance is a more polite option, I think."

The more polite option and, might I add, the option that shows the most respect for this forum and its members, is to choose your words more carefully. Spelling the word with special characters is no different that spelling it out correctly. This is not like lesser fora where that language is the norm.

If you want to use that language in your personal life, fine. But I ask that you show more respect for FR. (you might notice that your original comment has been removed by the moderator)

Then the moderator did your job for you. To continue to harp on strong language is pointless.

Sometimes it’s necessary to break out alternative verbiage to express frustration.

Call it a “swear” or an “adult” word. My intent was to impart both.
