Crazy the amount of swearing in this forum

(1/17) > >>

First time last week checking out this forum, and it's sad to see the amount of swearing in here.
Swearing shows a lack of self-discipline. It also shows a lack of respect for other people - especially if they are strangers.
When did it become the norm for people to use such language because they can't think of a better word.  It's part of the reason this whole world is in the crapper.

Even worse when the moderator does not enforce the rules.

Jackster:
It is a fucking disgrace

Stray Electron:
  Dammed right!

DavidAlfa:
It's a bit of everything.
Things showing a full lack of respect, laziness and zero fcks given:

- Not to use the search in first place, instead simply ask the same thing 184748 times. Use the damn search.

- Ask something, make people spend its time at you, and just disappear afterwards. At least show a little of gratitute  to your F** free helpers, how about thanks?

- Messages like "not compiling", "circuit not working", "what's this component", providing no code, no pictures, or a terrible fuzzy image. Take the same effort back.

Otherwise I f***ng swear the forum is actually a pretty nice place.

The fact that the moderators do not have to step in very often shows that the members have a lot of self-discipline. I have been on this forum for over a year and a half now and I like it very much. Not like any other forums where people are at each others throats. Sure there is a bit of foul language now and then, but who gives a f___ when it is just a bit of harmless scuffle between some members. When it gets out of hand there is always another member who cools things down or calls in the cavalry >:D

And when you don't like it, there is no one forcing you to read it or even to join this forum.
