The Swearing Thread

I hardly ever swear when I speak German.

 

English people always want me to teach them German swear words and I honestly don't know that many (that you could actually use without sounding completely ridiculous anyway). Maybe it's just me though. People didn't really swear where I lived.

 

Didn't you live in Swissland though? Emotions don't exist there, so swearing isn't usual.

I suppose that's fair, I will edit the thread post.

 

Also, constantly being encouraged to do everything by PM is a little bit like "we dont want people to see complaints about us". When I was a mod we had a freaking forum for it, so that decisions we made are scrutinised and judged, instead of being shut away in PM boxes.

 

It wasn't really like that. I don't mind if people complain if they have a good reason for it . The first step would be to contact a member of the crew via PM to see why certain action was taken. I understand if you thought that i removed /edited a post without explaining myself to the person affected but i did via PM and that person understood why i did it and had no problems with me cos i was just doing my job.

 

However, i have a problem when people hear rumours like " wow, a mod deleted a post just because it had a swear word in it!"and then mock us for that. If the rumours were true, we'd have to remove more than 100 posts everyday but this wasn't the case.

 

I gave a reason to the people involved (in private and even in public ) and i also let all the other mods know that i edited a post and i think that was more than enough. I'm just asking you to be fair and talk to us directly ( i could've told you what actually happened and why i edited that) instead of paying attention to the rumours. Not even the person involved directly had a problem with that so i don't know what's the big deal but i felt i had to say something and be clear here.

 

Anyway, i hope it's all good now and back to topic :wacko:

 

Since this thread is about swearing and english isn't really my first language, i have to say that i didn't know that the word c...t was really that offensive to some people :wreck:

Yay! So I can gibber off in a stream of Chinese dialect foul words?

Yep. Emotions do exist obviously but you're right, most Swiss people don't really show them.

That's tragic that you have to deal with such rumours, but trying to keep everything locked away from us instead of leaving your decisions out in the open- that's why rumours start in the first place.

 

Look at the point of Mark getting a thread removed because it didn't suit him to have it on this forum, there was no place for us to discuss why it was removed and why that was a reasonable thing to do.

 

Ren I kindof understand what you did, but honestly, I swear and be offensive to people on here and that get's ignored, so in my opinion I don't see why sometimes its allowed and sometimes it's edited (I'm not the only one who does it).

FUCK U EM

Apparently, one of my closest friends had never heard me use the F-bomb until the other day, so I ended up freaking him out. It was rather amusing.

Yay! So I can gibber off in a stream of Chinese dialect foul words?

 

FUN FACT: The Japanese language is so polite there are no swear words, so they just switch to Chinese whenever they want to curse.

puta la wea.

Hi Violet :nice:

 

I never say those things in spanish though :uhoh:

Is this to say you only curse in English?

 

To be fair, that's the only language in which I really know (and use) any sort of foul language.

I don't curse really, not in spanish, not in english... sometimes I use swear words in spanish but just when I'm drunk or something like that. It's not like I don't like people who does it but I'm just not used to it.

 

oh and when I miss the bus I swear a lot too but no one can hear me :P

puta la wea.

 

Thank you once again! :lips:

You're a great teacher. :awesome:

Thank you once again! :lips:

You're a great teacher. :awesome:

 

I think that's only used in Chile :uhoh: (instead of wea peruvians use "huevada" I think :P), If we meet I can teach you more words :awesome:

Teach me some insults in Peruvian Spanish, please. :lips:

Ren needs to do that, I don't know enough peruvian insults D:

He doesn't want to ... chicken. :disappointed:

Ren taught me some but I forgot them.
