    You make a good point and we do need to be consistent on the site. The problem as you suggest is linking to other social media without an easy method of removing content which would otherwise be blocked on here. We'll look into it and see what can be done to make it more consistent.

    We should be allowed to swear and have banter.

    The language on TCA is filth. The modding is nothing short of embarrassing. The admin over there should hang their heads in shame.

    Does 13 have Facebook, Instagram, twitter, xbox live, Snapchat, tiktok etc?

    There's swearing all over those platforms. It's just words. People know when it's appropriate, kids included.

    Bring back the poop emoji, best fun this place has ever seen. Or was it the old place? Can't remember. The scenes of people losing their shit over, ironically, a shit emoji was very amusing.

    It wasn't just the link though Dennis, it's been retweeted first so it wasn't just a content blocking issue.

    Whoever is running the Twitter page needs to either align it to the forum completely or have a chat amongst yourselves and decide to relax the forum rules to suit.

    Different site, different context. It doesnt claim to be something it isnt and no one is forced to use it.

    Personally, I dont mind bad language as long as it isnt directed at some on a personal basis.

    We all do KK. However, as everyone should know, right time, right place. In the workshop with the lads, but not in front of children and ladies (or on here where all types of people read/comment)

    I don't recall any restriction on banter per se on here so long as it isn't offensive or abusive or designed simply to wind somebody up.

    Have a look here if you wish to remind yourself ...

    It's context though. You largely ban swearing on a forum for the simple fact that it's often used in 'inappropriate' ways that are designed to antagonise. It's there to help the mods basically. The software can't understand context so it just blocks everything

    If you are unhappy with the content of a post and you think it goes beyond the norms of BT, then there is the ‘report’ box in each post footer. Just use that facility. We often get material referred through. Not very hard to do.

    You're wrong, it wasn't in a post on the match thread. I've stated that more than once.

    It's also still there on the main page of the forum if you care to have a look so clearly it wasn't put there by a member but by one of the admin team.
