Any other issue is fine to post about but if you manipulate linguistically when the opening post isn't your real concern at all, be prepared to be taken to task.

7. I got a warning for the word 'in-fighting' |
|
But I wont say how I used it....but I will say, it didnt sit well with the folks in GD: Democratic primary 2004.
And my second warning was because I posted an Onion article with an 'f' word in it...a derogetory homosexual term....so I dont recommend doing that either.

It doesn't matter. It's what's on the inside that counts. (that's why Britney Spears is an h-word.)
