that's a good point. Especially if what 'lefty woke liberals' want, when added up will probably be many times UK govt income. its better sold as 'preserving heritage, wildlife and beauty of UK' than some special interest group wanting taxpayer money to maintain their lifestyle.

I have heard american boomers using LOL for 'lots of love'(as in: so sorry your pet rabbit died, LOL)

I think its WTF ... for 'What the F'

moderating is hard, one needs to use judgement while being impartial. You dont want to be too harsh, else you will drive away traffic to rival forums. But you also dont want it to be free for all. Also its an unpaid job. which is why I hardly ever get upset about moderators, they are doing their best, am sure.

i have been notified for using f-word, probably forum software flagged. I am a fan of using f-word as qualifier. Anyway, I do want a crackdown on personal attack, no matter how tempting it is, one should not do it and consider it as weakness of character.(and we do fail time to time, its a failure nevertheless) However its so prevalent on this forum, we probably need a start date of such enforcement. Otherwise people will complain, 'why did you not act upon xyz comment posted 2 days ago'?

I think personal attack have never been enforced, but it should. No view on bad language, some of them do add colour to conversation.
