Watch Out Here Folks!!!!

Ok, I just saw some stuff in more then a few places here in the forums and alot in games recently that is just plain out of line!

I have an 8 yr old and a 13 yr old who play TT, as do alot of other patrons here who have younglings.
You "grown-ups" MUST WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE!
And if you're an adolescent using that type of language GO EAT A BAR OF SOAP THIS MINUTE!
Don't bi-pass the word filters with creative typing...it's going to get you a ticket to a vacation from PTT2.
If you have a beef with someone, take it up by telephone, email, IM, or somewhere private where you can get dirty if you feel the need.
If you have to swear and curse like a drunken sailor, then do it in the dungeon if you have access, otherwise KEEP IT TO YOURSELF!

On another note...there's some new members here that are really getting on my last nerve with the forum spamming.
Here's a few examples of forum spamming:
Posting back to back to back, posting 1,2 or 3 word replies, posting in threads that are 1 year dead, and posting replies that make absolutely no sense at all or are completely off topic.

Above all THINK BEFORE YOU POST!

I'm going to close my eyes for 48 hrs and when I open them anyone I see spamming these forums is also going to get on that one way ticket out of here for a while.

For all the rest of you TT'rs that abide by decency, speak up when you see stuff like this happening instead of going into sheep mode, or tell someone who can do something about it, okay? Thanks!

We're not here to drive people away, but we certainly aren't going to keep members or gain new ones if we can't get the lid on this swearing, alias confusions, and forum spam.

^ "Sheep mode" means you basically don't do anything, and don't speak up, like sheep. I hope Baba won't get mad...
Good post doc, hopefully this will reduce cussing/spam.

Doc,
Just say "PULL" when it's time to deploy the Napalm. It been a while since I went on a "crackdown" spree. I could certainly use the time to hone my skills f you know what I mean.

And if you don't have access... Then why are you even doing it in the first place?

Actually I think it would be a great idea to let you crackdown on some of the explicit talkers out there. I've had some really bad experiences with someone called "a box of startch" and I ended up getting in trouble. Personaly, I think that would be a great idea.
