Just discovered you can't say the name of place on Reddit that spends a lot of time talking about this website.

What other words cant we say?

I was thinking of a different 3 letter acronym, one that relates to a paraphilia.

Oh sorry.

Just saying MM's name has never been bannable - it's the implying (or plain stating) that her parents had a role in the mystery that is "not in the spirit of the site". Note, I'm not saying they did! I'm explaining the actual offense.

The peak one suggests you can no longer believe a word of something.
As in, "That's it, I've peaked! I've heard it all now and I won't tolerate it any more!"

JaneJeffer · 23/08/2022 13:35

@SlappersAndFuiters the only one posting those things is you

It was because “peak oil” was a popular concept at the time hordes of us suddenly peaked about the other thing, I think.

I'd definitely jog by you @SlappersAndFuiters

HinchcliffeandMurgatroyd · 23/08/2022 13:37

What a delightful NN you have @SlappersAndFuiters

So eye catching and misogynistic.

Franca123 · 23/08/2022 13:38

I thought referring to the mystery paraphillia was OK now?

picklemewalnuts · 23/08/2022 13:38

That's not right though is it, Slappers? We don't say stuff like that. If anyone did it would be deleted. Including you.

What we do discuss is that safeguarding exists for a reason, and that safeguarding can't be circumvented for the convenience of some people, no matter how nice those people are.
We discuss how weakening safeguarding procedures makes abuse much easier.
We discuss women's legal rights to single sex spaces.

If you insist on linking any of that to trans rights, well that's on you.

“Which words are now censored on here?”

Surely this is an oxymoron? If words are censored, then we can’t name them, and if we do name them, our post will be deleted, as they are censored words! (Hope that makes sense).

What are Flappers and Suiters? It's a miss from me, as I don't get it. Fully accept I'm not up on cultural references.

Exactly that's why for the first one I said the place on reddit that spends their life reading here

Yes I can see that you’d need to reference slippers because if the dearth of available usernames. I had the same problem last NC <heavy sarcasm>

I think it’s a century-old cultural reference.

JaneJeffer · 23/08/2022 13:42

Only the really bad ones are removed
Who on this thread has multiple posts deleted? Oh yes it's you.

TwoLeftSocksWithHoles · 23/08/2022 13:44

@purple12345678

Are you going to work through the book 'Filthy English' (currently available on Ebay for around three pounds) until you find all the which words you can't use on here?

I hope so, as there's nothing really on telly I want to watch!

This response needs to join ‘did you mean to be so rude’ as a terrible response. It isn’t cutting and scathing and biting, acerbic wit. It’s just really rude.
