swearing

why do people always swear in chat? i find it to be rude. —Preceding unsigned comment added by ILoveBeyonceForeverAndEver (talk • contribs)

The ruleset for Chat is loosely based off the ruleset for IRC. Where profanity isn't allowed at all on-wiki, IRC rules are more relaxed on this, and by extension so is Chat, meaning it's allowed on those two mediums in moderation. There's, in my opinion, no point having two different rulesets for both Chat and IRC meaning any changes we make to one should count for the other.

If you want to start a formal discussion about this then you're more than welcome to so but what I said above is basically my two pence worth on this. Lost Labyrinth

To add to Lab's response, for a short-term solution it's always possible to ask the user if they could stop. --Bleeh^(talk) ^(blog) 15:22, June 9, 2013 (UTC)

i asked for it to stop as its rude and gahsicepick says in reply "i can f*****g swear if i f*****g want to". —Preceding unsigned comment added by ILoveBeyonceForeverAndEver (talk • contribs)

If you have a problem with a specific user, then message an admin on their talk page, PM the user in Chat (by clicking on their name and then choosing "Private Message") and talk about it with them privately, or go on the IRC channel and talk to an administrator there. If you need more help, feel free to message me on my talk page. --Bleeh^(talk) ^(blog) 19:02, June 9, 2013 (UTC)

cant you deal with it now as i have already said i have a problem with specific user.—Preceding unsigned comment added by ILoveBeyonceForeverAndEver (talk • contribs) 18:42, June 11, 2013 (UTC) - Please sign your comments with ~~~~

GAHSIcepick did not break any rules, so there is nothing left to "deal with." I spoke with him about swearing and he said that if he is asked politely, he will stop. I think that's all we need to do here. Again, if you feel swearing should be completely eliminated, you need to propose something formally, as Lost Labyrinth suggested.

And on an unrelated note - you need to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). In the future, any unsigned comments you make will be deleted. -- LostInRiverview^{talk ~ blog} 19:03, June 11, 2013 (UTC)
