    In a realistic business setting whether it be in a business setting or a casual business setting would you still use the word. No. Keep in mind you are in a business setting whether formal or in informal.

    Potty Mouth is not O.K. if you got an infraction. There are kids on this forum and many more that are just visitors per say. Chop it up as lesson learn.

    LOL..i just raised a teenager and i had experience from watching her and friends communicate together. All you can hear was the F**k word over and over...that doesn't sound so good even when it comes for adults. Answering your question. No i don't have prejudice against kids..only the kids potty mouth.:p

    Hum, definitelly not. The closest word is "fac", which is prononced almost the same but it means college.

    Enjoy :p

    I have to say I completely agree with the moderators giving you an infraction. There are some people including myself that may be offended by the use of inappropriate language. Why use language that may offend some people when there are so many different words to use which can much more accurately describe the way you are feeling. Don't be lazy and just think "Oh I'll use the F word". Be creative next time you feel angry about something.

    That would be like me shooting someone and then asking to be forgiven because I was having a bad day. (Sorta)

    Its all about choice and consequence; You chose to disobey the rules and as a consequence you received an infraction. End of story.

    Really if you think about this. This is not an ordinary forum. This is a business forum that conducts business. You really do not find that kind of language found in business meetings do you? In a more personal meeting or setting yes. But not in a business relate matter.

    So remember who you are, and where you are at. This should not be anything new, or anything taught. Everyone knows there is a place and a time for everything, including language.

    If you want a potty mouth forum. Go to one. There is always an appropiate forum forum for such language and attitudes.
