One little mistake

Ok my post from yesterday was in poor taste. I made a mistake.

I edited this because it was a knee-jerk reaction by me. The warning was warranted as was the deletion of the thread. I apologize for dropping the f-bomb if it offended anyone. My fault, my mistake. Not appropriate.

I make 1 mistake and the next one I'm gone! I'll tell you what I'm outta here for awhile, that way I can't make another mistake (accidental post), post in poor taste, whatever you want to call it. I certainly understand the reprimand, it's warranted, but to say 1 more and I'm gone..................It's been fun

    its a special situation when the title of the thread is the friggin f bomb dude. Justin has to act. its not even like he could pretend to miss it. take a couple days. chill and do what feels best to ya. hope ya come back.

    gotta remember though this is a corporate sight, and the big F bomb was probably what made this so egregious in the eyes of Justin (the almighty) :D

    I got a pm from Justin too. I'm gonna have to side with Justin, though. I did drop the F bomb, and I know I'm not supposed to. Calm down dude. Don't let it get to you. Just don't start threads with word f*** in them. ;):D

    Don't worry about it Heiny......there's a lot of little babies here on the board that are so hypersensitive that they will piss and moan about every little thing to Justin, but not to the person they want to stop using such words.

    These people need to learn how to address people that they're in disagreement with like adults rather than running like little 3 year olds to mommy or daddy.

    Rock on, and I say EFF THEM!!!!!!!

    it's not a good idea to post when you're intoxicated or whatever... F bombs come out thru your fingers to easily. Do what i do.. and sleep it off till the next day... then post minus the f word.

    hope you stick around H9

    We all experience discretionary lapses from time to time.
    I can't tell you how many times I've woken up feeling like an idiot because I remember a conversation or event from the night before that I wish I could just make go away.

    In the body of a message, not a huge deal....but as mentioned before, when it's the title of the thread, it's not appropriate. Rock on soldier.

    I most certainly agree it wasn't appropriate, but we all make mistakes, and I'm sure they're a little easier to make when intoxicated.

    That word shouldn't be used on a public forum anyway. Eff it. There should be an automatic filter anyway. For example, that word should automatically be changed to "I'm perplexed at" when viewing.

    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore
