Arguing with a moderator strikes me as a bad idea.

 It it is clear in the title of the thread that dirty stuff isn't wanted there, you shouldn't post dirty stuff there.   Its not an unreasonable request.

It should be clear to you guys that making a "NO DIRTY TALK ALLOWED" thread in this part of the Internet is begging for HotRod types to talk dirty.

Don’t do drugs, unless you’re with me.

It was a joke, take it easy. I'm as much a joker as you. I just engage less than you do. 

Plus, the joke I made was in the first "Good News" thread. In the "No Dirty Talk Good News" I made a non-dirty joke, setting up your great dirty joke.

Anyway whatever, you're all fags anyway.

Don’t do drugs, unless you’re with me.

 ok, so how should we make thread that:

1. makes it clear dirty talk is not wanted here

and

2. doesn't beg the hotrod types to talk dirty

?

I really didn't want to get into this, and I don't care if talk gets dirty or not, but it may be wise if you really really really want to avoid dirty talk to find a child board or a moderated board somewhere instead of the un-moderated off-topic section of a SW board...

A board full of kids would have more even more filthy talk than this. ;)

 or people here could act like mature considerate adults.  No one is asking people to not post dirty stuff in the off topic section,   what I am merely asking that you don't in threads where the title makes it clear it is not desired.  I fail to see why that is unreasonable.

 You need to take a look at Darth Ender's original good news thread.

You know, I get irritated every time I read these stupid jokes, but the nature of HotRod's joke (the disrespect towards his wife in particular) and the timing of it, just a few posts after my heartfelt post about my children and the very important recent event in my life (the birth of my daughter) just was too much.  I get really tired of the immaturity on these forums.  It's a serious lack of respect when people post this crap everywhere.  I mean, if folks are justified in getting offended because someone sells a different make of Glock in Pima County months after Gabrielle Giffords was shot with a Glock, I think I have room to get offended because I devoted a thread to good news and a particular post to some of the most heartfelt feelings I've shared on the net, only to have it shared with a filthy post and a guy who thinks I'm the jerk because I don't like what he had to say.  I'm happy to let it go.  I usually ignore the immaturity from others of you as it is.  But that was pretty low in my mind, and I feel the need to share at least why it bugs me so much.  Those of you who contribute to it (DuracellEnergizer, Antcufaalb, Leonardo, Bingowings, DominicCobb, Neglify I think), I am disappointed that you feel that this little chuckle is more worthy of defending and in fact deserving of further joking.  I get it, it's the Internet, but I always figured we at least had some sort of mutual respect going here where we tried to honor people's feelings on matters in at least some instances.  I'm sorry so many don't see it that way.

Truth is, I try not to talk dirty too often on this forum, and the last time I did, I did it

A. To mock the content of hotrod's original post, which I felt was disrespectful and distasteful myself.

and

B. In a fashion that I felt wasn't too raunchy/vulgar. Believe me, if I really wanted to be nasty, I could easily use phrases and descriptions which would make hotrod's look like the pure and chaste writings of an asexual choir boy by comparison.

If it bothers you guys that much, though, then I'll be careful to avoid doing so in the future.

For me it isn't the vulgarity and crassness that really bugs me, but the disrespect of other people (more than just the way HotRod refers to his wife, but also the fact that he isn't respecting the creator of the good news threads, or their purpose).
