Friends,
Here is an example of my proposal.
Poster A posts
Hey evrybody, how about if we have a sky-diving club here of babblers?
Poster B writes,
Skydiving is bullcr*p.(the poster does not use the star)
Poster C posts a request for a determination on what poster B posted as to if it is acceptable or not in relation to the guidlines of the forum
Dr. Hsiung writes back and asks the poster, C, what the foundation is to allow the request.
Poster C cites the clause about not posting language that could offend others.
Now here I would tend to think that a discussion about this has a proper foundation , for a resonable person could think that the word is in the catagory of {language that could offend others}.
Then Dr. Hsiung writes back,
I see that it could invoke your inquierey, but my thinking is that that word does not fall into the catagory {here} of language that could offend others.
Or Dr. Hsiung could agree with the poster.
Either way, the poster could have thought that he needed to know Dr. Hsiung's thinking and had a foundation to ask.
