Friends, Goans, Cybernetters: A couple of years ago, in one of my posts on goanet, I quoted a message that I had received from someone; and, as the quoted message contained the word "ba***rd", I was rebuked by one of the coordinators for using foul language. I pressed my case and, if I remember well, Marlon stood by me, gave me reason and allowed my post to pass. Now I see Alfred using the same word in his message (see below) and his post was passed by the coordinators. Has there been a liberalisation of the decency standards followed by goanet?
