Wrongful block by Bongolian[edit]

I was wrongfully blocked. I did not even break the 3rr. A warning would have been sufficient. The block was very excessive. I request that it be removed. @Bongolian. --Elz777 (talk) 03:55, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

We aren't Wikipedia, we don't have the 3RR. Can you do something productive and show us that you're not just a driveby concern troll? Plutocow (talk) 05:00, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

I honestly think that I was doing something constructive by cleaning up the site of profanity. I believe that the majority of people would believe the same. I really did want to help make this a better place. One of my strong suits is grammar. I would have really liked to fix this site’s grammar issues. As I said before in another comment, I believed that this site has great potential, but I am unsure as to whether or not I will continue to be active here because of the astonishingly low standards with profanity and my quick block. What really shocked me was that you guys stopped me from cleaning up the profanity. To use it is one thing, but to stop me from cleaning it up is another. I understand that you guys use it for emphasis or character, but you truly don’t need it. I truly believe that you all possess more than enough intelligence and a large enough vocabulary to express yourselves strongly without it. Eliminating it would make this site much more classy and family-friendly. My goal was long-term betterment of the site, but now, I am not sure if my energy would be best spent here. @Plutocow --Elz777 (talk) 03:27, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

RationalWiki is not a free-for-all, we do have rules of the road, such as our Civility page which is part of our general Community Standards. The Civility page does explain the differences between vulgarity and civility in detail. If you want to cleanse the world of profanity, then you want the No Cussing Club, not RationalWiki. We are dedicated to explaining the world in plain language and not euphemisms, and we have pages dedicated to profanity: bullshit, cunt and others. Bongolian (talk) 03:41, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
