Can we get one thing straight?

[The Don]

In films, in the cinema, a 12 A (a film which can be viewed by 12 year olds + on their own, or 11 and younger with an adult. In films which are rated 12a, swearing is allowed. The film, xmen first class, has a cameo with wolverine, in which he tells the main characters to *REMOVED* off. This is because, in a 12a, the f word is allowed to be used ONCE.

Now, in the video I posted, it has the f word, once. If we are catering to the younger audiences, 12 onwards, why are we being more strict than the bbfc. Correct me if I'm wrong, but you need to be 12/13 to play habbo? so there is no reason I should have had a warning for that video, which was a tame music video which contained one swear word.

I made this thread separate to richies to draw attention to this point.

if you have a problem with a warning or a infraction then use the proper way... people posting in feedback about their petty problems is boring now :rolleyes: </thread>

No it isn't? It's good feedback and can open up the issue for the community to see what they think. It's annoying when threads are pointlessly removed to the Complaints forum when the issue is up to community debate to see what they think - especially when the Complaints Forum is a tiny bit pointless anyway (basically it's a feedback/ask the forum staff hybrid forum).

That said, did you warn people that there was swearing? A 12A may contain swearing, but the BBFC and films must mention why the film is 12A e.g. swearing, mild sexual content etc. If you posted had a warning e.g. "Video Contains Swearing" then it's usually fine.

you obviously aren't bored since your still here?

and me getting the warning was what made me decide to create the thread, yes, but the warning is irrelevant.

It's good feedback if it's handled in the proper manner and posted in the thread that's already been made, instead of making a new thread.

yeh, that's fine, but hiding the video in a spoiler is pretty pointless. Also, they don't mention the swearing at the start of the film, you have to go on to the website to find out all that information.

The other thread, if we're referring to the same one, is about something else and therefore I don't see why he should have to post this issue in that thread.
