But in my mind, I don't think any of us (or I) will even suggest our kids, someone who is known, a close relative or friends who is not adult yet to join the forum.

You will be surprised the kids will find the forum by themselves. This is possible that they may use some bitcoin keywords in their search and they will be redirected here. They will sign up with unknown username and keep interacting with you here Grin
It's possible but thing is I am not introducing it to them as long as they are under age.

If I discover the account and see s/he is really into learning bitcoin and the technology then I will feel proud for them but if I see they are building the account just to earn from the signature campaign then I will be disappointed. I will like them (suggest and help) to learn a skill and educate them first before even thinking to earn some pocket money. When he will master a skill then he will never have an issue with money.

I actually used the link Op provided to see how offensive the said post of Soko was but te link was not directly targeting the post. I had to scroll down and there was nothing offensive said by Soko.

Some people can't even speak in the real life because of shyness, the only place they pour out their mind to say things is on the social media and it really hurt when they are being attacked with offensive words.  Some people can bear been attacked but it is not easy with some people endure it.

In different dimensions it may happen. Some could also be people who don't find love and kindness in the real world. They came online for refugee and unfortunately they are bashed here too.

They're just words and only you can let them effect or hurt you. Just ignore anything you deem offensive.
Some people are too emotional that they let a national broadcast by Putin put them in perpetual fear in their own country not Russia.

I'm beginning to take every word in the forum as a normal word and I'm getting use to it because I have come to understand that everybody can't be the same when it comes to manner of response. The forum is a community which it can't be possible to expect pleasant comments from everybody.

And the earlier you start accepting the replies and responses of community members to your post or reply the better for because in order for you to grow here people must surely critized or should I correct you and only people who don't want to grow can always feel correction is some kind of abuse or insult.

Since everyone has different names and ways of thinking, I don't see why someone's opinion should be a problem. Likewise, when someone uses inappropriate language, we shouldn't take it personally and should overlook any statement we find objectionable. Since we don't know one another and this is just a discussion board, it will be simpler to overlook an offending post.

Like saying a person's post is nonsense or is of no use like this post made by a newbie
with SOKO- DEKE  saying it is nonsense  https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/dads-retirement-money-is-invested-in-bitcoin-5454681
Please let us be more polite when making post or replying posts
I don't see any offensive words here op, SOKO-DEKE just gave words of advice so that the person will not involve in regret when his plan fail. Don't create a topic if you know you can defend yourself when question arising or when people start correcting your mistakes by commenting on your topic.

I don't suggest it for another reason: privacy.

We have gambling sub-board, there are no rules need to mention that one doesn't need to be 18+
Agreed. But kids could just skip those boards, just like they can skip many other gambling websites.

I don't think I will encourage my girl to read what I write, not at least she become 18 or at least adult enough to handle the world of adults.
I won't encourage it, but if my kids find their way to a Bitcoin forum online, I'd be proud Smiley
I'm pretty sure there are much more dangerous websites than Bitcointalk. I already teach my kids not to use their real name (in games), and they use email addresses without any personal information for registration. When they're a bit older, I'll add the dangers of the internet to the list. I can't wait until they're 18 to release them into the wild, they need to learn, and the best time to do so is while they're young.
In public schools and the free world of the internet, we have no boundary for anything. I have seen kids not even 12 years (both) old, if my guess is not so wrong, are kissing openly like we adult do with our spouse when making love, as they don't care what's around them. A young kid of a close relative started to live with his boyfriend, left his parents, cut off all connections with everyone in the family tree does not surprise me too. Other day in gambling discussion I heard about this sex competition. All of it do not feel right but there are no way to deny too. I don't know how much I will be able to protect my children from all these uncomfortable events we witnessed but I am trying to provide the best I can for her to grow up safely.

How is this still Meta related? I'm not sure Tongue "Offensive words" are difficult for kids, it's so easy for them to take it personal. But still, school is much worse than Bitcointalk.
None of it now meta related between you and me LOL. It's sounds like two father (If you have no dispute that you are the mother 🤣) is having discussion or what they do and don't want to see in their children to do with Bitcointalk until they become adult. We both need to shut up now LOL

The forum is for 18+.
Since when? I haven't seen this anywhere, and it wouldn't make sense for an anonymous forum.
The last part I agree LOL. There are no way to verify the age.

So TMAN has left the forum for something, some kind of repentance or epiphany from God?
Unlikely:
Okay I made up the stuff about Tman having a religious awakening/ becoming a goat herder etc. I know, hard to believe being so plausible as it was. I have reached out to this fucker indirectly just to make sure he’s okay and that much I can confirm. I was told he’d be back around before long to call me a proper cunt and other pleasantries (as I do miss that).

The forum is for 18+.

The forum is for 18+. You need a legal guardian.

He needs to be enlightened that this is a discussion forum and we agree to disagree when we sign up here maybe OP is in seminary and is not accustomed to this kind of environment, I've checked the member he is complaining and it's not even offensive words, what if he encounters real offensive words he may leave and take a vacation for being soft and only come back when he is ready.

I don't understand why you find SOKO-DEKE's post reply offensive. SOKO-DEKE was explaining to @fuso. hp why he shouldn't utilize his father's retirement funds to invest in Bitcoin due to how unpredictable and unsafe doing so can be. I couldn't find any instances of his using foul language in the post.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.62335452

Having said that, read a post carefully before forming an inaccurate opinion on it.

We don't know where TMAN has gone since then, he became inactive at a time when Covid 19 was really threatening the world, and he was last active on March 12, 2020. I dug up some of his recent post history while he was active, but he hasn't indicated himself to leave the forum for any reason. Of course I am with you and others hope he is well, but Covid 19 was too vicious at that time.
TMAN was well some months after the pandemic Covid-19 outbreak. This question about his status was raised a few times and I remembered that one forum member who has contact with TMAN in person, confirmed that he was well, no health issues in pandemic time.

I will try to summon that post. Here you go!

It's for information, you can believe it or not. Believe it if you trust ChiBitCTy.

WHERE IS TMAN? for 1 month of inactivity 🤔🤔
Everyone just relax, all is well with TMAN.  I spoke with him recently and he's actually doing better than ever (his words not mine).  He told me he woke up one day and had an epiphany from god.  Apparently he has opened his own ministry, and is preaching the word of the lord while also goat herding ( a biblical action that was once Josheph's way of life).  He said he's over calling everyone prized cunts and will be coming back here soon to preach the word of the lord.  "Bitcoin and Prayer" as he phrased it.

Oh, TMAN! Does any even know where he is? User hasn't been active for a few years now. I hope he's ok. That user was a handful.

Does this include someone giving a death threat or wishing death of someone on the forum?
No. Threatening someone with violence or death is a crime and obviously crosses a line.
I was going to ask that same question until I saw it had been asked already. You know, if we advocate that people shouldn't take to heart mere words thrown here as hurting since it's just social media and not physical; why then is a comment issuing threat any different and punishable since it's also on social media and not physical?

I didn't find any newbie SOKO- DEKE on that thread and also I can't even find a post stating the word "Non-Sense".

SOKO-DEKE is far from a beginner Wink I don't understand why the author of the topic mentions him at all. There is nothing offensive from SOKO-DEKE in the thread he links to. He's just talking about bitcoin, that's all.
Yeah, the op should understand that human are bound for correction so if someone actually says something against your post or reply to a thread the best thing you should do especially in the big community like this is just to take as a positive energy for yourself and instead of whining, you should just learn a lesson from it or just ignore it as every normal average person would do. And by the soko deke himself would have received a couple of correction in his struggle to improve here in the community and thats why he is just following the circle of things and correcting others thats needs it.

I didn't find any newbie SOKO- DEKE on that thread and also I can't even find a post stating the word "Non-Sense". I do agree that some people have aggressively stated their point of view but it is not necessary that one's opinion matches with others and we have full right to argue with any person if we do not agree with his or her statement.

Sometimes people may use in-appreciate language which may hurt anyone, we have the option to ignore the person who is constantly bugging us, but a better reaction will be to give a respectful reply to a harsh comment and the other person will feel ashamed.

Remember If you are bad to a bad person there is no difference between the two, but if you are good to a bad person, then you are far superior to him.
No offense expected when we become part of a multi-cultural and language community in online forum like bitcointalk forum. I understand that some people may be offended by words, but in the end it's not what deserves more attention.

In fact, I was once called a sycophant by one of my own local users because I had too much respect for smart and knowledgeable minds from other users when I tried to improve post quality and rank up. But in the end they also realized it was my way to increase skills and knowledge. Local users respect each other with good manners, but not all users have good manners in discussions, and it can also happen on global boards. You know that not all respondents on a topic will give constructive advice, but sometimes there are some insults that we really don't want to hear.
