[09:35] <BlueShark_> Hello. What's the official stance of the usage of the word "sucks" in Ubuntu chat? #ubuntu, to be specific. For more context, the exact sentence was: "some scripts just sucks". Is it considered profane/derogatory/unprofessional/swearing? I know this might seem silly, but I've been seeing it for a while now; just want to clarify.
[11:38] <ikonia> BlueShark_: I don't see a problem with it
[11:59] <BlueShark_> ikonia: Could you please check #ubuntu-discuss and see if the conversation makes sense? Possibly clarify this as well.
[12:09] <ikonia> don't think I need to go into a channel
[12:10] <ikonia> if anyone has anything they are unhappy about they can join this channel and talk to the ops
[12:10] <ikonia> or they can raise it to the IRCC on email - or use the mailing lists
[12:10] <ikonia> the channels policy is not against specific words, but around trying to be rude or offensive, there are few people and cultures to my mind and knowledge that will find 'sucks' offensive
[12:10] <ikonia> if they do they can always ask the user to tstop
[12:10] <ikonia> top
[12:11] <ikonia> to stop
[14:26] <BlueShark_> ikonia: Thanks for the clarification. Have a nice day!
