Given the name of the first member to get axed due to the new forum rules, I assume that from now on being banned on this forum will be referred to as "Getting Chucked".

But more seriously, was Chuck tossed for the for the name-calling or the profantiy? or both?

Hard to tell, since he combined both elements into one compact, pithy sentence.

It was the combination. As a reminder:

Rule 1. No personal insults. If you disagree with somebody, politely attack the writing, not the writer.

If he had just said "You guys are nuts" I would have let it go. Adding the F-bomb is what crossed the line. No apologies or regrets from me.
It's not whether you win or lose; it's whether or not you had a good bet.

Well lets see- if we said He "got chucked"- means he was banned.

If you tell someone to "stop chucking"- means they were doing needless cursing

If I was "Chucking it up" - Id be creating an unsensable neusance of myself.

I don't think the term applies if Chuck chucked himself.

How much chuck would Chuck chuck if Chuck could chuck chuck?

Shut the Chuck up.
