Yes, yes, yes there are several ways to intentionally circumvent the word filters. You can use alternate spelling and characters, or you can post a picture of the censored word. Whether you use the actual word and we didn't have word filters, or you sneak it in around the filters by creative means, the end result is the same.
Slang term? No, the Code of Conduct doesn't prohibited the use of slang terms at all. It addresses vulgar language, though, and that particular word is generally in the default censored word list for most forums because it is most often used as a derogatory term or as an insult. Some words are considered to be vulgar regardless of usage. That particular word may or not be vulgar on its own, I guess it depends on the prudish level of the individual. In any case, it's rarely used as a compliment in polite conversation.
True. Not particularly referring to a person as that. More of the rates many/most brokers are covering loads for these days. "Wh0re rates". Certainly not directed at a particular person. I have absolutely no interest in the personal "affairs" of the brokers that seemingly go straight for the wh0re rate. But now we find ourselves in this place.
Just because we at Crossroads don't pay a sales staff doesn't mean we aren't suffering from what this market has become. But diligence and trying to add that nickel a mile as often as possible, one day hopefully......................
Post this morning. And a drect quote....."Looking for Cheap option".
Now, maybe they are up against LTL for a rate. I get that. But sure looks like, what LEOs call "soliciting". LOL!!!
