Strike through

I don't think it's rude, really, it can be used in an amusing way or even to cross out a swear naughty word (hush my mouth!)

Not necessarily in answer to anyone else's post or to insult anyone.

I don't think that's true, Annie - GNHQ staff are as capable of reading what's underneath the strike-through as anyone else.

No one's post would be 'protected' if it contained a personal insult.

On your iPad the hypen is on the number keyboard on left hand side, middle row

Subtly saying what you mean? No it's a way to insult a poster and protecting your post

Thanks for asking that question Buddly. I had been wondering. It's often very funny?

You need 2 hyphens before and after the words you want to strike through.

I know I 'm thick but I can't work out how to do the 'strikethrough' when I'm writing. I think it's really good for subtly saying what you really mean but I can't find that little hyphen thingy that goes before and after the word on my keyboard. I use an ipad, is it a different keyboard to others?

Thanks
