Can someone please type out the dictionary definition for the word VIOLATION ?

Question

I know it but would like to share it with the trolls who keep annoying my fellow users of this sight. It is a very harsh word and is used in the wrong context. We are not violators. The emails we get with this heading are insults to us. I speak for everyone. Any one who thinks i am over reacting need not reply. If i am thrown off the site it is ok i am wearing a helmet I`m gone

Why should i Amy. I do as i wish , Thankyou

TL.... I mean that they are implying that we have committed an outrageous crime because of a few simple words that are harming no one. Even those that swear and insult folk are not actually violating others. Yes they are being offensive . Violation is too strong a word.

Answer 1

"You dissed the law beatch"

I hope the Ali-G Oxford version helps

Answer 2

Basically, in this context a violation is a breach of the rules. Under some circumstances the word 'violation' does imply seriousness.

1. a crime less serious than a felony [syn: misdemeanor]
2. an act that disregards an agreement or a right; "he claimed a violation of his rights under the Fifth Amendment"
3. entry to another's property without right or permission [syn: trespass]
4. a disrespectful act [syn: irreverence]
5. the crime of forcing a woman to submit to sexual intercourse against her will [syn: rape]

I understand your outrage. For example, some answerers receive very harsh treament for very minor breaches without any hope of appeal. Usually, any offence taken by a fellow answerer can lead to a report. There does not seem to be any consistency applied in such cases.

Answer 3

Hey the site probably needs people like you who call for healthy debate.
Exactly what is it that you want the definition of violation to say/explain?
What do you think these people are calling you when they call you 'violators'.

EDIT* I just read your previous questions/answers and can't give a good answer to your original question/dilemma.
Except maybe chill out and don't listen so much to what others say - its only Y/A afterall, and who knows who you're talking to!

*Another Edit* Hey Enigmatic J - I agree that the word violation is way too strong. However use of swear words etc can be offensive to some people and I'm sure the 'rules' prohibit or at least advise against using them. I'd be interested to make my own 'judgements' about the "violation". Again though i say "who knows who you're talking to" and who is reporting you (for whatever reason).
