Sh1t.
 
why is this word filtered and wank, slut, bastard, piss, dick, slag, ***** are not?

Fair enough I can see the F and C words are a little more extreme (let's not get into that debate) but what's so offensive about a little poop?

InOne 08-02-2011 05:53 PM

Now they will filter them :/

Stu 08-02-2011 05:54 PM

Lucida Sans Unicode.

It's the future of swear filter bypass technology.

Seriously though yeah your right. This has been done to death and I don't think the admins have ever given us a proper answer. Optional swear filter. Sorted.

[BTW did you make this thread after a certain post where you claimed the meaning of your life was to enjoy astrixes? :tongue:]

Looks a hell of a lot more dignified than the classic italicized option.

Although fuck ... after much intensive screen gazing Verdana might be the one to go for.

In fact I think it's the same fo .... it's perfect!

Patrick 08-02-2011 06:15 PM

This.

Infact the fact Stfu and Gtfo are still banned is a disgrace too :bored:

The reason Dick isn't banned btw is because:

1. It's a Guy's name, what would you do, besides laugh at them, if someone on here was called Dick? Say: 'Hey D*ck, What's Up?' all the time..?

2. It's a slang word for something that's part of the body just like Sh*t is a slang word for something that comes out of the body.

Shaun Shssssssssss......

Shaun 08-02-2011 06:31 PM

LOL - seriously banning though would be pointless, since they're factual terms as well.

Surely the moderators can tell the difference between swearing to express frustration with something, and swearing to insult someone. Only the latter should be against the rules.

Didnt work!

Should be an optional swear filter just like you can switch off sigs or avatars then it's the users responsibility what gets seen in their homes

James 10-02-2011 07:27 PM

It was censored because it was appearing a little too often, and casually, in topic titles. If it gets used too often it cheapens the forum a bit.

James 10-02-2011 07:34 PM

Okay, have your say.

I'll actually have a say in here too (god forbid :laugh:)

I agree with the suggestions of an optional swear filter. If it would be possible.

Maybe when signing up members are automatically put in the 'filtered' group but they CAN change this if they like?

That.

Also, stars look cheaper than swear words. Honestly. Same goes for any article I have ever read that employs similar tactics.

You have to wonder how many people the astrixes reign of terror deterred from swearing on the forum. Everyone continued on swearing anyway.

Feel free to respond :laugh:.

As far as I know an optional swear-filter isn't really possible on this forum because the censor is applied when the post is stored, not when the post is viewed, unfortunately.

K. Thought it might not be able to be done.

Can we get an over 16s part? :amazed:
