Axe the swear filter.
 

Why is there a swear filter on a forum about big brother? It needs axing imo

Where do I sign the petition

This is a family website.

Nah.

Wow thanks for the explanation as to why babes

I've always thought it was a little bizarre how this forum censors swear words when the show it's centered around doesn't.

Thank you..

I've explained the reasons before. It's come up a few times. Let me see if I can find it.

I don't ****ing know.

Don't see why people feel the need to actually see the swear words it's not as if it adds anything meaningful to a conversation, most people get the idea when the asterisks appear anyway.

Is it just me or has the filter got even worse lately? You can't even write **** or **** or ****ing or **** and have people understand what you mean because the asterisks block EVERY SINGLE CHARACTER. Not being dramatic but this is North Korea type censorship.

When moorangu was censored :skull:

swearing is what young people do to try to be cool and fit in and what old people do when they have not got the vocabulary

ya bass

can we at least remove some of the random censors, like tiny chat and plu g d j
once i was posting a pic on someones wall and i couldn't because the most random 3 characters were censored :skull:

I don't mind the swear filter as much as I used to but I will say that it's a little inconsistent.

For example, 'slag', 'slut' and 'bitch' aren't filtered and yet a five letter word beginning with W that rhymes with 'bore' is :shrug:

I think those who sign up and are over 18 should have the option to turn it off... think the filter is fine for the most part.

s.t.f.u being censored is kind of hilarious.

Yeah, also I cant say 'hit' with an s at the front, but I can say twat, pussy, and dickhead

This. Make it the default but give users the option to switch it off.

Like we do with images, sigs etc.

That's kind of hilarious though because like in films you're allowed to hear swearing at like 12-15 :skull:

do NOT GET BITCH CENSORED
