word censor
 

uhm.. im noticing a lot of words being censored.. whats up with this?

can't even say *****, ****, and some other words which aren't really bad-words. i feel like im visiting a church when i come here.. ******* can be used as two words but not one :confused:

The hint would be that you shouldn't be saying those words. Also, don't try to get around the filter.

All of the words you listed are considered offensive. I am not offended by it, but others are. It's best to respect everyone and not use that language where it's not allowed.

Basically, wether you feel that those words are "not bad words" doesn't stop someone else from thinking they are.

wow that was lame... since when ***** is a badword? http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionar...=+++++&x=0&y=0

fact is, they can be said on national television .. get a hint.

... You're really going to argue this? Okay.. whatever floats your boat.

I'm just going to assume that you didn't read my prior post and that you don't understand how the word can be taken offensive to many.

There's nothing wrong with not typing out a curse word.

This is the second time I have had to warn you about getting around the profanity filter. Please follow my request.

no i dont have to argue.. i have my own site i can do that at.. im only debating.
and for the record those some of those words i typed arent even filtered on vbulletin.com.

i think most people are adults here, at least i thought so..

In my opinion, adults would never go around and talk or type offensive language. I really rarely see adults do it. But you also have to consider the many people here who actually are offended by the language.

I'm also pretty sure that a good majority of the members here are 14 and possibly younger which really isn't considered an "adult". Though most of them speak that way anyways..

well i guess you're forgetting it is the internet after all.. even if there are "young" users here it doesn't stop them from seeing it elsewhere. it is all a wording thing..

take "D I see K" for example.. is that offensive? even though the word is actually some person's name? anyway.. i'll leave it at that because it's pointless trying to have a debate here..

Well, it all depends on how the word is used. It can be taken offensively, and it can be taken non-offensively. But just because the younger audience can easily get on to a mature/adult content website doesn't mean vB.org should allow adult content to be posted here.

Granted they are two different things, but both of them are easily found offensive and vulgar. But anyways, as you stated, it's pointless to debate this because there will be people who disagree with you, and people who don't.

No hard feelings or anything, I'm just stating why I believe they have cencoreship here.
