*****'s -- Why?

[Solus]

Why are some clan names / urls bleeped out with Asterix? I mean sure maybe the mods dont like them, but bleeping their names out? This just makes life harder for everybody when people are trying to pass on iformation. Kind of juvenile as well.

Yes, very much related to Half-Life 2 Discussion.

myg0t thrive on publicity. We don't intend to give it to them by allowing their name to be said on these forums. Yes, I realise the irony of this sentance.

Other names and urls are banned because they're either swearwords, spam sites or warez/porn websites.

In that case, he should type it like Mr. Methane did.

Problem is that using * can sometimes cause a bit trouble. Can test it though:
cockpit. That's a valid word, wonder if it will do *...

(yes this is an excuse just to post something )

Edit: w00t! It worked, this forum has better parsing than mine. It insisted to rewrite it as thingypit (later removed after some excessive ****** from me)

Hours is close to a lifetime to moderators of these forums, it's pure chaos most of the time.

On the bright side, Just For Men hair dye sales have skyrocketed.
