Why can't we swear in this forum?

[DarkStar]

I mean, it is a website for an M-rated, extremely violent videogame. Even alot of of official company-run forums let you swear. I need to ****ing express myself.

 

[DarkStar]

Oops...wrong forum, meant to put this in general discussion. Mods move it please thanks.

Only the eff-bomb is censored...

 

[DarkStar]

Really? Here... hold on a sec, let me try something. Shit...SHIT....Shitty Shitpants McShiterson. Wow, I guess the eff-bomb is the only one I ever wanted and/or tried to use. Cool.

DarkStar, remember there are 13 year olds running around here as much as there are 17 year olds... I am one of them...
But again, still-what's wrong with the eff-bomb?

I like how you used a 0 instead of an o

Has anyone seen Boondock Saints? The "Funny man" shows the versatility of the word **** quite well.

Becasue we don't want our children to take on wrong doing behaviors in our society of good-doers.

Favourite Movie. And the "Funny Man" is Roc.

*Edit*

BTW, why is ****** censored and Wop isn't? (****** begins with an N)

BTW, couldn't we just say kcuf ? hehe Guess not. Sounds retarded. A lot of people used feck or fuk or f|_|ck here I suppose. It's like they let it slip through the cracks, but won't let it go on in the open.

Actually, when the mods see users bypassing the swear filters, they get angry and edit posts.

 

[Brian Damage]

I've never seen the point of swear filters. People usually know what the filtered word is, anyway.

This is a website that can be visited by anyone with an internet connection.

10 year olds, 13 year olds, 40 year olds...

We want it to stay a place for everyone so we try and keep things as civil as possible. One of the ways we do this is by masking out swear words wherever possible. Considering there's only one word masked, you're pretty lucky!

**** complaining about it!!!

 

[StarMonkey]

why do you need to swear anyway?

surely its possible to get your point across without resorting to using the word '****'
