What is this swear filter? I'm sorry I don't already really know about it, but what words can we say and what words can't we say? I didn't know anything about that, could someone please give me some info here. . .did I do something bad by saying the explicative for pee? I mean, isn't this a PG-13 forum really anyways? Nothing offensive meant by it, just curious. . .

Here is a list of all the words you can't say on the forums:

<smallfont color=#999900>-Censored-</smallfont>
<smallfont color=#999900>-Censored-</smallfont>
<smallfont color=#999900>-Censored-</smallfont>
<smallfont color=#999900>-Censored-</smallfont>
<smallfont color=#999900>-Censored-</smallfont>, or at least in the possessive
<smallfont color=#999900>-Censored-</smallfont>
<smallfont color=#999900>-Censored-</smallfont>, when referring to one's <smallfont color=#999900>-Censored-</smallfont>
Mother <smallfont color=#999900>-Censored-</smallfont>


And of course, <smallfont color=#999900>-Censored-</smallfont>

Hope that helps!

Urinate, take a leak, take a whiz, relieve yourself, etc...any of those would do well, I think.

Why isnt Wankel Rotary Engine censored?

It's PG at least on the main boards. In the individual boards (i.e. Jedi, Sith, Imperials, etc), the filters are different. But we still try not to go to extremes on those boards none the less.

and a thread that was been warned from tripping the filter needs to be edited properly or another warning shall be issued :p

so go edit ... friendly reminder ;)

Hera
Jul 26th, 2005, 06:06:47 PM
Wait, so if it isnt edited it keeps getting warned? I thought first trip was a warn, second trip the thread gets locked.

I better re-read the faq, I 'spose..

warning issued to the poster in attempts that the thread does not get locked.... tho it won't be as nice as this ickle reminder :)

If you're a mod, then just edit the censored word. You'd actually lock a thread because of that or are you kidding?

Sanis Prent

They're serious. Instead of making the mods have to bend over backwards and edit all the filth, just watch your mouth instead.

that was an obvious joke and not being taken serious :p Othwerise LD would have taken care of it before I even posted in this thread.

No, the filter was implented to stop people from setting off formerly ***** in posts, mostly in the RP section and for flaming/bating posters in OOC threads. It was really bad and Ogre finally had enough of seeing people swear like sailors on the board and made the rule

If you honestly think Charley did his post for any the above .. well, I have no comeback for it

Oh, you're good...BUT HANG HIM!

*brings out a rope*

Honestly though, I think locking a thread is a bit extreme, expecially since the word is censored anyway. Now for repeated violations, you got yourself a good reason.

Navaria Tarkin
Jul 26th, 2005, 08:26:03 PM
That isn't the point. It encourages people to continue to swear and the staff doesn't find it appropriate for an all ages board. Therefore no tripping of the filter unless you want to be warned. Period

Not sure I follow what you said there, Nav. But anyway, I re-read the faq regarding swearing and its what I thought.

I was just worried for a minute there that if the post wasnt edited, the thread would eventually get locked. Which isnt the case, as I understand it.

Liam - the rule is effective. Nips the issue in the butt.

So Baralai - no more bad words, you. >D

Hera - my heat delirium state meant I would PM the dude and tell him to go fix :lol

sorry ^_^;

thank the gods it rained tho... so nice out!!! :crack

Liam Jinn
Jul 26th, 2005, 08:51:04 PM
Oooh, I was thinking along the same line as Hera, if he didn't edit soon, thread would be locked. That's why I was saying just edit out the word with your Mod powers...

Heh...

:D

Sometimes there's a train wreck and no matter how bad it is, you just have to look in horror and even tho you do your best, you cant tear your eyes away. Now while women aint exactly things I have a lot of time for at present (or tolerance for but I think that's understandable knowing what this year has been like for me and the crapfest my to be ex-wife has lit off), batting for the other side is not my idea of entertainment ever. I still aprreciate a nice set of boobies.
