Re: *Bleep* ???????
What if you try to insult a user? Calling someone a loser is an insult and telling someone to go to hell isn't nice at all.

Re: *Bleep* ???????
[sub]Hold up: So "lo.ser" is filtered but "hell" isn't? What's up with that? I'd have it the other way around, personally.
Anyone else think we should have an official word filter thread?[/sub]

Yeah, that'd be good so we know what's bleeped and what's not...*shrug*
I'd like to know anyway...

How about a running list of what's censored?

Re: *Bleep* ???????
I know this site is supposed to be family-friendly, but the word filter is too strict to the point of impediment in normal conversations, IMO.

Genius idea.
Thread creator:The words that are currently filtered are...
*Bleep*
*Bleep*
*Bleep*
*Bleep*
*Bleep*
*Bleep*
*Bleep*
*Bleep*
*Bleep*
*Bleep*
*Bleep*
And so on...

Re: *Bleep* ???????
[sub]What I meant was, there could be a thread where people post their complaints and whatnot about the word filter, since there seems to be so many of them.[/sub]

This could be quite problematic.
e.g. "If you block the word <insert f-word with something added to bypass the filter here>, then why don't you block <insert word (appropriate or not) here>?"

Re: *Bleep* ???????
[sub]But since people create threads and random posts about it all the time anyway, why not just have one thread to report problems with the filter?
Meh. Just an idea. [/sub]

Re: *Bleep* ???????
I think that "hell" isn't filtered because some people forget to put a apostrophe after he.
