New censor bypass rule

I like the the **** that appears when I swear. :)

Personally, I don't see an issue with it, but I'd still advise against it. It promotes a partial censor, which could snowball into people seeing that even more partial censors are okay, which isn't and is the reason we made this rule.

I mean using "f***" is blatantly against the rules given that the new rule specifically states

partially replacing letters with asterisks or other symbols.
 
I think not being able to say f*** is stupid. I always do it like that and not a single staff member has complained.
 
Personally I don't really care whether or not you can swear on here, although it does add a bit of personality to arguments and heated threads, it's not a real necessity. Plus, I've seen other sites that completely prohibit swearing, even when it's just asterisks or symbols, so we should really be ****ing thankful they're not completely taking it away.
 
I don't see a problem with this, not much is changing and I guess it's a forum aimed at children, or at least there's a lot of children here, so it makes sense. I just need to remember not to say "f***" or something now, not that i do often anyway
 
My sister says she curses lots on here and the letters automatically turn into asterisks. I don't think I've cursed on this forum so I don't know if it's already been done.. but maybe the same thing can be done for censor bypassing?

Just a thought.. I don't really know if that requires some kind of coding or if that's an option included in the forum product.
 
I still think things such as "s***" and "f-ing" should be allowed since it's still effectively censored but at least makes sense.

Also, does "p***", "b****", "bl****" and "w*****" count as swearing? They're generally somewhat acceptable here in the UK, though "cr**" is less so.

Frankly, even though I'm sure the censor word bank can take it, I don't think we ought be filling up the censors with every possible go around. It's really not that hard to get/understand to not go around the word censors.
 
i feel like this is unnecessary though. i dont see a problem with taking away a letter or two from the word or replacing them with symbols, they're not spelling out the whole word. if kids arent already exposed to curse words, which id say is very unlikely, chances are they wont even know what it means.
 
Man, I did this before it was a rule and got an infraction. Not really a big fan of enforcing this rule tbh.
 
Who cares, I like the stars it adds mystery

In all seriousness, even in the case of "kids are gonna learn it anyways!" like... kids already know it. The kids on this forum are smart enough to piece together what word the "****" in the middle of a sentence means so there's no point in being against the rule.

Just swear and let it turn to asterisks. Big whoop.
 
i don't see why people dislike this, just don't use symbols. type it out raw and plain. i think it's easier to say **** and not reach for the miscellaneous symbols to substitute it, but whatever floats your rubber ducky boat
 
it's not a big deal.. lol just swear normally & it'll censor it for you. i don't see why someone would try to use other symbols to write out the word lmao
 
You can still swear so I don't get what the big deal is. It isn't like in Webkinz where they legit ban words that contain swear words. My sister wanted to name her dog Butterscotch but couldn't because the word contained the "swear" butt.
We can still freely swear. For a forum aimed at kids, I think tbe mods are being rather cool about it.

Again, it's not a new rule, it's always been there and we're just making it more prominent and known due to the large amounts of people bypassing it recently.
 
Now I gotta start saying heck and frick more often. Time to get creative with new curse word replacements people!

Gunna heck you up so bad!

they should just filter the curse words to other words

everyone's favorite f word becomes "love"

"love you"

"this loving villager just put their house right in front of me"

"wow, I loved up bad"

"I hope you lovers all get banned"

that's so passive aggressive, i can just imagine people typing that and the receiver smiling menacingly on the other end.
