View Full Version : Swearing
How come **** is filtered and piss isn't?
Tee-hee.
Swearing.
Will someone please think of the children.
:p
I only ask because I called Whitbread brewery Sh*tbread in the beer thread and it got filtered and then noticed Desmo said piss and it wasnt'/

Because people asked for it to be filtered and they didn't ask for the other on to be.
As people have asked it's probably better if we don't deliberately evade the swear filter isn't it?

I believe it caused problems for somebody browsing at work so it was added to the filter :)
edit/ Although I might be thinking of another word.

It's not surprising, if you watch a lot of US reality TV you can say piss until the cows come home, but they'll filter every other word.
My friend made a good point on Twitter yesterday:
Just watched 'Mum's Gone Gay' on Ch.4. How come you can say bugger at 11:50am but not **** (poo). I know which one i'd rather explain to a kid!

Can you amend the sweary filter to replace the naughties with "fluffy" words?

Another forum I know replaces swear words with fruit and veg so people can cabbage off or go for a banana
I think we should go for naff hollywood style censorship
"Flip you, muddy funster"
"kiss my knees"
We did used to have a word replace in operation some time ago, I seem to remember ;)

There was another even more recently so that "hugs" became "dirty bumsechs" or something very similar, didn't half confuse me for a moment thinking that I didn't remember writing that. ;D
That was Desmo's fault. Naughty Desmo. :p ;D
Everybody loves some dirty butt sechs.
On TP ages ago, they replaced lol with something like...
"Well split my sides laughing old bean! That was just spiffing what what!"
That wouldnt be a bad idea, considering the amount of people that say lol, waa-haaaaaaaaaay too much :D

On the Bristol City forum I mod on, a few years back when we were on the verge of signing a player, there were so many posts about him we changed the word filter from his surname to "He who must not be named" :D
Vote for veg word replacement. :D
Or even better, car replacement. So for example, instead of gay, it would be replaced with Porsche or MX5 and instead of b'stard, how about Mercedes. This could get quite a lot of fun.

Heh, and to replace the swear word for poo, "Any American Car"?? :evil:
Except Jeep, of course...

Agreed! lol is NOT puctuation! People do not laugh at the end of every sentence unless they're very, very nervous...
Desperately tried my best not to make the most obvious joke in that post somewhere ;D
