More bleeps than usual?

I've noticed that as well.

My entering of more profanities into the filter is allowing you to see how much profanity is said here.

In some of the RPGs there are alot of bleeps, but only because there has to be..I think.

Doppelgangergang · Jul 03, 2008 5:06 AM

I think the filter is oversensitive. It was ok the way it was.

EDIT: Could I take a look at the word filter? Because it censored "j*erk" but in Spyro 2 and 3, they were referring moneybags as one. Sure if the games themselves have the word, why can't it be on the forum?

EDIT 2: I also triggered the bleep when I was playing an RP. I was not saying anything unusual.

There should be an "adaptive" system of adding words to the filter.

Instead of adding a ton of words that censor out legitimate words, you should keep the filter as is and gradually put in words as you spot them in the forum.

"Balls" and "Jerk" removed.

Well said, Stormy.

I agree with Stormy. If it has been noticed with older members, I can understand. (The public education system is terrible about swearing) What I don't like is that young members are cursing. (10-12 year olds) I don't want them to be picking up the language on this forum. That could cause trouble and give this forum a bad name.

I don't know why someone would use boobs...and I guess so then.

DragonFireOKN · Jul 04, 2008 2:00 AM

How about you keep it the system the same. Just let more people have the privilage to delete words like that. (Boobs, etc.) Usually its a few members that do it so if you take care of them, it will settle down.

1st offense: Warning

2nd offense: 2 day ban

3rd offense: Week long ban

4th offense: permaban

(Keep in mind that this would apply to the REALLY bad words. Like the F-word)

Antr the Rolf · Jul 04, 2008 2:07 AM

I could see that of good works to the site...very good service...and its all clear to ANY user.

Doppelgangergang · Jul 04, 2008 4:32 AM

Why are we talking about enforcing the language control if you are bypassing them yourselves?

Stormy · Jul 04, 2008 1:09 PM

Spyrorocks · Jul 04, 2008 6:02 PM

I got a better system:

Purposely bypass word filter: 3 day ban.

Second offense: 1 week ban.

Third offense: Perma ban.

Its simple. Don't try to purposely bypass the filter.

(Does not apply to words that are not filtered. If you enter a word that is not filtered (But if a profanity), I will enter it into the filter database and no harm will come to you (Unless it was extremely vulgar and directed at a member, etc etc)).

Whenever it comes to me and a censoring, it's actually me typing in the *beep* thing, I'm not a profane person but when I get mad, I do sneak out a word, but I don't type it. So don't think it's me cursing, the only time I do the censor is in an RPG when I try to relate with my characters. (Sorry if off topic)

BOT: I haven't really noticed, but it took me until reciently to figure out the *bleeps* are the forum censor, not a person typing it in (except for me)

I curse at myself for making mistakes when I'm golfing. (In my head)
