Yes, people are offended by ass and damn, but they aren't censored.

Wolfie 06-25-2015 02:19 PM

idk, this world can be very surprising

Also if you didnt know, "sh*t" is not censored

Zura 06-25-2015 02:20 PM

Yet gay is, which is offensive alone. You make it seem as if its bad, even though it isn't.

Wolfie 06-25-2015 02:23 PM

people just overexaggerate

Zura 06-25-2015 02:28 PM

Over exaggerate what? Also, could some admins comment on the issue? :)

Wolfie 06-25-2015 02:29 PM

Well, at least you agree with me.

It's probably censored to prevent cyber bullying, because some people like to use sexuality to harass others.

Clown 06-25-2015 03:18 PM

I support the removal of censorship for any word relating to the term 'gay'

I'll probably get flamed for this idea; but I'm going to suggest it anyway

An option to enable a filter (default enabled) to censor words you type into it. Terms like the f word and other vulgarity are filtered as disabled by default, but players may decide to change the swear filter to their suiting? I know that most older players use swear words for comedic effect or just in general as that is how they talk. They may even prefer and appreciate the ability to use words to express what they feel whilst the people who have disabled such words don't suffer? I really don't know, it was just an idea..

CM 06-25-2015 03:20 PM

"That's so g@y" or "you're so g@y" are possibly reasons for why it's censored.

Zura 06-25-2015 03:32 PM

I agree with Clown, my only concern is that some little kids would disable the swear filter. For that reason, I believe it should not disable the extremely mean words: Fk, Fa, Ba, and some sexual words. Or make some sort of age verification that could disable it entirely, but idk how that would work. At least unfilter things involving sexual orientation, except the fa word and other homophobic words…
