Casper Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 This is a part of this thread: http://www.ohio-riders.net/showthread.php?t=23872Should we censor foul language?Language. I personally don't care if anyone swears on here. I've never really had any complaints except from Sonny and he isn't even on here anymore. However, should the option be there? Basically, I can set it to censor whatever words, and give the option to you the members to turn the censor off in the User CP. What do you think?

OsuMj Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 I say no, but it wouldn't hurt to have the sensor available for the sensitive kids... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarvismb Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 would this be a George Carlin-based filter, or will you be making the rules yourself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casper Posted March 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 would this be a George Carlin-based filter, or will you be making the rules yourself?Good question. I think anything the FCC would censor. But I'm open to suggestions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disclaimer Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 I'm not a fan of censorship, but some people are a little more uncouth than others... I'd say make it an option. I won't use it, but it'd give some of the more "uptight conservative"-types the ability to censor for their own sake. The rest of the conservative types can still be asshats. J/k - peace and love.

John Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 we dont want to offend anyone's delicate sensibilities now do we?IMO if you dont like swear words, dont read them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yotaman88210 Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 Give the option. It will stop complaints. Actually, all new members should maybe start as censored, then have the option to turn it off? this way we dont scare anyone away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todd#43 Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 Personally, I don't mind the swearing. I'm sure I do it just as much (ok, sometimes more) than others.I think though, that people should have the option to censor the naughty words from what they read, IF they choose. The same thing should go for some of the more "risque" emoticons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RC51 John Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 can we keep certain letters in? like F***tard or you g**d*** m*****f***** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchmuckGirl Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 But then i guess I don't get what the point is. I mean, you basically know or can infer what was said. I guess if you're so offended by cursing, maybe forum life is not for you? Or maybe you need to find the Christian Riders forum? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess if you're so offended by cursing, maybe forum life is not for you? Or maybe you need to find the Christian Riders forum?I think as adults we can all infer what the intent was, even if the "word" (or part of it) isn't used, and I'm sure most people aren't offended either. If they were, I'm sure they're long gone from here.Either way, some of us do have young children that occasionally pop in and read over our shoulders. It would be nice to have the "option" to have those things "off" or "on" as the case may be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magley64 Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 this is an option on another board I'm a member of, and it was actually pretty hilarious when the admins got done with the sensor...we were having conversations about *manparts* cheney, and one of the admins even decided to turn "platypus" into *duckbeaver*.I don't see the harm in adding a censor if some of the members want it, just have it default to off, and make all new members aware that it's available...or yota's way where it defaults to on...whatever...

natedogg624 Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 if you did censor people would just work around it, spaces in between the letters or whatever. it would be pointless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
