Word censoring

Postby nwru » Mon May 24, 2010 10:27 am

Time for some fun with the word censors. If the word you're posting is being substituted by something else, then yes, it was done on purpose. Not going to elaborate :tongue2:

Ok, ok. Now that you've gotten that out of your systems, let's stop with the useless posts. :glare:

Are you kidding, 'ru? You expect something besides mindless drivel?

Personally, I'd rather be hit with asterisks instead of random words for a censor. It's usually easier for me to spot and remove the asterisks during a post preview. =\

I agree with this.

The word censoring would cause more people to be like **** **** **** **** **** **** ****, and make useless posts, rather than say normal things, and have less useless posts

I actually think this is a decent idea, but under two conditions:

1) you make the words stand out better when censored. Bold and italic at the same time would work best imo

2) you choose better replacement words. I'd hire someone like scutch for something like that.

1) That makes them stand out, sure, but in a more obstrusive and obnoxious way than they do as asterisks.

2) May seem "huurrr that's funny" at first, but it's really just clutter, I think. Not to mention, when I see a censored post with "****" every few words, that comes across as more entertaining than "smurf", or whatever the hell word it's replaced with.

Why not just use **** and dkmn and whatnot. It's censored while still getting the message across. It eliminates the bastrad=**** thing.

I would like an option to opt out all censoring really.
