Guest Copycatalyst Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 You think I'm afraid to be banned? I was banned before and it means nothing to me, especially in the current state of these messageboards. So you can give me your vapid little threats from your mod position. I was a mod once, you know, lol. I am not afraid whatsoever. Ban me if you want to. Oh no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, if these boards mean nothing to you as you claim, then why on Earth are you wasting your time here? Doesn't a supreme mastermind such as yourself have anything better to do? Quit fooling yourself, we know you love this place. ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 [quote=Shy]I post almost exclusively in The Arena and I really hadn't noticed. From a creative standpoint I could see why the accidental filtering may upset people, but it's not a huge deal... most of the time people can tell what you're trying to say anyway. The only annoying thing will be when the censor is lifted and all of the old swearing is still blacked out. [/quote] [color=#606060]Yeah, this really sums it up I think. Mitch, get over yourself. There's really nothing about OB that's "repressive" - if you think blocking out a few swear words classifies as repressive, then you don't know what the word means. In all honesty, I think some people need a severe reality check. It's posts like that which make OB painful - not anything else. If you dislike OB so much, don't post here. Simple. If you continue to troll the site you're only proving my point - that you, rather than OB, are the problem.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desbreko Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 [color=#4B0082]The filter is disabled once again in Adventure Square, Adventure Inn, Arena Underground, and OB Anthology. Have fun being pottymouths, everyone. :p[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horendithas Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 [COLOR="Indigo"]:love2: [CENTER] *[B]worships the great Dessy[/B]* [/CENTER] Heh, I just took a look since I was considering fixing a few posts, but whatever you did restored the swearing that was already there. Which is great. Silver One had very little to begin with and like SunfallE I found those asterisks annoying. lol So I'm glad I don't have to fix anything.

Desbreko Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 [color=#4B0082]Oh, hey, you're right. I guess the way the filter works must have been changed between 3.0 and 3.6, because it used to be that once a word was censored in a post it couldn't be restored even after the filter was lifted. 'Cause I didn't do anything besides install the plug-in and specify which forums to disable the filter in.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hm. :whoops: -Shy[/size][/QUOTE]Hehe, that is an odd thing to pray for I must say. I must admit I'm glad it's fixed though, if only to preserve those few cuss words in Silver One. Because even though they didn't, I still thought those asterisks looked painfully stupid. >_< But I'm even happier that I don't have to go back through and fix the posts. Since I would have had to hunt for them, there wasn't a lot to begin with. Heh. :catgirl: Anyway, regardless of how it worked out. Thanks for fixing it Des by virtue of installing the plug-in.[/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zen Posted July 14, 2007 Author Share Posted July 14, 2007 [color=darkred][size=1] When I say creative, I mean somehow fitting in curse words in a regular post but in ways that get them by.

2010DigitalBoy Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 [COLOR="DarkOrange"]I noticed that you can now apparently use harsher words in the Anthology whereas they used to get bleeped as far as I remember... it took me by surprise becasause I typed '****' fully expecting it to turn into '****' but it didn't...[/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There wouldn't be any need to bypass the censor in regular posts I don't think - I think you can probably get your point across without swearing. Even though I know we have users of all ages...I'd say the vast majority still want to have some kind of standard when it comes to language use. Still, we have censors disabled in AA because that's a whole other thing. I'm just glad that people don't have to go back and change all their posts - luckily it was all automatic.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen Posted July 15, 2007 Author Share Posted July 15, 2007 [color=darkred][size=1] Yeah, you have no idea how huge a relief that was for me. Haha, I know that I can express myself adequetly without the use of curse words, but when certain stories are being told, they become nearly manditory. Several of my works deal with criminals or vulgar teenagers (such as the real me, coincedentally) and whil I don't think cursing is a great thing that everyone should use, sometimes it's just in character to do it. But yeah, I'm definetly glad I don't have to go back and change everything I wrote on [b]The Hit[/b]. That would've sucked royaly.[/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 [FONT="Garamond"][SIZE="2"]Here's an idea, let's make the cuss words be only viewable by people of certain ages. Like, for example, if you were 13 years or younger, you couldn't post or read any cuss words. And say you were 14 or older, you could. How about that? Also, where can I post my idea's about the ********** signature size Bull****.?^^[/SIZE][/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as the Creative Works category is the only one with swear words enabled, and the fact that they have ratings for it already seems a better system. If you want to complain about signature size, make a thread about it here in Suggestions.[/SIZE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 [FONT="Garamond"][SIZE="2"]I guess that does kinda've stomp my idea. Oh well, maybe someone will come up with a good solution sometime or another.[/SIZE][/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
