I find it absolutely outrageous that i'm not allowed to say '*****' but a forum member is allowed to post and leave comments on threads with this name(his username = *****)? they say its offensive to other members when i say it? well i feel 100% offended by that persons name who posts a lot on here, so what are you going to be doing about that HxF?
That rule really is stupid.

Who says you're not allowed to say *****? You're allowed to say it as long as it isnt intended as an insult towards someone else.

I dont know, he might be but having the name "*****" is allowed and saying '*****' is allowed as long as its NOT aimed at anyone or used as abuse.

Actually, you're mistaken. Yes, you're allowed to say ***** but you can't use it against people. For example, "I feel like such a *****" would be deemed acceptable and "You are such a *****" would be deemed unacceptable. Now I know what you're thinking, that if it can be deemed as offensive so easily then why is it unfiltered at all? Take into consideration, before you ask that, that you can be infracted/warned for calling someone an idiot. ***** is fine, you just need to use it in the correct context.

ok so maybe more then 2 rules for one word, they should just ban the word or keep it, end of?

The word was unfiltered because people were complaining that the filter was too strict; so Habbox gave in and unfiltered piss and ***** because they are deemed as very mild swear words. It only takes one or two immature members constantly abusing these words for them to be re-added to the filter. Basically, think about how you're post will be perceived before you use it and you won't have any problems :)

I think you know why you aren't allowed to do that. The 'f' word is a lot more offensive than piss and *****, anybody can tell you that.

'**** you' is less offensive than saying, 'you *****' ?

I'm sorry, could please quote where I said that? And no, just because ***** is unfiltered does not mean you can use it in that context. Using it like that would result in a warning/infraction just as using the word idiot would.

I would see that as less offensive. However, that word is generally alot ruder than ***** so it hasn't been unfiltered.

that's rather stupid, they're just complicating it, i can accept the word piss not to be filted as it can't be used offensivly, if they want a good atmosphere on the forum then they should ban the word '*****' as people are going to be usin it, aiming it at other members, so habbox are just defeating there own objective/rules
:S
btw@above, i never said you said it, which is why i didn't quote it :P was just making a point.

I do agree with you here but it was the members who campaigned for mild swear words to be unfiltered so if they don't like it anymore, it's their own fault.

This forum gets more complicated every single hour that it's online, they want to be official yet they allow runescape&habbo trading&WoW trading ect.. and selling habbo stuff for real world money.
outragous.

Habbox have, and never will allow that. If you're caught doing that you get infracted, the thread context is removed and then closed.

I don't quite see what your problem is. You can use any word in the english language (that isnt filtered) on the forum, as long as you dont use it to offend anyone else. Which part of that is "complicated"?
i only said that as he insulted me?
How you can use that to back up your argument is beyond me. He could have killed your cat, but you're still not allowed to call him a ***** on the forums. Two wrongs don't make a right.

You aren't allowed to use it as an insult or anything negative to other members. :)
