"Orgasmic"

What's wrong with that word?

They use it for sex education, it's not exactly offending/offensive?

What sentences can you think of that people will use it in on this forum?

"Oh that is ******ic!"
"Yeah, he/she did that and had an ****** ;o"
"I'm going to ****** because of you"
"******!!!"

I don't see anything wrong with the word?

I do think that the should re-read the word filter.
This forum IS designed for teens and above.
They are taught that word in school so i see no reason for it to be filtered.
:)

Oh and hi danny :)

I thought it was aimed at like 11+ or something but I may be wrong. Even so I know it's not exactly a cuss word init

They allow **** (well, did LOL - unless its another swear word I'm talking about) and its more offensive in the world today than ******ic.


hiiiiiii

Because it is an adult-themed word. Yeah, it may be used for describing something, but this forum is aimed at 11+

My cousin who is 11 is now learning sex education.
So i expect him to hear something along the lines of.
"The woman may get a ******ic feeling"

Willy can be used as a shorthand name for William, e.g. "Hey Willy, how're you?"

How many times a day do you hear someone using the word you want unfiltered? How often do you see it used on here?
Hardly never..

Exactly, so what's the point with having it filtered?

(you do sometimes get people who say it though?)

That is an ******ic template
Your photo is ******ic
That website is ******ic

But its still the fact that it is filtered.

Because there isn't any point in not having it filtered it if it isn't going to be used.

But it isn't an offensive word... and if its barely used why clog up the data on a word barely used?

If ass/piss gets un filtered then what's wrong with ******?

Also Orgasm is filtered?

Dont think it should be.

****** (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/******), the third stage in the sexual response cycle
****** (album) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/******_(album)), an album by John's Children
****** (Atrox album) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/******_(Atrox_album))
****** (song) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/******_(song)), by X Japan
****** (cocktail) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/******_(cocktail))

Its not always used in sexual ways.

The fact is, it never gets used, and if it does, a majority of users are likely to use it inappropriately..

It can never be used cause its filtered :rolleyes:


But what about the majority of mature members? Who might actually use it apporiately???

I'm sure the mature members will then realise that they will get over seeing a word in stars, and will understand why its filtered for the benefit younger visitors and people who use it innapropriatley. That's my reckoning anyway :D

I don't think you quite understand how small a population you're talking about. If I were to stick my neck out I'd maybe classify 40% of users on here as "mature", if we take a majority to be the smallest possible (21%) that would mean about 4 immature posts to one mature post if everyone used the word once. As much as I'd love to live in an ideal world where everyone used words properly, it just doesn't exist, especially on here :)

Of course there are lies, damned lies and statistics but on here that's how things would probably pan out.

Dick can be a short handed word for Richard and for some reason the word is filtered still when it was meant to be removed back when the council was about. It can also mean willy or penis so for some reason there another reason for it to be filtered. It can't be rude, unless you're 80/90 years old and find every little thing insulting :P

I'm not quite sure why some of the words are filtered. The 5 letter P word got filtered, but when you think about it, there are loads of other words and they can avoid the filter to use that word. There's no more and no less work for a moderator to filter words. The BIG words should really be the only ones filtered...

I still think bitch should've been unfiltered, personally.

There is a rule against discussing adult subjects. Therefore, discussion of the aforementioned word is not at all appropriate. There is really no legitimate use of the word where it becomes awkward or even an inconvenience to use alternate words. Even if there are, they are few and far between.

It seems to me you are almost complaining for the sake of complaining - choose your battles.

Oh right I see, fair does'. :)

Ok I respect you until you make comments like that. I am not complaining for the sake of it and I apologise if it seems that way.

I apologize if I got it wrong, it was just that it seemed to me the basis of your statement was "I don't see a reason to unfilter it, I just don't see a reason to filter it". Basically, "I don't think it matters but I just think its wrong". But, I can be wrong too ;)

That's a massive amount more than the true figure surely :P
