Option to turn filtered words on/off?

As much as I'd like this to work, it wouldn't, so I'm against this idea I'm afraid. We all saw what happened when "*****" and "piss" were unfiltered, and that took far too long for the novelty to wear off for some people. Suddenly allowing everyone to say anything just by changing an option would basically amount to the same thing as if the site redirected to lemonparty again.

edit: That said, I think a solution may be to allow VIP subforums to be more lenient - allowing the subforum owners to have more control over moderation in their areas and making moderators less aggressive in them would give certain freedoms and allow for more decent usergroups to come up.

Plus they cannot access a User CP where they can turn the filter on and off (which is where the option to turn it off would be placed), So no msb., you do not know what you're saying, especially when people realise you don't know what you're saying and slowly change your story after each post after that :rolleyes: I really do think msb. should be ignored on the forum by default, to save other users from his posts where he is "trying" to be smart and understands what he is talking about... Has no-one noticed he just returned from no where, so really cannot judge on what to do when he wasn't there to see them implicated...



You are here to annoy, you said it in your other thread. You're here for fun and you ARE annoying people. You shouldn't be allowed membership plus shouldn't be apart of these forums if you're just going to have "fun" by pretending you know what you're talking about plus annoying people in the process. Why post a leaving forum when you weren't leaving? Asking for people to vote was stupid, because you weren't planning on leaving, just asking for attention, and most people voted yes to you leaving I believe?

I can put this in bullet points to make it is easier for you

• Is this even possible to make yet, do you know any1, no, exactly.
• I thought plugins or w/e they are called don't get installed on here very often, read in past thread.
• Why did you suddenly come up with that, was there any need?
• I am here for fun/help others, NOT TO ANNOY *caps, take note pls*
• I don't think putting me on default is good even if u agree or w/e... the forum doesn't cost money to join so I am free to join it.
• You don't understand my view against this, your problem is that if I am against an idea that your NOT, you turn it into arguments from a council representative I thought you would know this.

Explaination of what I mean :), If turning it off and I visit habboxforum
*not logged in* then people may swear in another language besides english, yes they can infract them for breaking a rule for speaking another languge but it will just encourage others to speak in another language to swear.

If you don't get that then pm me, I am happy to help.

-Is this even possible to make yet, do you know any1, no, exactly.

Actually yes, although it's a hack which Habbox are against. Most things PHP/HTML wise is possible on a forum, it just depends whether or not it is safe. So no, you don't know what you're on about.

- I thought plugins or w/e they are called don't get installed on here very often, read in past thread.

What's that got to do with anything? I'm not for the idea so don't put words in my mouth "/

-Why did you suddenly come up with that, was there any need?

Same could be said to you, is there any need for you to post thinking you know what you're saying? No. Is there any need to annoy members? No. Is there any need for you to be part of this forum when you're here to have FUN (which is annoy by the looks of it)? No.

-I am here for fun/help others, NOT TO ANNOY *caps, take note pls*

Well you're very bad at helping. Don't commit yourself to help someone when you are just end up annoying people.

- I don't think putting me on default is good even if u agree or w/e... the forum doesn't cost money to join so I am free to join it.

True, but when you annoy people by failing to help (like you said) then there's no point joining when your user experience, as well as others' experiences aren't as good as they could be.

- You don't understand my view against this, your problem is that if I am against an idea that your NOT, you turn it into arguments from a council representative I thought you would know this.

From a council point of view (which is no different to any other point of view) it needs to work and needs to be possible to work. I am against this idea, when did I say I was for it? Again, you don't read things and just change your story which is annoying, thus you annoy people.

- Explaination of what I mean :), If turning it off and I visit habboxforum
*not logged in* then people may swear in another language besides english, yes they can infract them for breaking a rule for speaking another languge but it will just encourage others to speak in another language to swear.

If the filter was turned off... Why would people swear in another language? If they are guests and they see people writing in a foreign language, how would they know they're swearing? Unless you beleive ALL guests know swear words in every language possible :rolleyes:

Why? You fail to help and your PMs are unwanted spam anyway "/

This would be good, eg; Habbo they had done this. If this was done then we can use them.

My God you've got your head down the toilet... You said "Is this even possible to make yet, do you know any1, no, exactly." It is possible, "end of." This is why no-one likes you on this forum and voted "Yes" to you leaving, because you are annoying, you change your stories to try to look smart, but you are not. So what you bolded had nothing to do with the discussion. Jeez, just leave.

Any1 agree with this idea?

---mad--- do u?
I don't

I am sorry to say but there is no chance in this happening.

We are against people using filtered words. Doing this will simply encourage it because some people will be able to see what the words used are.

You have all seen what people did/are doing when we unfiltered piss and *****. There are so many immature users that simply ruin it for everyone else. We try to make the censor relaxed by giving everyone some sense of freedom, but they use the rope to hang themself with it.

We are a lot more relaxed about the filter on the chat system mainly because the text on there disappears from the screen after a few minutes (which is why it's fine for Habbo to offer an option as the text disappears a few seconds later). On the forum however, the text remains forever for people to read therefore we simply cannot allow users to be exposed to inappropriate language.

Also, msb., I am a little tired of your posts. Please behave or you will be banned.

What do u mean lol.

Edit: re-read your edit etc... Every post I make only goes into a spam thread because sum1 starts an argument, if I am wrong please state where i have started the argument.

Yes but mad, the fact that the user would have agreed to view the filtered words shouldnt give rise to any complaints. Its their decision to see it and i dont see how it would encourage foul language, f people are too immature to see that they are being given more responsibility then just ban them for excessive swearing (temp ban). I wouldnt swear any more or less if their was a filter but it would be nice not to guess what people are trying to say.

Im sure their was something else that i was going to say but oh well.

On the msb. front, i agree. Every post you make seems to be the complete opposite to what the thread is about and is always negative. You disagree with the majority of the forum all the time and you try to be clever by using peoples old names which just looks stupid.
