Don't be silly, course we dont want fuck unfiltered, only lmfao.

Edit, also kk has a point.

lmfao is used for emphasis. As has been said. Yes, you could say lmao or lol, but saying that doesnt really EMPHASISE the amount of laughing youre actually doing. In any case, ANSWER THE ABOVE QUESTION

Then you won't mind if its changed, due to it doesnt affect you in any way.

If I see no need for it to be changed - basically I dont want it changed so I would mind. Its been filtered for how ever long so why the need to change it how and how wouldnt it affect me?

Piss has always been filtered, it no longer is, thus other words can be removed too.

Two points.

Once again, it seems like a dictatorship. Its like the poll all over again. Because management dont want it, it will not get changed.

Secondly, habbo had it filtered for however long but they changed it. We've had rules on this forum that havnt changed for however long, and they've been changed. I see no reason as to why it cant be

Not without modifying code which then means it has to be updated for each vB version and then doing that still doesn't avoid filter avoidance because if you avoid it for someone who has the filter enabled it's still worth a pm/warning/infraction.

So it solves nothing and wont work.
