We aren't 5

[Niall!]

You do know that by making idiot an insult after so long, you are treating people like little kids?

I mean come on, it shows even in school. You call someone an idiot and don't get in trouble. But on here you do.

I think MAD is a bit odd if he takes idiot as an insult.

[JackBuddy]

Tell me about it. If it is such a sin to say it then why is it not filtered with the other insults?

[Simmzay]

A lot of the time it's actually true, too.

i wouldn't say that MAD isn't 5

I agree with the thread started, if they still say idiot is an insult, they're treating us like we are much young. I mean, at the teenager age like most of us here, we know swear words that most adults don't, we find them on things like urban dictionary

Shurrup, idiot.

It's like calling someone a stupid head as opposed to a REMOVED

Lol and that can't be considered rude because it's random, which makes it funny and laughable. If anyone takes that as an insult they seriously need a smach with the get real stick

I would like it if Habbox Forum aimed to please their target audience which are teenagers and not this idea that we/they are all 10 or so. The excuse "children use this forum" doesn't mean anything, because those children shouldn't be on a forum which is for teenagers, if Habbox did allow children, they'll be suggesting Habbo is for children, which it isn't. Habbo is a "hangout for teens" which means anything related, e.g. Habbox should also be by teens for teens. They can't even use the excuse "Habbo has this filtered, that filtered and those filtered" because Habbox Forum has had these problems for a while now, even before Habbox became official and Habbo couldn't doa thing unless there were illegal activities going on.

This rule has been in place before I was even a moderator .

The reason for it being against the rules is that it causes arguments. If I call you an idiot, you will call me something back and I will reply to that and others will get involved and it will make the thread go out of hand and off topic. It's not so much the fact you are calling someone an idiot that is the problem (at least the way I see it), it's the consequence that things like this cause.

Simply put, insulting another user will cause an argument and make the atmosphere very bad.

The reason it's not on the filter is because it can be used in other ways that are not insulting and isn't inappropriate to younger members like words we have filtered.

Plus if you are saying you are old and mature etc, then I am sure you can control yourself and ignore people who you feel the need to call an idiot .

Also, you're complaining saying 'why's it not filtered' but if it was filtered, you'd still all be complaining because of that.
