This forum is for teenagers isn't it?

[GommeInc]

GommeInc, I agree, however I was discussing the fact that even people of ages older than "teenagers" wouldn't use the word, so saying we're teenagers thus it shouldn't be filtered doesn't make a difference.

You made no such discussion in the previous posts :/ You just said you wouldn't say it to the Queen, the Queen is someone which should be considered with utmost respect and should not be someone to engage in masterbation discussions anyway, especially when people who do tend to see her, only see her for a few seconds. Your point isn't at all valid :/

And people older than teenagers do use the word, there's no age limit. It's just not discussed because there's no point in discussing it day in and day out, but that shouldn't limit to completely blotting it out, when masterbation comes into play when you are a teenager and is a completely mature discussion when you let it be, which is what it would be because if it wasn't mature the 4 letter W word would come into play.

When you look at the words allowed, masterbation and its other words are all fine to be used, especially when the main words which make up a discussion of masterbation, i.e. penis and vagina, are already unfiltered.

Technically speaking, if it were to be unfiltered, just don't tell the majority because all hell will break loose. That lesson was learnt when the 5 letter word used to describe being poked with a needle was unfiltered, though it was re-filtered just when discussions of "P" were dying down

Either way, it is pointlessly filtered. I'd be interested to see what reasons would be to keep it filtered, and I suspect very minor and irrational reasons which are so small but ruin it. The word itself doesn't break any forum rules, it is neither rude nor unacceptable unless people want it to be..

im sure that even 'naive teenagers' would have heard a naughty word before

You are all correct. Teenagers forum, Queen different class, and so on.

However I still believe the word should be filtered due to the discussions and conversations it could lead to.

You answered your question in your other question...

This forum is for teenagers. The more naive teenager (or the younger ones), may not be exposed to such discussion. The word is rude - you wouldn't say it when talking to the Queen for example.

Additionally, the word could be filtered due to the fact that the discussion could lead on to even ruder discussions and words.

Lol'd at that, i find more that the younger the teenager the more dirty minded they are, and the more suitable they feel to use these words.
Well from where i'm from they are, i knew nearly every dirty word before i even hit the comprehensive schools :eusa_clap

Like what? Masterbation is the proper word to use so it won't be funny to discuss by default. It's only funny to discuss masterbation when substitute words are put in place. The only discusions would be:

Oh look, Jake's masterbating again

Hardly worthy of an article in The Mail in terms of rudeness, and in context harmless. It will only be bad to use when mentioned mid-thread of something serious - but that goes for anything, like saying "Penis and vagina!" mid-thread about something serious.

Keeping it filtered solves very little really, when you can use alternatives even though the actual word is mature and accurate, it's only the alternatives that are the ones to worry about.

No, it's a forum for Habbo users and other people who wish to be a part of the community.

hi nvr

incase u havnt realised habbo is aimed at 13+ yr olds. that's teens. stop bein so pedantic.

in other news, mastErbation is stupidly filtrd cos it is sex with urself, isn't it? and sex isn't filtered. @whoever said u wouldn't say it to the queen - just go and take a huge lol at urself

We all like to have a good mass debate Okay, sorry, couldn't resist.

I agree with Richie. If there's trouble with any offensive words, I'm sure a moderator will swoop down on their prey and remove it, so I don't see why the less-offensive words should be on the filter (like ***** and massdebate etc).

*oops it's not unfiltered yet. the one that there was a thread about earlier.

Yeah but I wouldn't say to Barack Obama "how is your sex life?" "is your wife kinky and horny?" "how nice are ur wife's honkers?" etc etc. The Queen, Osamabama, anyone. It dain't matter. It's a fact of life my friend. If it stays filtered sex might as well be filtered.

ur agumnt is flwed.

Why not?
I would want to be different and say 'WASSUP LIZZIE' if I ever met the Queen. I probably wouldn't dare but I'd so want to, hehe.

Your argument makes no sense though. There will be no Queens or Presidents on Habbox Forum (until nvr becomes President Nvrspk the Fourth). It's just a group of teenagers where the majority of them know exactly what ************ is.
