Filter

[xxMATTGxx]

yeah but only you could see it & would be default for the filter to be enabled anyway

habbo has the same policy as this & this is a habbo fan site so it kinda ties in aswell

Either way, it won't be happening I'm afraid.

I'm not one for swearing, but i see where your coming from. If Habbo has the option to turn it off and it's for 11+ yet habbox doesn't and this is aimed for 13+ it is slightly strange.
But personally it doesn't trouble me. Why do people need to swear on a forum, the only thing that it would be used for is insults which is against Habbox policy anyway.

Unless you can put into context where swearing is neccerssary than there is no need for it surley?

No i totaly understand this. I'm against unfilterign all the words.

I was just accepting it was strange that Habbo's audience goes younger than Habbox and they have the option.

aww problem is if we unfilter that people will want more and more and more and more and more and then eventually they'll want me to take my clothes off or something.

**** can be used in a dodgy way so yeh... sorry!

According to Habbo the age is 13 or over.

Oh thats odd, i never knew that

The argument that words do not remain on the Habbo client and they do on a discussion forum is relevant here. We don't the forum full of swearing as it just looks immature and messy. The word tit will remain in the forum for a similar reason.

People use the "but the forum is full of older users" argument and that in itself is flawed. The older members should be more mature and therefore not need to use swear words when discussing things on a forum. It's for discussion and, if you want this discussion to be mature (we do have an older userbase after all) then we don't need to unfilter anything further and neither do we need the option to turn the filter on or off.
