Badword filter

two above refresh the page and read my edited post.

You have just basicly said in your post that it is acceptable to call 'types' of people that word, which in my opinion is offensive.

Wait a minute... Uh, did you just admit you wanted it unfiltered so you can use it as an insult? I sort of got that impression when you said that O_o

I did too. I personally don't think it should be unfiltered. The arguement that
young people use the word doesn't mean it's right to use it and it is pretty offensive, I agree.

Hmm... I get what you mean, but idiot & moron are taken much more lightly in schools. Barely noticeable actually, but 'mentally disabled' is taken as offensive in some schools. What youre best to do is to just wait, because they might consider unfiltering it but it's really the forum management's decision to.

Don't hold your breath.

The word has been brought up to describe certain types of people and used as an insult. One does not say " ohh ree... " for the sake of it, it's general useage is offensive.

You don't have a pretty valid reason as to why it should be unfiltered, if you want to use an expression use something that is not rude and offensive.

I'd just like you to know I came accross the idea when describing someone who I despise of. (not on this forum)

you do know that ****** isn't just used as an insult, it is actually a type of person.

When you say that you blatently mean it in an offensive way. I'd just give up on pushing the issue, it probably won't happen. Especially in the way you've contradicted yourself quite badly... Mmmm, I guess it's the future which will deciiiiiide.

and yes, i do know it's a type of person, whether he/she be disabled or mentally incapable/disabled.

I'm not thinking straight at the moment. Before I go offline i'll post this for you guys to read through which proves my point that it is a type of person http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mental_******ation

By the way they describe that, I get the impression you're trying to describe someone dyslexic O_o Anyway, night dude.

I'm not questioning the meaning of the word Just why it's filtered when it's not a very bad word at all.

I mean... 7 year olds use it and the minimum age for this forum is 11, not 6 like most of the staff behave as it is.

These days, seven year olds use a lot of inappropriate words.

I'll rephrase that: 7 years ago 7 year olds used the word reqularly and don't even get told off by any present adult.
