    Wait so you're saying that a spoiler stops the young users watching the video??? I'd say it makes them want to watch it more... DO NOT PRESS.. soooo tempting

    Then I stand down, Although am I the only one who still reads the *** as the swear word, and the filter does nothing in the sense of filtering?

    I agree with this, temptation comes in to play.

    Would you rather we just stopped you from posting videos that contain swearing? We allow you to post videos that swear in a spoiler as well as post images that contain mild swearing in spoilers as it avoids the filter. The rule is there as they avoid the filter but videos are allowed to be posted as longs they are in a spoiler.

    It gives users a fair warning as to what is inside. Whether they click it after that is down to them.

    do you ******* mind ;l;l!!

    i don't see the point in even discussing this. it's one of the things that comes up every couple of months and it's the same every single time; the majority of users think swearing is harmless and the filter is pointless, yet management still insist that younger users may be corrupted and brainwashed by such vulgar, hurtful language. i think it's time that Habbox starts to cater for the majority, to be honest. we're not children and we're not exempt from all this in real life, so why put us all in a cotton wool ball here?

    It is too tempting, I mean I click the spoiler in your signature everytime I see you post and I even know what it says off by heart that's how tempting it is. I get a good kick out of MattG's grammar mistake aimed at Infectious.

    Why... sorry but SOME people at 12-13 can act way more mature than someone over 16 - what a stupid and ageist idea.

    :S Think you've totally twisted my words? Some people seem to think because they've been on the forum a long time we should just do everything we are told to do. There isn't going to be a poll put up because it's not going to change lol.
