Filtered Word

[Catzsy]

I don't care if it has been brought up before, i think they whole swearing rules, and filtered words need to be re thought out, to make it more fitting to the way kids talk these days!

So you think the answer is going to be any different after 3 weeks? Tell me one positive thing about the need to swear.

It offers one a larger vocabulary

Now I'm all for the filter/swearing rules to be laxed a little but bitch is a word that will only cause offence unless it's used in the pets section.
You say you always call people *******? (Not sure if you were joking) I'm sure they love that, where as your friends may be fine with it anyone that doesn't know you who happens to stumble a cross a thread with you calling everyone "*******" is just going to steer clear or call you a bitch back then you will get offended because some random person just called you a ***** .

Think of it like this, how many threads in the last year have been created about dogs? The word is filtered because people would be like "stupid *****", it'd be used as an insult not in reference to a female dog. My view has changed on the filter, it pisses me off how we are limited on posting rap due to swearing but they said no so just accept it, it's a habbo fansite after all.

Can't a member of management just say the words filtered are going to remain filtered, these threads get created at least once a month and they are pointless as ****, if the answer is no just bloody tell them its a no lol.

Here I was tempted to use the beloved "double facepalm" image.

Admittedly I get sick with these threads every couple of months but you don't get when you don't ask. However, I think some common sense needs to be used here that any swear word can be used in a jokey way providing the person you're saying it to thinks it's a joke. Personally I do not want to see "you little *****, that was my idea!" or something like that scattered around the forums because it isn't appropriate. Similarly I wouldn't want any swear word, especially when it's directed at someone (notice how I've put especially in italics incase someone decides that a filter needs to be rethought out if it isn't towards someone :rolleyes on the forums constantly.

Tbh with you, I always feel that if someone has a constant need to swear, their vocabulary seriously lacks maturity.

The word isn't going to be unfiltered, no one will use it for talking about dogs and anyone who wants to use it will most likely use it aimed at someone and so on. These threads do happen all the time and we aren't changing the way the filter works, we aren't having an opt-in system (in before that gets asked again) and we will only unfilter words if they have been filtered by mistake or there is no actual reason for the word to be filtered in the first in place.

I don't think there is anything else to discuss about this as it's a no and that no isn't changing so, thread closed.
