Bobba Filter and Age Requirment

[Corey777]

Me neither, they rules aren't harsh enough...

Before reading this, please note that I am Canadian.

I Do not undrstand why you say the United States' rules arent harsh enough?

They are VERY strict on Drugs, theft, and swearing.

They even have many shows about crime and to stop it like: American Justice, America's most wanted etc..

I don't know what they do in England, but I do know that America is harsh.

As for the facts about Bush, I couldn't care less whether its Bush or Kerry, I don't like either :p.

This is simply a matter of oppinion, lots of young people say 'Oh I don't care about swearing I don't find it offensive'
You have to think to yourself, you're not the only person on the planet, the vast majority of people do find swearing offensive.
If 0% of the worlds population didn't care about swearing Habbo would be ok to remove the filter.

1. Why do you not like firefox, is it the new version.
2. America don't treat youths as strongly as us, american teens swear at police, cuase damage and are always in detention, on the other hand, their rules are extremely harsh. You are set back a year or grade for getting lower than a D, In England I don't think some schools care as we have things called Special Needs etc.

[Corey777]

I guess on some things, US is strict, and others the UK is more strict.

Just leave it at that :p

Stop making situations easy, debating other things that are pointless is pointlessy fun...

The reason the bobba filter is censoring everything is because there are children on habbo. if they raise the age requirement to at least 14 then most words would be able to get taken off the bobba filter, there are words that teenagers can say that an 11 year old is forbidden to say. Kids are ruining habbo hotel. what person 14 or older doesn't say **** at LEAST once a week. I say it just about everyday.

another thing. The words on the bobba filter are gettign too much. it's sad that they think the word drug is a dirty filthy word that should never be said on habbo and heaven fobid if you ever should say it, yet the word gay is left completly uncenscored. So that means I can walk up to someone and say "heya stupid gay, get away from me I don't swing that way" but heaven forbid if I say "I love drugs"

They couldnt add the word gay to the bobba filter as there would be an outrage, that would be like saying being gay is wrong (I'm not saying that I am gay before any n00b makes a reply saying that).
They can add the word drug because im sure habbo dont want people talking about drugs.

Gommeinc U realy do watch far far to much tv, americas dumbist crimnals and most wanted arent the normal occurance.
Anyways i hate bush cnat see how he won. Plus i dont understan what makes swring offencive? its just pople with sick minds taking normal words out of context. best exsampl is **** or ****per, its what the orignl flushing toilet was called, mr ****per give u that great invntion and then u tahnk hom by makes his name a suposedly rude word. doing that is sick, not swaring.

Hmm well if they lowered the limit not only would there be a revolt, ppl wud sneak in as they already do. Anyway why should they take the effort when every1 avoids the filter neway?

[Simonac55]

Sometimes, I can say the filter is going a little bit crazy on the words but it is here to maintain safety. Some parents don't want their children to see bad words on a website and use them at home. We all have a different way to react to different situations.

[GommeInc]

True but it should be the child and the parents to blame if they see a noughty word, they know the consepuences they deal with em.
