Much as I hate to defend Peter, it ISN'T censored. Wanker. See?

Thanks... I think I said this on TGA, but I'll say it again. Sorry for being a jerk.

Agh! Look! LOOK!!!

As for the swearing, the words so far not allowed are:
Wank*r

I didn't mean that was censored like this: ******. I meant that it wasn't allowed. And gosh-darn it, it should be!

Morgo, 'vaginal fart' sounds much better than 'jerk'.

heh, I kept reposting that, and surprisingly enough, my posts kept being deleted...I wonder why..

Luke, the words in the "bad words" list ARE all censored with asterisks. ****. ****. *******. See? Peter made another post later on, saying that Wanker was allowed. Back down quickly before Peter himself gets here and proves you wrong (now wouldn't THAT be humiliating?)...

People make mistakes, Danny ;)

But, about the swearing censors, tell me the words you wish to be censored, and not.

Majority wins!

The rules of swearing will be lifted depending on what people want and don't want based on majority.
Alright. Words like sh*t and f*ck actually should be censored. This goes against everything I stand for, but now that OWI seems to be shifting it's focus towards a younger audience, it would be common courtesy to censor out some of the more harsh words that smaller kids may not wish to hear. To put it another way, the list of censored words should be almost the same as it was before all of the unpleasentness. Words that are more tame, like wanker, *****, cunt, and bastard, should be allowed. Remember, the Oddworld games do (or did) have a small amount of swearing.

EDIT: Whoops! I forgot the word "p*ssy" was censored... well, now you know what the "mystery word" is! :rolleyes:

I think it's quite simple - do not censor swearing, just give a Warning whenever someone swears at somebody... After all, there are plenty of times when you can deeply and deliberately offend another member without swearing, and plenty of occasions when you can swear without offending anyone...

CENSORSHIP
 
I agree with Danny. Don't censor words but if someone is constantly and needlessly swearing give them warnings. If they continue, ban them.

Alcar 09-23-2002 11:39 PM

Okay, I agree.

*will post announcement soon about it*

This is laughable, all this trouble just to have it go back to what it was (or almost).
