Sydney · #3 09-21-2001, 04:59 AM

Yeah, the word fuck was recently added to the censor list.

But what to do about people that post things like fuc or fuk or fukc?
You get what it means, but the program...

Danny · #6 09-21-2001, 08:50 AM

it doesn't really make much difference: if you see four asterisks, you know someone's used the f word...

Cool Paramite · #7 09-21-2001, 10:14 AM

I never use the F word. If I want, I post **** myself.

I agree with Rett... I mean, if you have four asterisks, your still gonna know what the word is. Its the same if you have Fuc or Fuk or the f word or ****. They're all equally obscene.
btw..I will never post fuc or something like this again...just proving a point.

Any other words that made the censor list?

I just added it to the censor list because I noticed it was being used quite a lot one day. Things were looking a little ugly.

If someone really wants to express themselves using a swearword, then I'm sure they will manage to find some way to avoid the censor feature. It's no big deal.

Of course you're going to know that someone has said the F word if you see ****, but you have to agree that asterixes just don't have the same impact as the actual word.
