You dont honestly believe that everyone that has or may come here in the future is 20+ years old do you (or whatever age you feel vulgar language is appropriate)?

20+ is an extraordinary age at which to start trusting people to read naughty words. How old do you think people should have to be before they have sex? 50? I certainly knew all the bad words by the time I was 8 or 9, and I learnt them at an older age than most of my peers.

I honestly believe that every single person who comes here is aware of naughty words and knows what the censored words mean (or the equivalents in whatever language they speak natively). This is a technical site about a game from the 1990s; I don't think we get any 5-year-olds.
 
We have bigger problems than people calling chavs and chavettes a bunch of King Canutes.

Oh great, the one swear word we can say, and now we can't say it.

And I won't even go into how ridiculous it is to censor swearwords when we all know what is being said...

Well I am sorry for pointing it out though.

A do like the way sl reworded everything though =] gives me quite a chuckle.

As for that, I am 19, does this mean I am not allowed to cuss in general for your standards? not just on this forum?
EDIT: oops forgot some.

You may have known all the bad words by the time you were 8 or 9, but did you know what they all meant? I for one, didn't know that said 'female genitalia' was actually female genitalia until i was around 12. As for the majority of them, yes I knew what they meant at an early age. Then again, most of us on here have a higher than average level of intelligence. I dont know the reasoning for that, but it is just something I have seemed to notice over the little time I have been here(No yelling at me for stereotypes! This ones a good one).

EDIT: (yes again) I forgot something else.

None was intended, perhaps get your detector recalibrated?

Actually I thought you were being sarcastic about me saying that Jackass was a good show, or that Jersey Shore is a horrible show, in which case, sarcasm would most definitely fit. At that point I hadn't realized that you edited my post and changed the naughty words.

Which is worse: censoring naughty words or being blocked by, say, Australia's Great Firewall for profanity?  It hasn't come to that yet, but I'm sure someone will do it; think of the children!

I do agree with you 100% that it isn't a big deal. But at the same time, we should be free to talk how we talk. I understand we need to keep the forums clean as it is a 'family friendly' forum, but I feel as though if we are not using profanity to attack somebody, then there is no harm in it. I dont know, maybe it is just the way I was brought up, swearing was never a problem, and nobody in my family would be like, OH MY GOD, if somebody cursed. It was just a normal thing. So maybe I am a bit biased as to thinking it should be ok.

Then a child is more likely to be corrupted by the perverted wordfilter! ;D

There is plenty of evidence to the contrary. Of course, you're new, so you've missed a lot of lulz. Let's just say that if you'd been here for the past two years, yuo wouldn't be so hasty to say that the site's average IQ is particularly high.

Australians don't deserve to come here because of their cowardice in not assassinating all of their major politicians. Srsly, I thought Britain was bad, but you really do have the ultimate nanny state over there. An enemy of the internet! Barely better than China!

And I tend to skulk the forums now and then, and have read up on some of the stuff that has happened but not been deleted. But I did say that MOST people here are intelligent, and every stereotype does not fit everybody!

EDIT: Removed something because I am being incredibly stupid today. Read too quickly and didnt realize exactly what Kudi said.. All better now ;)

Personally I swear all the time, in fact i swear so much i do not realize I am doing it. But to some people it is offensive, and for me to say go ahead and swear all you want and to hell with anyone that may be offended by it is not very fair. So the compromise is the word filter which does not really change the meaning things too much but gets rid of vulgarity. And if people are still offended by it, well to hell with them.

I say to hell with them because... Well fuck it, a sound can't hurt you.  Therefore fuck fuck fuckedy fuck fuck fuck
 
I personally swear a whole lot! I can't stop swearing! I swear for breakfast, lunch, and dinner ;)
 
i swear all the f*cking time, it feels good and i'm used to it (you'd swear like a trucker to if you had my little brother).

swearing f*cking rocks!

they're just words after all that some weirdos decided weren't good

Well fuck them.  I have a tendency to make truckers shudder at the things I say
 
I too think the censoring is ridiculous for a forum of this nature, but also don't care enough to take it up with Qhimm about allowing it.  So for now we'll deal with a few filters and/or asterisks.

Yeah it really isnt a big deal, most people should know what is being said anyway. But honestly if he wont give you the go ahead with changing up the format to make things more understandable then I highly doubt he will do anything about the filter.
 
Well we can change the word filter right now. It's not something we need to get qhimm to do.
 
BTW, I was joking. Everybody knows I have a thing for swearing. Its not a big deal this forum is over 10 years old I don't see the need to change the way it does things at this point. My 2 pennies ;)...
 
From NJ, to Jersey Shore, to profanity, to filter, and to profanity again.  ;D

Haha, were in completely unrelated, oh well. At the same time, it is all related to NJ somehow.

Jersey Shore - If you dont seee how it is related, I dont think you are smart enough, get off the damn computer and go back to school.

Profanity - There is profanity in every state so I say that it is related no matter which state we speak of.

Finally filter - 90% of people in NJ need to have a filter between their brain and voice box. The profanity doesnt bother me, but there are a decent amount of people who need to learn when to shut their damn mouths.
 
Actually, I feel as if the adamant discussion on how important swearing is to everyone, is actually relevant to how pertinent Jersey Shore is in modern day life...
