Simple answer to this.... don't use vulgar words.caesar2 wrote:Once I spelled vulgarity wrong, sure... in like 12 years in school nobody teached me how to spell vulgar words. i was warned for masking.
I dont know what about is this topic and whats bebitas problem, but yeah few mods are to blind and "blac&white".
We have a rule about language, but it contraindicate the rule about masking. How the hell can someone be warned for gramer mistake. Like... when you wanna mask something like this "H.ead" thats clear masking, if you write "Haed" thas miclick or just mistake. However... rule about masking is stupid, mods should just edit the post and send verbal warning, because mostly ppl dont wanna make mistakes ... and for mods... of course... is hard to decide what was mean like masking and what not.
Masking vs Language rule...

Re: silly mods
The majority of the time it's an attempt to get around the filter, the example being "H.ead" like you used, putting in extra symbols. Most words even if you mix up the order, like haed, will still be filtered. If not then the filter for that word doesn't have wildcards. I can't think of any instance where I warned for masking and it could've been mistaken spelling.caesar2 wrote:Once I spelled vulgarity wrong, sure... in like 12 years in school nobody teached me how to spell vulgar words. i was warned for masking.

If you read Ceasar2's post again you will see that he was using head as an example of mis-spelling a word. He was and no one else was saying head is a vulgar word. It was an example of mis-spelling and masking.bebita wrote:head is a vulgar word ?

Re: silly mods
that fellow there used the word "head" as example, so that he would not be warned for using a word on the filter. It was quite safe, since it is not on the filter (and unless the english language changes significantly very soon, it will never be on it)...

In the name of the gods, Browsers shall be changed to carry the internet out amongst the peoples and we will spread Firefox to all the unbelievers. The power of the Firefox will be felt far and wide and the wicked users of IE shall be converted to use the true browsers."

Re: silly mods
tool is not a vulgar word and if that's the case then start warning/banning people for idiot, moron and other such words which are not warned for. And if 'blow me' is a angry retort which is warn/ban-able lets add others too like bite me, suck it, screw you, go to hell, ect. cause that's the way its being used.

Ifrit, these are vulgar terms.
tool = **Filtered**: obscene terms for penis. - Obviously this word can be used in context if you are referring to a mechanical instrument, but something tells me he was not calling someone a mechanical instrument.
"get on your knees and blow me" - Seriously Ifrit? Not profane? Bite me is not a sexual expression, screw you is not a sexual expression, and go to hell is definitely not. But blow me is and especially with the addition of "get on your knees". What do you think someone is doing when they get on their knees and "blow" someone.

okay I didn't efficiently read, apparently I missed the "get on your knees" part. definitely inappropriate.
tool= one who lacks the mental capacity to know he is being used. A fool. A cretin. Characterized by low intelligence and/or self-esteem. someone who tries too hard. a poser. someone who is a complete idiot. one who is used by other people, and usually doesn't even realize it. someone who can't think for themselves. an asshat. I don't think they were calling them a penis, but could be wrong.

Re: silly mods
If that's the case they should use the word fool. There can be no defence for using the word tool by saying I didn't mean it as in **Filtered** I meant it as in fool.Iƒrit wrote:tool= one who lacks the mental capacity to know he is being used.

if that's the case the should have used the word **Filtered**, **Filtered**, penis or however you wanna word it instead of tool.... touche?
Are we to assume its always gonna be a obscenity when someone uses a word with multiple meanings cause I guess that means typing ass is out of the question??

Re: silly mods
Ifrit look at it from other angles. If someone wanted to say tool (meaning fool) then they should just write fool, it's the same spelling just replacing the t with an f.Iƒrit wrote:Clarkey wrote:If that's the case they should use the word fool.

Also look at the actual quote that Bebita posted..... you yourself admitted the get on your knees bit is definitely inappropriate. Taking that vulgarity and profanity in to account you really think the word tool meant anything less than **Filtered**?
I'll also note that this issue wouldn't even be here if Bebita wasn't so eager to laugh and humiliate another player by posting the message on this public forum.
Then the word would have been filtered and there would be no problem.Iƒrit wrote:if that's the case the should have used the word **Filtered**, **Filtered**, penis or however you wanna word it instead of tool.... touche?

Re: silly mods
Screw you is as much a sexual expression as **Filtered** you. Mostly because they're the exact same thing.

I disagree.
Yes the term "screwing" is used to describe a sexual act, however, the term "screw you" is an offensive term rather than sexual. It's the same meaning as piss off, now piss off isn't a sexual term.
