There were no warnings issued at all, So, going by that, this topic can be locked?

@Jim Yes it's filtered, it's not the most pleasant of things around to refer to...

i got a verbal warning for using the word on a recruit thread by universe

Did you get a warning point? One with the fancy PM's attached? Did you get a note, saying you will receive a warning next time someone would give you a verbal warning? Umm..

No. You didn't. We can tell. :-D

No, it's not still just a warning.

A verbal warning is like a slap on the wrist, letting you know to check yourself next time.
An official warning is one that counts against you and counts towards a ban.

And, if you use the word and it's filtered so be it, but if you bypass the filter, for any filtered word, you will be warned for masking/filter evasion
/argument.

''Consider this your verbal warning. The use of profanity is not tolerated.


In fact, this is public. Anyone of you found to use profanity after this point will receive a warning.''


so what im saying is that the word wasnt filtered at this point had i keep saying the word i would have eventually got a warning which would have counted towards a ban..



so we opened a thread up here to discuss to word ..
