Your question has been already answered a few pages back:

What I believe is totally irrelevant to the matter.

If it was only up to me, there would have been no filter at all.

But it is not me making the rules but the owner of this forum and the admins appointed by him, so whatever they decide I have to respect.

The thing with filtering stuff is that people won't learn. Either we filter, or we warn, simple thing. Not at all that difficult, I'd say? If we were to filter 'nigger', that means anyone can use it without persecution. If we don't, the swines who use it will receive a warning as soon as we notice. So the MOST offensive words are not filtered, in order to allow the full extent of the rules to smack down on the verbally challenged who'd use it.. less offensive, but rather prevalent words are on the filter. (And the most common expressions used during anger, including the 'Filthy Five'. Well known to fans of Howard Stern.)

also I might add filtering is complex as the word nigger for instance (No disrespect intended using only for illustration purposes) could be used in the word Snigger, eg to snigger at someone, and if it was filtered it would read like s"*filtered*", or something along those lines.

U have to look at the wordthat is to be filtered and think of the consequenses.

Kojak.

And i'm sorry Uni i disagree completely i'd rather here Filtered even if it was supposed to be an offensive word then even read you lot write the N word... truthfully i dislike that word alot... i have used it, to prove a point and that is it... it has no meanting to be here at all... get rid of it if your going to get rid of others... i don't care... it's wrong to have here... it is not the proper place... seriously this is a pg-13 area, and that word is beyond pg-13 hell it shouldn't even be in R i'm sorry but it needs to be changed...

(Sorry for the double post didn't mean to)

Kojak.
It would read **Filtered**, and in the end, NewSpeak will be "**Filtered** /end of **Filtered**" (note how the word "post" is filtered because "Piece of **Filtered**" is offensive, and this is an acronym)..

Kojak does have the right idea though.

By extension, you would let murderers go free, because the act of murder is too horrible to mention? :? Seriously, I'm too tired to go and argue with you on this.. but it should be pretty obvious. Especially for you.
