Censorship overkill!

[Boomyal]

In my reply under Time & Dems, I couldn't even use Senator Gephardt's first name withhout it being replaced by ****.<br /><br />I even tried by de-capitalizing it so you'al wouldn't think that I was trying to call him a big ****.<br /><br />Then I tried to add an affectionate 'y' on the end of his first name, to camaflouge it. All I got was ****y.<br /><br />I guess the moral of the story is " a **** by any other name is still a ****."

How true!!<br /><br />You can't even say "****** Cancer" (Brea$t Cancer)!!<br /><br />I think that there are certain words with duel meanings that should not be censored, but I guess the mods are doing their best.<br /><br />Guess we'll have to live with it.

Re: Censorship overkill!

mods got nothing to do with it. it's a filter on<br />the server that auomatically blocks certain words.<br />try Richard next time...

Yep, there are just certain words that the censor part of servers will change.<br /><br />Been there, done that, but being who I am, I can work around that if I wanted to. <br /><br />But then, it would be poof city again.

SBN,<br /><br />That other site changes a word for you, instead of just ******* it to death?<br /><br />That seems to me, to be a better way to go about censoring something!<br /><br />But thats just my opinion.

Re: Censorship overkill!

No MY, it ain't.<br />Remember the server is a machine or program and we are human beings with real thinking brains.<br /><br />Not some program that has some thinking brain what to do.
