Censorship on the forum

BiffLowmanBiffLowman ✭✭✭✭✭ Graduate

Just wondering y'all's thoughts? I don't read/belong to too many forums but I don't believe that they censor what is written. I understand that it's their board and they can do what they want and I get that. I'm just wondering if y'all have been to other boards where they censor? Bad words? Really?

Btw, I was censored for typing v.o.m.i.t.

    I responded to one of your earlier posts and used the word ****...see what happened? I am thinking it must be some sort of algorithm (although I really don't know what those are) since it happens instantaneously. Surely someone is smart enough to change the algorithm to something more sensible. Levander, any suggestions?

    Rather complete list. Thanks. I may steal more than a few for personal use.

    It's just the coding on the back end of the site. It's simply a list of filthy words that can't be used in a comment. When you submit a comment, the site breaks down your comment and searches for any words in said list and replaces them with asterisks.

    I wonder who the geniuses are that make up the list of verboten words?

    I don't mind keeping it clean, though I am curious about some of the words that are censored.

    The word list they use for blacking out is absolutely ridiculous. Somebody somewhere along the way completely half-assed it and nobody checked their work.

    But censoring ideas is the real problem when it comes to censoring. Not just censoring specific words. Censoring words is just something non-serious people do because they have it in their head that if they don’t, someone will come in and just start cursing all over the place,
