Can we get those "Graal ***ness" sigs removed? They are ugly, annoying, and they violate the censor rules.

Thanks. :)

I've never seen you make a post/thread without complaining about something.

I see no derogatory remarks or bashing toward anyone in the signatures. Didn't they teach you not to tattle-tale in kindergarten?

Evidently, you don't read much.

Didn't they teach you to follow the rules in kindergarten?

It does violate rules. The word is censored in posts...by making it an image in a signature it's bypassing the word filter.

Hey, I'd like to have your signature removed because it's not what I want to see in your signature. I want to see Hansel and Grettel in your signature, not these seemingly pointless quotes!

There is no point to this thread or your request, because it is merely an unoffensive expression of opinion. If these signatures were harming people or blatantly breaking rules, then I would see reason to have them removed, but they are not breaking rules.

The censor is in place to stop derogatory use of the word, and these signatures are not derogatory use.

If you do not want to see the signatures, then your best option is to disable them. There's an option for that in your User CP.

So if I make an image of the said word and use it in posts, its fine?

Exactly. The word *** is censored so people don't say that’s ***, meaning stupid. This however does not mean stupid, and is not a derogatory slang use of the word. The word *** is not offencive, while the word **** is, so it's cencored. (that was the f word btw). Theres no good reson to censor '***' if it means happy or homosexual (in a positive way)

Clearly, you have no understanding of the rules.

It is bypassing the word filter. If bypassing the world filter is allowed as long as it doesn't attack anybody, then I should be able to put dictionary definitions of whatever word I want in my signature.

You are not the person who gets to decide why the censor is in place, I'm afraid.


Sexual orientation does not need to be on these forums, and currently, the word in question which relates to sexual orientation is restricted by the word filter. Offending signatures should be removed.

So you'd be just as mad if it said graal homosexuality

Clearly, you failed to interpret my post correctly.
Whatever word you want may not be acceptable. There is nothing inacceptable about sexual orientation.
Nowhere have I suggested that I am.
While you're at it, you should just call that the moderators remove everything that makes a person who they are, such as skin, gender, eye colour, shoe size! Like I said, there is nothing inacceptable about sexual orientation, so why screen it from the forums?

I'm not mad, I'm more annoyed.

The point is not, however, what I feel like. It is about the rules. In this particular arena, the rules are being broken. If it said Graal Homosexuality, I couldn't really go after it on these grounds.

So you'd find a differnet way to go after it? What about graal starightness?

Copout. Maybe you didn't state your post clearly!
That's not what is up for debate. It is the legality of bypassing the word filter.
You just tried to define its purpose.

Argue it with the moderators. It bypasses the filter, and that is all that matters.

Yes, I would probably find another way to go after it.

Graal Straightness doesn't really bother me as much because I am a homophobe, so I probably wouldn't go after it. However, I would assume someone else might.

The idea was that you interpret the meaning behind it - that you do not always get what you want.
Can you think of another sensible explanation?
I am not the one arguing with moderators.
Returning to my original point, you do not always get what you want.

I will ignore your last statements.

Well, thats like admitting you're racist. Somone needs some homosexual friends, you fear the steryotype, but it's not like that.
