Forum Bug.

draygin · #1 06-20-2003, 09:37 PM

Ok this is more of not thinking before doing than a bug. But thanks to some one thinking it was a great idea to make F-T-O a censored word when put together ***. I cant say words like roo***p (roof-top) with out getting it bleeped. Yes I'm aware that It's because of initials of Lord Helmut's game he's making. But its also a rather big annoyance because I cant type some things that are appropriate with out getting censored. What next eq will be bleeped so we cant type out words like equity-**uity? x.x Please if some one could go through the swear filter and fix things like this It's not like people are going around talking about it any more and if they are they should be banned or suspended temporarily. You shouldn't punish every one else on the boards because a few cant follow the rules.

Most people wouldn't even know what F-T-O meant, I sure don't.

It stands for the initials of a game that a Graal players is making that unixmad is apprently threatened by.

What is I? I dont know what it is. Maybe a database of "bad" words could be made.

I think you misread my post.

Kaimetsu · #6 06-21-2003, 04:16 AM

There was talk of pruning the bad word list a little, but I don't know what happened to that.

That sort of contradicts blocking them out, no?

It would be nice if the word block list was reduced a bit. The whole F-T-O thing is kind of pointless, obviously. If anyone really want to talk about it they would probably just use the full name.

It is a word, dude. 'Roof top' is clumsy, as are 'roof-top', 'roof_top' and 'roofytoopy'.

osrs · #11 06-21-2003, 03:26 PM

Why do you want to say 'roof-top'? ^_^'

I say roo***p and if you had half a brain you probably would too. But no I expect to much of you you're more in the business of ripping off midi's than knowing what are actual words.

you never know man! Like, just tomorrow a thread could srping up in NGR about roo***ps. What shape is yours? Can you stand on it easily? What about color? ;]

There are other words though...like le***vers, I suppose.

Loriel · #14 06-22-2003, 12:58 AM

Well, we cannot even go of***pic anymore

protagonist · #15 06-22-2003, 03:18 AM

No, but we can definately go off topic.

You starting a fight now? x.x
Im sick of your **** =/
roof tops have nothing to do with Graal at all, if you want to say it why not say "The top of the roof"?
You just making things harder on forum admins x.x

No I was explaining something in level making to some one and it got bleeped when I was talking about the roof. So obviously it does have something to do with graal. The top of the roof and roo***p dont mean exactly the same thing although they are similar. I shouldn't have to change what I write due to an obviously stupid filter. I'm not making it harder on them they're making it harder for every one else by limiting what words they can use.

Tyhm · #18 06-27-2003, 10:39 PM

Pretty sure you're allowed to say rooftop now.

mhermher · #19 06-27-2003, 11:57 PM

rooftop offtopic
fto

test

Loriel · #20 06-28-2003, 12:27 AM

I think some admin should post a list of all banned words.

Tyhm · #21 06-28-2003, 05:07 AM

How? ^_~

Paste the words into a text program (notepad, wordpad, etc.) and attach the file to the forums. ^_~

There is a pretty simple way to bypass badwords, though I don't think I'll mention it again, the last time my reply got deleted :P

Though IRC users on some servers might know that way to bypass :P
