Bad words.

[LuMpY]

Why can't I use the word D-R-U-G-S? What if someone has a legit question about a common medication? If you find D-R-U-G-S offensive, you need to grow up. They say a lot worse things on tv. What is wrong with the word G-A-Y? Are YOU? I'm sorry to hear that. Anyway, my point is these words are not "evil". You won't go to hell(can I say hell? :shifty: ) if you say or read them, so what's the big deal? :hmm:

I move this to the admin corner. There you can ask questions about the board.

[LuMpY]

Obviously a mod saw this, so what's up?

I saw it, but the admin has settled the anti-'swear'-word policy. Though I can give you a good reason why it is blocked. Although dr*gs and g*y and f*ck and stuff can be used in normal language, where it isn't a swear word, people often used it as a swear word and to avoid flames and such, blocking some off these words can help.

There was a lot of swearing and flaming activity lately and maybe that's why it is blocked.

:hmm: :hihi: That's hilarious. I don't even know how to respond to that. It's the silliest thing I have heard on here yet. Ok, I can understand F-U-C-K. That's not a good one for the forum but the others are harmless unless you are a weak-minded B-A-S-T-A-R-D.

They bleep out those words because then when someone is looking in google for Drugs and they see this site, they'll think its a bad website, thats what Wynex tells me

well the past has shown some words were flame-sensitive, but my idea was just a guessture. Read hart_attacks point

yes... too many people in google search for drugs, porn or sex - It's not because we want to censor these words, it's just because we don't want to waste our traffic for such people :?
