Topic: This site needs a censor.

Actually, we have as low as 7 year olds here.

I suspect it may be easier and quicker for all involved if you told us what we can say rather than what we can't and maybe just supply us with some standard replies that we can use in our posts.God forbid that anyone be offended by someones opinion or language. Failing that perhaps we could have a censor that filters out all the sensitive,God fearing yanks instead. Bollocks to this.............. I'm outta here.

_{goodbye luigi78. DUDE!!!}

Prudes.

I, for one, would be sad to see NL embrace censorship. Not that a filter is really going to stop anyone.

"Tit's about time you showed up, Fox!"

I think this thread needs a new title:

Oh noes,somebody on the internet sweared! Quick,hide the children and the easely offended!

Really,is swearing on the internet is something so bad it need censuring?...Oh well,if you want to have censor,fine. Maybe then I can finally write a Duke Nukem line without having to replace letters with $'s and @'s.

1) its the internet, who gives a ****
2) its only human to use words like that, not excessively, but once in a while.
3) if you wanna use bad words, censor them yourselves!

I don't know about full on censorship. The moderators already crack down on crude and excessive name calling.

I fully adorse your sentiments, madam, and in good faith hope it is taken into consideration.

_{d'ya think if i sound all smart and stuff they'll be more inclined to listen?}

I agree that some words need to be censored.

Is that why there are so many locked topics here?

(I am new here - cannot tell why some topics were locked?)

Welcome to NintendoLife, Koopa_troopa.

if the curses in question aren't directed at a person on the forum, but used to add emotion to a sentence then it should be ok. seriously, who's offended by cursewords these days if it's not intended towards themselves?

mods, stop editing my messages! get with the times, cursewords isn't tabu anymore.

@koopa_troopa: topics wind up locked for a variety of reasons (controversial topic that's blown up before, argument broke out ending in unsalvageable derailment, thread had served its purpose, duplicate thread, etc.), but none would be locked because of a swear word alone. if someone curses in a post, all a moderator has to do is edit the cursing out, no big deal. it's the fact that this process could be automated that appeals to me personally; it's less work for us so we can focus on bigger problems that arise every so often. :3

@wariowoods - you think dragon's :3 emoticon is a sign of vulgarity? I don't believe it! I don't see it as a sign of vulgarity; I see it as a sign of a happy face.

lol, 99% sure he was just joking StarBoy. :3

_{psst. StarBoy. he was joking :3}

I agree about the censors; this is a G-rated site, after all.

oh wow, that was fast. good job. :<
