New and "improved" word filter. :(

Mikztsu · 01-31-2004, 02:05 PM

I'm quite disappointed to see that word (excuse me for saying it now) biatch is being filtered out, as is the other word for "arse", etc. :/

I know this is a family forum etc, but isn't this a bit over the top?

From what I know, Sean needed it to get the site approved for the Google ads. Is it permanent? I have no idea, go ask him

Do I think it's over the top? Personally, not really

Well, maybe not CLOUT.

But me, Mikael, LIVES from the words b itch and a ss. -_-

I was surprised that the word "sex" wasn't filtered out.

Google has done what I tried for years to do and failed. *wipes away a tear of joy*

I don't see why swearing is so so important.

It's not so much the swearing, as the not being cencored so some guy can get 5 cents a click untill google says "

you, we don't wanna pay anymore, your site has too many people clicking" is what's important.

I don't mean swearing...it's not important. But those arse and biatch? It's not much of swearing, in my opinion, but oh well...

Yeah, you might be right. We should get rid of the ads and keep the swear filter. Then everyone will be happy.
