I know it's been brought up before, but the word censor is lame. It also filter words that contain "swear words" like minigame, which is a pretty crappy filter lmao.

It doesn't have to be disabled, since this is a kids' site and we totally don't want to corrupt their fragile little minds. But I think it'd be better if we could have the option to disable it at our own discretion.

It's definitely possible since google quickly turned up this vbulletin hack:
User Optional Word Censorship - vBulletin.org Forum

So my point is it's definitely possible, and there's probably better mods out there. But it'd be really nice if we could have this option instead of being patronized by silly filters.

yes. the word filter does suck. i don't like how the "f" word shows up as "f***".
i always felt stupid replacing letters in a bad word with asterisks.

oh well.

i like the idea and if people complain that little kids could turn off censors, then they most likely know those words already. lemme try mi****me, huh.

**** that **** ******. :D

Kids learn all these things at National school, so yeah... the filter sucks. It's not as if their "fragile little minds" won't be destroyed anyway. I tried saying sniggering the other day.

Oh, and it doesn't like wristwatch either.



EDIT: oh and FYI findoku, it's spelled snickering. Nowhere in snickering is the n-word. :)

Wigger works. I think...

EDIT: It does.

lol, any other words?
The censor is funny.

f.u.c.k

****

yeah, the word filter does suck here. i hate it :/

K have fun playing with the word filters somewhere else, I'm talking about being able to turn it off. >_>
