Because on the old board there were problems with immature kids using profanity to an extreme. Anyone else remember the flame war of Dec 6, 2004? Several board members went ape#&*! that day.

Sure we can take foul language, but that's not the point. People shouldn't have to be subjected to the foulmouth rantings of those who are too inarticulate to use acceptable language when trying to construct an argument or make a point. I don't know if you guys have noticed but when someone feels the need to curse every other word it makes them look less than intelligent. Like sarah said in DAy " I've got better things to do than listen to this kindergarten". Also, there are women and kids that visit this site. it's not appropriate to subject them to that type of atmosphere. Every member of this site should be made to feel comfortable. You could say that if you don't like it just don't read it , but that would effectively "Censor" parts of the site from members who have as much right as anybody to roam freely without having to see offensive posts. Now is that fair?

I still can't fathom how P I S S is censored. Don't you guys in the UK go out and get P I S S E D from time to time.


Hell P*SS is even said on regular TV here in the USA.

I think P!SS should at least be uncensored.

I guess it's also true that no matter what you do that you're always going to offend some people. How ever i think that the majority of people here know what falls outside the boundries of good taste.:D Also, to clear up any confusion, i also think that most of the members of this site conduct themselves in an exemplary manner and are very concious not to disrespect other members. But as was stated earlier there's always one or 2 at every site.

You guys are learning, the reasons for the censor have been listed already. just in case you missed them, here they are.

i have discussed this with neil and we both think the 4 word censor is just right now, so we wont be changing it.

oh and by the way guys, its against the rules to bypass the censor :p


4 key swear words are automatically censored out on all area's of these forums, you may not at any time bybass or deceive this censor.

Offensive posts will be edited or deleted and offending members warned.

I still think P*SS should be let off, it's a pretty standard word, especially sat next to the other three, which are pretty obvious why they're banned. So my thoughts are the "P" word should be uncensored, you can keep the others fer now...:)

I am with Minion on this one... Unban the P word. Pussy, snatch, Hell I even think COCK is allowed, why not P*ss? When's the last time you got p*ss Drunk? Or was P*ssed they did another remake of a romero film.

See it is a harmless word. :D So let's all get P*ssed in celebration of the de-banning of the P word.

3 or 4 when I am talking, but that's usually me going off on a rant.

ive been speaking to neil about this one just now, and the verdict is in.

we have decided to take piss off the censor. so you can now officially say piss, pissed off, piss off, im pissed, get pissed, dont be so pissy... etc etc :D

we've also agreed that our stance on the other censored words is tough but fair, and we will not be removing them, so the 3 word censor remains.

Hooray! Victory party for PISS!!! The system works! :)

Fair enough I guess on the others, at least I can still let rip in real life ... *gasp* but what will become of "fupishcu"?! ... "fushcu" I guess, ha!

FUSHCU for everyone at the buffet ... let's get pissed! :cool:

Can we put "god" ON the censor? :D I notice sometimes of TV, if they say "goddamn", they bleep out the "god" part and not the "damn" part. Just trying to help those who are adverse to using his name in vain...:lol:

American TV censorship has gone waaaaaaaaaaaay too far...one of the last great episodes of Family Guy was the one when they were being censored in real life...
