    Default How would you feel if IA got rid

    Of all the Bad words? Well, that more commons one...?



    It keeps scarring sponsors and potentail new bigger sponsors away... Bigger sponsors means, bigger things for the site? Plus I keep getting in trouble with IA's Biggest sponsor...


    But how you guys/gals feel?

    My personal opinion is :

    It gets annoying when all I see is Fuck you this, fuck that.. sucks my cock ,, fuck you pussy .. in alot of threads..


    all bad words would be replace with " ***** " and naturally we would know what you are saying anyways..


    So tell me, what you guys think? Im really leaning towards getting rid of the cussing or more of the common words..


    spit....

    i wouldnt have a problem as long as it replaces the word with "********" and not an alternate word. the subbing in of words is annoying imo.

    I think if you could ban the words from certain forums it would be a good idea. However, the whoreslounge is what it is.

    the way IA is now....we would find a way to go around the block...i remember you tried that before and someone found a crack or code or whatever to cuss some more and this time they showed up in bold lettering.....

    I means it's an online message board...

    maybe you can leave all the cussing in the whores lounge/ entertainment where most of it is and as far as everything else goes have it edited out like shop forums,lifestyle, and other parts

    there is a disclaimer on the site too.......18+ so that means adults only.... so in a way your following the "ratings"

    "wouldn't bother me at all." would be the correct way to say that....

    I don't think I'd mind, especially if it was ultimately better for the site. But if words are censored, what next, pix? I mean, if I couldn't see FCMans gifs...I just might have to fuck somebody up. And I'm not even a violent man, and I prefer the use of less vulgar language. I belive that people who curse, do so, because they lack the intellect and vocabulary to converse without them. But if suddenly, IA began to censor tits? Aww fuck that, thats some bullshit. Just thinking of that shit, is getting me pissed the fuck up.

    There's no "crack" per say, it's just adding the color tag somewhere in the middle of the word.

    Example:
    ****** <- Without Color Code Tag
    Nigger <- With Color Code Tag

    Quote my post and you'll see what I mean. You can use the color, bold, italic, or underline code. It doesn't matter.

    While there are ways to get around a censorship in the forums, I do think it's a step in the right direction to start filtering out some trash.

    Really depends on the direction the board is headed in, some sponsors do not want to be affiliated with indecency. Profanity isn't a big deal to me but I wont lie if I was a sponsor I would be concerned about certain aspects of the board. If you've been here for a while its easy to overlook certain things (posts of girls eating shit, flaming, racist comments) but for new members and/or potential sponsors you have to imagine how things are perceived.

    At the end of the day I know the board isn't here to make you rich but I know there are expenses associated with keeping it going on a day to day basis, and I can only imagine with more members come higher expenses.

    After all that.. It doesnt bother me either way.

    censored. but hey its your site. funny how things always come down to money. at least you are honest. i like the freedom of speech that has been around this board. It is one of the best things i think every other board i am on you have to act like a pussy cause some bitch is offended by words that someone type. hell i am just as offended by stupidity yet i am still here.......

    i think it might kill bandwidth though...i mean the main reason why alot of people browse these forums and not other forums is because the freedom of speech we have over here...

    if you took the average IA member and put them on another web board they would be banned in minutes

    guaranteed.
