SB has word censors going now? Seriously that is so F'n lame. I sent a tongue in cheek PM to a pal appologizing for being a b i t c h and instead it replaces b i t c h with " I fart a lot" Seriously f'n stupid, what are we 10 years old?. SB POINTS LOST BIG TIME. There should be no censorship here.
Seriously though... I know we are all collecting toys but that doesnt mean we are children. I dont drop the B bomb often but really dislike not being able to use it.
Yeah I guess I agree but whats up with it? Who decided this? And why just B i t c h? Must I go through every curse word out of curiosity as a test to see whats not ok? fuck shit mother fucker ass damn baka yaro wanker. I clearly cannot come up with enough vulgarity.
The b word's been censored for a long time. Years. I think due it's (possible) derogatory use towards women.
I have to say I've always appreciated that particular rewrite. Women are still basically treated like crap in our culture. The term d u n n y is also rewritten [expletive deleted]
And Q e e and k i d r o b o t (which sparked some hypocrisy drama a few months back since super7 are using the kr forums to promote their toys).
People are actually concerned about 'censorship' of a few words on a privately owned message board? Really? Grow up people. Whole posts/threads have disappeared on here. S7 owns it and they can do what they like. There isn't a first amendment right to a private message board.
I always thought it was to keep the board from the flood of "Son of a b!tch!" posts after not receiving winning lottery emails...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h3n0WD9bq_8 hey you cankle bandits! knock off the pumpernickel! whoever owns what and their ability to do what they want with it aside... i think it's odd that you can't use the "b" word, but the plural for is fine. let's see some consistency, for fuck's sake. =p and to blake and psilo's point on misogyny, why is there nothing to stop us from dropping a see you next tuesday? then again, there's also what severen just said...
^^ well oli, then you'd be burdened with an abundance of flatulence. and that's something you may want to keep to yourself.
I get that, it's just where's it end? Where do you draw the line? In the end it's no big deal, I personally have no concern. My tone of distaste In last nights posts was really just drunken play.
There is no end, that was my point. S7 has censored both this site numerous times and the skullbrain facebook group over certain posts. The whole B word was brought into censoring after a very nasty exchange degrading a female on the board from what I recall.
