No I'm not saying to get rid of the language but something to help maybe would be if people can have the option if they want to see it, like on your profile put language censor? and they can say none, some (just for major words) and heavy (for all bad words)
Sorry if this sounds pushy or anything.

What a shitty idea. Do you have any idea what a fuckload of work this would be?

Impact...

No offense, but if you have such a big problem with language, why are you on a public, unrestricted online forum?

I don't have that big of a problem with it. I just don't like it when people use it constantly like thats all they know.

Man, personally if I could just have any restrictions go on the site I'd like one that doesn't let idiotic threads get posted. But the best we can do is just ignore them or shoot them down, and I suggest you do the same man. If someoone is swearing constantly or in a personal attack they get warned, but that's it. This isn't middle school, this is a public forum where people are aloud to express themselves however they want as long as they follow the guidelines the administrators choose to make, and one of those guidelines is not "You can only swear a very limited amount." So I'd suggest sucking it up or leaving, because I think between this forum and Impact, we all know which one needs the other more.

I'm not asking for you to stop. This was something that I saw on another forum where people can blur out what other people are saying.

Okay Impact, I am doing this for your own good. Please don't be offended. People will express themselves in ways they are accustomed to. There are some, like yourself, who love being able to talk without using curse words or vulgar language, or whatever you want to call it. It's a choice that many people do not really know about. I'm not implying you grew up that way, with a family of the same nature, but there is a large percentage of people who do not grow up that way. Most people live in dysfunctional families, and grow up hearing this language, and adapting to it. It becomes their language, and it becomes their way of expressing themselves.

Sometimes, people don't grow up in families where cursing is used a lot, and they still grow up to use curse words constantly. Some do use it excessively, while others only use it occasionally. In both cases, it's their way of expressing themselves. More often than not, those who use it occasionally only use it when they are angry or upset. Those who use it constantly only know how to express themselves in that way. I don't think any way is wrong. If you want to express yourself that way, let it be. Words are, after all, just words. They don't come wrapped with sharp objects that hurt you, or sealed inside a punch to the face. They are JUST words, and they shouldn't be hurtful and offensive. Unfortunately, they are to some people, and while I admire your ability not to use vulgar language, I don't think it's a great idea to let it be known in such a public manner. You've said it a few times, and I think it would be best for you to PM Eagle or bABA about it for a better, clearer response than what you get from everyone else.

If it can be done in profile, think it's nice idea. If you want it, use it.

Personally I cannot stand NOT seeing words such as cunt, fuck or Zingaling.

No offence impact, you sound like a pussy. You could hear much worse things by walking outside or going to a strip club.

Impact, this isn't BOM where we have to act like we're at church. If you really have a problem with swearing, all I can tell you is that maybe the language censored BOM is a place that you'd be more comfortable at. I don't notice people swearing excessively like you claim. If somebody wants to say the word shit or goddamnit, they can, so ignore it or if you can't, I'm sure BOM is in your favorite places.

Uh, Impact doesn't ask for a whole board censor, just if one can set up for individual users. If it's implemented, you don't have to use it.

a bit more civility here please?? impact requested for an option where a language censor could be enabled by a certain user, not asking people to quit it. its a legit request, much like moviedude's "Can we have a thread where we state negative things about people", michael's "Can we have flash tags" and maverikk and many others "Can we have an ignore feature".

if you guys dont like a particular idea, be civil about it. this isn't a board where we encourage anything we like and then blast anything that doesn't bother us. to be tolerant, one doesn't accept anything thats ok with them but also accept things that they're not okay with. i swear, if i see this attitude continue, i wlil be forced to put a stop to it. guys like zingy and X have issues with this idea but still provide a civil answer. LEARN from it.

Impact, as i told michael once, i've never worked with the forum mods before. i doubt the one you're asking for exists. i'll look into trying to find one. even if i find it though, i doubt i'll be in a position to install it.

fun for you.

if the person creates his own thread to talk about his issues with swearing, i dont see any civility in having fun by inundating it with swearing and/or personal attacks.

And let's go back 1 year ago when you were at BOM, if the same type of situation were to arise, would you have not taken the chance to roll with it? WOULD YOU HAVE NOT?

And I do understand what you mean. That's why I tried to tell impact that it was just a jest.

I don't see the point...just look over the curse words if they offend you so much, or try to ignore the posts of those you know tend to curse alot.

It really isn't the end of the world impact...I mean if it is for your own morality sake...it isn't like YOU are the one cussing. But as people have said before...this is a public forum, and you have to realize that people are going to express themselves in a free manner.

AND AS MENTIONED before, he isn't asking anyone to stop expressing themselves in any manner they like.
