I have a quick question:

If I type in a word that is blocked on the forum can the mods/admins see what it says or does it show up as asterisks for them, too?

Just don't swear here! This is not the place. But to answer your question, it can be done either way.

Yeah ok so the post count one was alright but blocking "***" and such?

These things are used all over on the internet nowadays by people of all ages.

We aren't actually saying the word, and if people know what they mean already, is it really going to offend them?

And anyway do we REALLY have anybody here who isn't mature enough to deal with that sort of language when it's represented by the first letter?

Sigh.
This is a forum for people of all ages. I dont think parents of younger people or younger people themselves will want to see vulgar comments left right and centre. Remember its not just that its rude but using vulgar words everywhere looks messy and is just confusing and makes a hard read.

Keep it friendly, Keep it family safe.

Why do this now an infraction is a much better way to go about this,If you simply ***** it out then the meaning is still going to come across the same way as if you sow what it said,if some one post "**** you retared" there still going to get there piont acrost,and you still know that he/she said ''****'',but if you give them and infraction thats a taking somthing away then it is more likley that they will stop after an infraction or two.

If you have **** appear in your post, you will get an infraction. As I mentioned earlier in this thread, the asterisks are a reactive measure to someone breaking the rules.

Also, please do use spell check when posting here Our usability depends on it.

If so, I don't get why they would outlaw that. And seriously, banning letters now?
Yeah, but it can also mean a couple o things :\


I personally think that the whole "F" thing is taking things a step too far..

We have not banned "f". Please read this thread. We have banned acronyms that are synonymous with words that are already against our rules. Not sure how many times I can say this.
