This is pretty dumb, imo.

Like the other day, got a warning because I put the words "dum" and "mass" together. Simple misspelling, or a simple variation. Filter did not catch it. Whatever.

I just feel like, this isn't kindergarten. Filter language. Leave the Naziism to the ****'s.

I realize this won't matter one bit, just my two pennies.
The rule has been in place for 6 years now.

It isn't Naziism at all.

I assume you are worried that some sex perverts will come here if they google up sex and the site shows up.

Chances are even if they did, they would leave in a second as this is not a site someone like that would remain at given they won't find what they want.

As for your daughter, I suspect she hears far worse at the play ground or in school than she would ever see here, filter or not.

Just don't let her go near the game thread, she might think everyone who is a Cowboy fan has more personalities than Hershel Walker

If you really enjoy a forum, u do what you have to do to follow the rules even if you don’t agree with all of them. Don’t circumvent the language filter, pretty simple rule to follow.

With the example I cited? Sure it is. I mean, obviously a warning is about as meaningful as a bug bite, but it's still annoying when you were making no attempt to circumvent anything, you come back on later and here's a lovely PM.

I can't control that. We can control the content on this site and we have been consistent in how we do it and what we allow for at least 6 years. No one can deny that.

No, it isn't. As I already posted before, it is a private forum with Guidelines. That is a rule we have consistently enforced for 6 years that I know of. If the warning isn't meaningful, why are you letting it bother you? Brush it off and go on. You can do that with what other posters say to you in threads. Yet you can't do that for the Moderators who are simply enforcing the Guidelines? What's the difference?

I dont even understand the idea of a "bad" word. If you recognize it as a "bad" word, youve heard it before and have not been hurt by it.

And if you dont recognize it, than no harm done either way.

You can do what you want with your site, but its like c'mon.

It's real simple, either you can live with the way the site is run or you can't.

I don't see what the argument is here, if you don't like the rule, move on. Simple

I did brush it off, didn't respond to it, and didn't bring it up to anyone except as an example in this thread. It doesn't change the fact that it's annoying, meaningless, and therefore pointless IMO.

Ive never thought about it. Im just trying to make point about so called bad words. Ive been called every name there is, I never let a word bother me.

Just dont stab me and were cool. Stabbings are my pet peeve.

wait, what happens when you get a warning?

like they dock you points or something or I just get a pm?

I don't think I ever have got warned, that's not even right.
