Feral Posted April 3, 2002 Share Posted April 3, 2002 Ah, now, crap isn't swearing. And, like Raven said, you wouldn't have heard "Goddamnit" or "****" on the Simpson's. The scene you're thinking of is: Homer (from basement): Ah, crap! Bart (entering basment): Heard you cussin' Dad. Can I do it too? Crap-boobs-crap. Post script - Abbreviation is something I did when I was 11, Al. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brief Posted April 3, 2002 Share Posted April 3, 2002 Originally posted by Katey I don't see why you are all so touchy. If the users are old enough to read, they are old enough to hear a swear word. I don't exactly think we are robbing them of their innnocence. I'm just telling you how you beat the filter, for those who might want it. It's just another vB code. I think someone needs to chill. *hands out chill pills all round* feel better. Don't get your panties in a twist.. Seems to me like you're being more touchy than some others around here. Yes, you've found a way around the filters. And you've posted this particular workaround for others who would like to bypass the filter. Good for you. I just don't think it's that big a deal to be able to swear or not. Added to that the added work of having to do other stuff to the text before they will show up (it's easier to type whole words, rather than typing half a word, doing something else, and then typing the rest of the word). That just seems like a lot of work for something that could just as easily be achieved by typing f***. Much faster, easier, filter does nothing to it, and almost everyone should know exactly what word I mean when I type f***. If you want to take that extra work just to get some profanities into the forums, more power to ya. Seems like your energy could be better spent elsewhere, but that's your perogative.

Feral Posted April 6, 2002 Share Posted April 6, 2002 You, sir, are an idiot. Let's count the number of people in this topic that abbreviated as much as you did...2 How many people posted in this topic? 13. That puts me in a huge majority, and you as a minority. And so, you see, your point is a) Juvenile b) Desperate and c) False. And yes, I am serious. Abbreviations are annoying, pointless, and, yes, childish. It's the sort of thing people who have just gotten the Internet do. By the way, youyr link doesn't work and you are wrong. "****" has never been said on The Simpon's, nor "Goddammit". Your argument seems to be falling part in every aspect, doesn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your argument seems to be falling part in every aspect, doesn't it? no, not really first of all, sorry if i have not replied, ive been having trouvbles w my pc 1- some ppl might not need/want to use abreviations in the forums, that doesnt mean they dont use it at all. bsides, if i wanna use abreviations or not thats my problem, im just saying that abraviations r not, by any means, childish. 2- how did u get to say that my argument is "Juvenile, Desperate and False." just by saying that most ppl that posted here ddnt abreviate? ur taking a step bigger than ur leg here, sonny. 3- i dont remember the link exactly, as i said, n i dont have it in my internet history anymore. if u dont wanna believe me, i dont give a damn. again thats ur words against mine and this slice of the discussion is not going anywhere 4- all im saying is: a) theres no way to prove that abreviations r childish. y? because they aint. b) ppl should b able to post profanities becasue, once again: quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Originally posted by Al-back from the BigWhoop its part of our vocabulary nowadays [...] fuçk is more heart-felt than **** -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- plus, in my opinion, the censor is just ridiculous.
