Dont worry, we are allowed to say Bugger, Bastard, Catamite, Cad, Excrescence....if you feel the need to curse, simply be more imaginative.

I find profanity filters offensive.
Let people toggled these for themselves if they want to, hell even for specific posters whose use of bad words they can't stomach.

there's an obvious reason for slang/insanity filtering:
whatever your mood is, when someone throws something vulgar abt you in local and you just can read "**** **** you *** of a ****" you just laugh at it or ignore it.
but when it's not, you could easily get grumpy... Words will be thrown... and petitions will get filled... which means extra work for the GM's!
And the general mood of eve players would be lower than usual.

Since you hear kids in primary school saying words that would make a barmaid blush, profanity filters to protect kids from bad words these days is meaningless. They alreay know most of them by the time they can write anyway.
I think it should be part of the settings so you can turn it on or off.
-- There's a simple difference between kinky and perverted. Kinky is using a feather to get her in the mood. Perverted is using the whole chicken. |

This. I swear like a sailor with tourettes, so others swearing doesn't phase me in the slightest - in fact as I often say to my friends: It's when I stop swearing that you should worry.
If people are so touchy about mere ****ing words then give them the option to filter them out, and stop filtering everyone by default.

Edited by: Nikla Uthaan on 03/11/2008 01:57:37 I think the reason the profanity filters are in place is because the forums are *public* viewing. You don't need an EVE account to read them. As such, any joe bloggs can come read them.
EVE itself has an ESRB rating, so people under that age *shouldn't* be playing (yeah, right...), and so they can safely run under the assumption that any vulgar language is tolerable by a *reasonable* adult.
(by reasonable I mean the mention of the f or c-bombs, while it may be offensive somewhat, doesn't get you waving your arms about inapropriatness. Or to use a friend of mine as an example, feels the excessive need to replace damn with dag-nabbit)

I agree, profanity filters are just there for crack-job parents that dont want to "corrupt" their child's minds. They are just delaying the inevitable. Let them learn them on their own, let them use them when ever they want and THEN when they do use them in the presence of said parent the parent should deal with it. Todays parents aren't in my opinion doing their jobs when it comes to discipline practices abroad. Having CCP do the dirty work for them is just a cheap cop-out for what the PARENTS should be doing, not corporations.

I'm just upset that they nerfed my ability to say Ѕhit. Most importantly, how are you supposed to tell whether this is part of my post or my signature? |

The whole point is that it's filtering things not normally considered offensive, such as the word "****pit."
I say to hell with the filters... at least give us a bloody option to turn it off so we can read posts without having to go through a list of profanity words in our head: "****pit? What? ****pit? ****pit? ... Oh, ****pit!"

If there is a specific word that gets partially masked by the bad word filter, please contact us by creating a petition in the Other Issues -> Community category and we'll take a look at it.
