Language Filter Is Crap

[Lemuria]

So you would find sh** less offensive than crap? I think you might want to set priorities.

I think they were more likely referring to the word 'damn'. I've seen Saturday morning cartoons that use it infrequently.

There's only one thing that annoys me about the filter, and that's when it asterisks out words that are clearly not intended to be curses. For example, writing "isn't it" becomes "isn'* **". A smarter filter would probably help, but it's also probably more trouble than it's worth to make one.

For my part, I keep the filter on simply because I have young children and I don't want them picking up bad habits. It doesn't offend me personally. The biggest problem with making the censorship more heavy-handed is that we'll end up getting more unintentional censors than before, and that would eventually make chat unreadable with it on.
