Words being filtered.

[DC 536]

I can understand "teh" being filtered, mainly because of its use as a way to try and be cool and the like. But can anyone tell me why "cos" has been filtered too? It's a minor thing, but I use cos a lot when writing for the e-fed, and it's annoying having to go back and sort out all the stars.

[Guest Popsi]

It's not filtered on your post...

He has some fancy pants way of un-filtering it...I don't know how he does it but "***" is filtered asI sent him a PM and it filtered it in there...

[Guest Popsi]

How odd!

[Guest Miss T]

Thats not even text speak is it!? Stoopid!

[Guest Wolverine]

I think that teh filters are stupid.

[Kam 243]

You think "cos" is standard for because? :eek

 

It is text talk.

 

The very reason I have filtered it IS because it seems to be used more and more on the forums.

[BRM 220]

*** Kam said so.

[Guest Slim Jim]

It's a simple way of helping people break the habit of using teh and cos all the time.

[Nimf 324]

But I don't WANT to break the habit of using ***! I say it in real life, I don;t say the round the wrong way, but I rarely say because in its entirety! It's not offensive, I just don't get it...

[Guest Craig]

*** **** ***** *** ******** ******? ****** ** ***'* ** **** ****. *** *** ** stupid ******

 

Edit - ******

Just imagine all the members who will be doing exams and using this words instead of the correct spellings. Imagine the examiner seeing that they cant even spell THE! :eek

Hate it when you're right...:sad: I guess it's just that I understand swearing and slang words being filtered, but not ***...And since I don't know how fancy people undo the starring out, it looks like i'm swearing...

[Guest Colin]

Let's go with 'cause!

[wyndorf 389]

What? *** you said so?

[Guest Nicole]

I use it all the time and I hate the fact its filtered. It's only the thickos who'll use it in a real exam.

[Guest Craig]

I think you're all crazy for criticizing Kam. Kam is a hero, a true man's man. He's the kind of guy that only comes along once every few hundred years. The kind of man that truly cares about society and the way of life for everyone. He's not prejudice at all. No sir, not Kam. He loves everyone. And he loves children. And ponies.

 

He believes in the children, and he's going to help them lead us all to a better tomorrow. And with Kam at the head of all this, I believe it will not only be a BETTER tomorrow, but a GREAT tomorrow.

 

You see, Kam realises what the rest of us missed. Kam realises that the way to teach the children is not by sending them to school. No, Kam realises that these kids need to realise the truth, and the truth is: Cos and Teh are bad words. Every time you use either of them, God kills a pony. And Kam knows this, and now, thanks to Kam, the children of the world know this, and they will not use such language.

 

So the next time you walk outside and you see a pony playing, or a child shaking his head at some other child who is sending a txt and typing out cos instead of because, or you see the phrase "lolz dat was *** bestest!!1!" I want you to think of Kam and everything he has done for us. I know I sure will.

 

I believe in you Kam. I believe. :clap

[Guest Wolverine]

That is teh greatest tribute I've ever read man. I've got tears in my eyes, cos it's so touching.

[Dead Crow 370]

This is all well and good, but I've been able to swear twice in the tags today, with "b*stard" and "tw*t" (I think). Might wanna try and sort that bad boy out before you worry about text talk :)

[Guest Colin]

Twit isn't that insulting
