We Have New Word Filters And Are Implementing New Rules - Willowman - 03-17-2009
I implemented some new word filters yesterday that are to eliminate certain words from this forum. If you don't understand why, I'll give you two reasons: FIRST, many of the adult members here have kids who look at the site with them to see the cool new masks, gloves, etc. that can be found on the forum. Not everyone wants their kids to read or hear certain words. SECOND, this forum belongs to Justin Mabry, who makes masks. You want to swear? Go to a site that has nothing to do with a business. You may think this is simply a horror forum but it's not.That said, if you circumvent these new filters by spelling out the words, you will be given a warning. Keep it up and you won't be on this forum anymore.Got an inappropriate avatar? We're taking it down and you can replace it.Wanna be a jerk to someone who asked a question that you deem stupid? That's a warning. Just ignore the topic.These rules are not ridiculous by any means and we have been far too lenient in the past regarding them. If you have not read the forum rules, I suggest you do so before making another post.-Dan

I'm all fine for censoring the swears but be aware i tried to post that i added G-L-A-S-S eyes to a mask and it saw it as the "A" word. Not sure what you can do filter wise for that but wanted to give you the heads up.

I totally understand the reasons for these rules, as people have abused it so much lately, ive always put my adult words like this S**T, and a**, and i too am probably guilty slipping a minor one here or two just in the past months when ive been slightly buzzed, but only cuz ive gotten so use to seeing it, i see nothing wrong with the poop word or butt word in my house hold, all my kids have been exposed to so much horror and adult comedy that they are numb to it, i dont know its the way i was brought up, we are very open and its great to me, but i know other people are not as open and i respect that. And as stated by the willowman this is Justins site and his biz its only fair that it be represented the way he would like, and i respect that 100%, and the use of the f word is a little irriatating anyway unless its coming from Captain Spualding, <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\"

I hope we can still post pics of gory masks and costumes with blood and exposed guts.

No problemo, Willow! Word filters are totally cool by me. Well, as long as we're still able to say g-l-a-s-s and m-a-s-s-i-v-e... <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\"

That gory pictures like this one:<img src=\"http://i373.photobucket.com/albums/oo171/TheChosenOneXXX/n561386891_1992670_3520229.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" />are A O.K., but the words like a*s and s**t are "taboo".I guess it's because language like that really isn't necessary. But gore is! <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":biggrin:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"biggrin.gif\" /> So yeah, the word filter is not a problem, at all. Not for me, anyway.
