KDE forum censoring system

Thu Aug 20, 2009 12:50 pm
So currently, the KDE forum's censoring policy is to detect, 'naughty' words and replace it with four asterisks, I.E. ****

For the sake of good humour, I suggest we alter the system so that it replaces these words with the word, 'elbow' instead.

Examples would include, "Stop being such an elbow", "You're starting to elbow me off", and, "Get elbowed."

I didn't say that. All I said was I can't believe it's getting positive votes.

Keep them coming, people!

Well I think that should actually be up to the user. Maybe have it be:

-Uncensored
-Character Replacement: *
-Word Replacement: elbow

Sorry, but I really don't think we will do that. Everything cannot be user customizable, or otherwise, the server will blow up ;)

Let's make a new idea for replacing asterisks with :).

"Stop being such an :)", "You're starting to :) me off", and, "Get :)."

Hm ok, maybe not. :P
