Belloq Posted May 2, 2008 Posted May 2, 2008 I'll just ask straight out, since this topic belong nowhere else, my signature can have a swear word, right? I won't get "banned" or anything if it does, correct, cause I was p;anning on swithcing my sig to a new one, but I din't wanna break any "implied" rules or rules I-am-not-aware-of, thanks for the help Quote
Scouty Posted May 2, 2008 Posted May 2, 2008 Well, as far as I am aware, you pretty much have the freedom of speech in these forums. HOWEVER, some consider this a family-friendly site, so I guess it would be best not to for the youngins. Though, I think you are free to type as you want! Quote
Belloq Posted May 2, 2008 Author Posted May 2, 2008 Evidently speech is somewhat moderated here because when I inserted the quote “Son, when a man and a woman love each other very much, they have sex, and unfortunately, if the woman is a deceitful lying b**** and tells the man that she is taking birth control and she is in fact not, mistakes like you..I mean children are born .” the words female canine kept popping up after lying I thought I copied the quote wrong, but female canine? Not even female dog, canine! Quote
MacK Posted May 2, 2008 Posted May 2, 2008 Evidently speech is somewhat moderated here because when I inserted the quote the words female canine kept popping up after lying I thought I copied the quote wrong, but female canine? Not even female dog, canine! It did it by itself? I guess Eurobricks is full of surprises . I guess it means you can't have a swear in your quote, if you really want I would just insert the quote with as you have it, maybe also cover up sex with s** as there are a few younger kids on Eurobricks.

Jipay Posted May 2, 2008 Posted May 2, 2008 We have a worl filter set up for some specific words. It replaces what people could consider as offensive by funny expressions (most of them created by our very own phes). Swearing is ok as long as it's not abusive. Quote

Thats realy great on Eurobricks' behalf, swearing replaced by funny words? Classic! , anyway, thanks for the halp evryone, I'll just switch up the quote a bit Quote
Siegfried Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 I have no problem with it. We are hoping to clarify signature rules soon as it's unfair to expect people to obey rules that aren't clear. Quote

hollisbrick Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 I'm laughing at wondering what Mister Phes came up with Yes some of them have been pretty funny but I got to admit there are a couple of sigs that aren't very suitible.. like the ones with naked ladies in them not mentioning any names. I was looking at this forum with my 6 year old cuz and to our susprise there she was!!! I thought it isn't really setting a good messege to people anyway.. (btw i'm not gay and I find girls as well as that naked lady atractive ) Quote
Sir Dano Posted May 3, 2008 Posted May 3, 2008 but I got to admit there are a couple of sigs that aren't very suitible.. like the ones with naked ladies in them not mentioning any names. Well, I'm very glad I browse this site with the sigs off. Quote
iamded Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 (edited) We have a word filter set up for some specific words. It replaces what people could consider as offensive by funny expressions (most of them created by our very own phes). Swearing is ok as long as it's not abusive. That's a great feature of forums. I noticed when I typed 'bad-ass' it ended up as 'bad-megablocks'. Too bad Megabloks isn't censored. ~Peace Edited May 4, 2008 by iamded Quote

Lord Of Pies Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 I only just noticed that certain swear words are censored/ replaced with the word "megablocks"! Although the Birtish swear words aren't...... Quote
Millacol88 Posted May 7, 2008 Posted May 7, 2008 lol same, I think certain bad words are replaced by certain other words eg megablocks=megablocks exactly whenever you feel like swearing just say megablocks Quote

I was looking at this forum with my 6 year old cuz and to our susprise there she was!!! I thought it isn't really setting a good messege to people anyway.. (btw i'm not gay and I find girls as well as that naked lady atractive ) What's wrong with a 6 year old seeing a naked female body? It's perfectly natural. There's NOTHING wrong with that. If someone finds a naked body offensive (not pointing at you, Hollis ), they need professional help. Seriously. That's sick. Oh, and Hollis, you don't have to excuse yourself for being gay... Although you ain't. Quote
