Swearing
-
I know you may be a little annoyed at me posting ideas repeatedly in a short amount of time, but it has come to mind a serious issue with TPT and the TPT forums, that is, swearing. Now it's a bit of a no-brainer that this is not a adults game, yet in the short amount of time I've been here, I've seen completely uncensored swearing in both the forums and the comments section of saves (and serious swearing aswell). Could jacob1 (or any other programmer for that matter) censor or better yet remove completely all detected swearing in posts, comments etc? I'm no programmer, but I doubt that this would be too hard to implement.

Damn, we cant change anything on the site. Maybe on the game, but [REDACTED], people would try to get around that in any way possible. Sorry, man, lifes a [DATA EXPUNGED].Edited once by jacob1. Last: 7th Apr 2015

Dang I actually like the idea behind censorship. First and foremost there is going to be swearing on the forums now, that's a no-brainer. And I've also seen racism,cursing,etc. I also think this is in the rules that Simon, left us to follow.

I try and remove swearing as much as I can, but without an actual filter it will always appear. Swearing is definitely listed in the rules though, and is supposed to be banned entirely. If it is on a comment in game, I recommend just hitting the report button and reporting it there. Or reporting it to me privately somewhere. If it is on the forum i'll eventually see it. Are there any comments in particular you made this thread about?
Also I haven't been annoyed by (or noticed really) any of your threads lol.Edited once by jacob1. Last: 7th Apr 2015 -
You can only report saves. Just report the save where anything you want to report happens. Also you can only report each save once (really annoying restriction)
Edit: btw "suck" and "suckish" aren't really swearing or reasons to delete comments >_>Edited 2 times by jacob1. Last: 7th Apr 2015 -
Also, words dont hurt people. People trying to shelter others from the outside world does :P

Yes, that's why we don't do anything extremely like a censor or filter. But excessive swearing and other things like hating always seem to go together (delete :P), also due to how young many TPT players are I try to remove anything comments like that on front page saves.
Swearing is mostly useless anyway ... especially on a game like TPT. -
That's why we need a block comment feature. If you don't like "a", comment you can block it.
