QFT.

Darwin's "survival of the fittest"/"natural selection" theory needs a bit of enforcing imo.

I read the post and thought the same thing, then I thought I misread it, so I read it again, then I thought it again, then the next post seemed to understand it, but I still didn't.

Clearly there is less intelligence here than I'm willing to give credit

You got banned MULTIPLE TIMES, and you still dont get it. No, mistaken, you DO get it, but you blame it on the chatfilter. Where did I leave my torture equipment.... eh... I mean... brain transplantation devices?

It needs more... A LOT more. And throw in some hydrochloric acid while we are at it.

He's currently at party with Isaac Newton, celebrating the sucess of idiocy+gravity.

We don't need a 'better' chat filter. We need people who aren't morons, who aren't racists/sexists/homophobe etc. and people who are mature enough to realise that some people like to swear (I don't understand this though). Honestly.

why do they ban us if curse words arent unintentionally filtered.

Artorius.Maximus · Mar 10, 2008, 11:32 PM // 23:32

Gotta be honest. I am 26 and I while I do swear at work once in a while, I try to avoid it at home and really don't feel the need to see it on the computer either. Personally, I consider most of the people who swear in game just to swear juvenile. Racism/Sexism/Whatever other discrimatory things exist are just as bad.

Yes, I understand that by turning my chat filter off I am subjecting myself to this, but I am also intelligent enough to be able to know what word is replaced by **** in most instances.

I understand swearing while speaking. Most of the time it is a spur of the moment thing. If you have to type, it is no longer a spur of the moment as that requires more thought.

/permaban for stupidity

ok, i'll admit i'm not intimately familiar with the EULA, but i have 0 sympathy for someone using racial slurs in the game, whether the filter blocks it or not.

imho, a racial slur should be grounds for a perma ban, first time.

now, your "standard" swearing, the incomplete list of impolite words, if you will, i have no major problem with. i'm an adult, theoretically, all the folks online are too. (if you are a child on the internet, i seriously wonder about your parents. if you're the parent of a child on the internet, for gods sake, put the kid up for adoption and get yourself fixed.)

aside from prudish folks trying to tell me what's good for me, any rational adult ought to be able to cope with some swearing. it is, for some people, simply their idiom, to curse a lot. (i work in a steelmill, and i know whereof i speak. one of the most intelligent, polite folks i know, swears to himself constantly as he works. and the kind of language that would take paint of an aircraft carrier. would never guess this in conversation, but hey....)

again though, NO sympathy for any racism. average cursing; sure, racism; we take you out behind the barn and shoot you, for the good of the genepool.
