A long time ago, there's nothing interesting about it. And I was banned from the phpBB RZ, how could I still be banned if all accounts were lost?

I've already explained several times that word censors are bullshit, but some people don't seem to understand

What, words like crap and bitch? That's really just pointless.

I learned that when I tried to say "sparse".

Actually I'm quite sure bitch isn't cencored for some reason.

I guess it's because it can also mean a female dog. I suppose it's also why they uncensored 'ass' - because that is a type of donkey (I think lol)

Are mods even supposed to edit the messages that bypass the word censor? Because nothing's easier than replacing a letter or adding a dot somewhere

Problems also arise if you write anything with "cock" in it, like cockpit, and cockatoo. And what if someone is talking about chickens?

If they must have a censor, it should recognise words alone, so that the censored word can appear in words.

Then again, you would just have to add a dot to bypass it. That's why they're useless

It's cause they think parents or little kids actually visit the forums.

And so? There are thousands of ways to bypass it, so it won't prevent children from reading such words. And anyway, that's nothing compared to what they hear in the street and at school.

Moreover, I know a lot of kids (some as young as 5) who are already swearing.

The only kids that I see doing that are the poor, 17 year old parents don't give a shit about their child. It disgusts me. I once saw this teenager smoking away on his cigarettes while his 2 year old child was sitting on the grass, AT THE FAIR. If only he controld himself in the past.
