Forums - Is it a bad word?

This page is waiting to be archived by an administrator. Please do not edit the contents of this page. Ok, this is no rant, we just need to clear things up. First of all, I've been getting language warnings on chat, for saying this word (highlight to view): Crap. Seriously, does this count as a bad word? It's not a swear, nor do most people not count it as one. Also this is a similar case.... So... Are we banned from saying it, and will we count it as a swear (on the MS and chat)? Skdhjf(Talk!) 01:49, April 10, 2012 (UTC) Comment I think the c word is not the worst of swear words, it's not good if used in spite or used overnumerously. I feel there are flaws in the censor system (the TARD from TARDIS blocked out as one example) but after all, it's a new addition to our chat. It will see improvement in the coming weeks. --From the desk of Br1ck an1mator 19:15, April 11, 2012 (UTC) Oppose - Don't count it as a swear. Skdhjf(Talk!) 01:49, April 10, 2012 (UTC) Oppose - Seriously? It's just like saying hell. CM4S Talk Brick of Dawn! I got a warn 1 from a Moderator for saying this word. -_- It's not even bad. :P Skdhjf(Talk!) 01:55, April 10, 2012 (UTC) Wow. CM4S Talk Brick of Dawn! oppose Crap isn't rude at all. --Czech 02:02, April 10, 2012 (UTC) Oppose - What in the world? "Crap" rarely offends people older than 10. FB100Z • talk • contribs 04:43, April 10, 2012 (UTC) Oppose Crap is fine, of course spamming the word would be bad --Brick bobby - we need a CJC signal 07:16, April 10, 2012 (UTC) Oppose - Honestly? D*** isn't blocked but crap is?? I say switch that. SuperSpyX Tell me your secrets You cannot hide 12:38, April 10, 2012 (UTC) Comment - I don't think you should get warnings for it, but if a user doesn't like, then don't say it! Drewlzoo Oppose 'Crap' isn't offensive. C535 14:46, April 10, 2012 (UTC) Oppose Doesn't count. I've said this: (highlight to view) Hell and this: Damn multiple times, and I've never been warned. For that matter, I even saw CJC95 say (highlight to view) : bullshit once(December 19th, 2011), and he didn't get anything for it. Just ask Mythrun. And please don't ban me for saying that word, I was quoting someone else. DM1 15:28, April 10, 2012 (UTC) CJC says a lot that he shouldn't. :P Drewlzoo Oppose You guys know how I feel on this. -15:45, April 11, 2012 (UTC) Also... What about "ass"? We are unable to type "assassin" without being accused of swearing (and possibly teaching new words...). FB100Z • talk • contribs 21:37, April 11, 2012 (UTC) Well, ass is another word for donkey. The word a----le shouldn't be allowed (obviously), but.. I don't know. CM4S Talk Brick of Dawn! "Ass" by itself is fairly tame, but I agree that most of its derivatives are offensive and should thus be blocked. FB100Z • talk • contribs 21:41, April 11, 2012 (UTC) As SSX, mentioned, what about d---? CM4S Talk Brick of Dawn! "Damn," along with "hell," is used in the Christian Bible. FB100Z • talk • contribs 21:45, April 11, 2012 (UTC) I meant d--k. ._. CM4S Talk Brick of Dawn! It's short for Richard, so I'd say no. --Berrybrick (Talk) 21:54, April 11, 2012 (UTC) Also, we can't type "assume" or "assist," which I'm sure we use in everyday speech. FB100Z • talk • contribs 21:54, April 11, 2012 (UTC) Arsenic is a poison. FB100Z • talk • contribs 22:00, April 11, 2012 (UTC) I assume that you were assaulted by an assassin, do you need my assistance? FB100Z • talk • contribs 22:01, April 11, 2012 (UTC) Sorry but I'm very annoyed that ruski is blocked as it's not a swear, offencive, slang slur ANYTHING! It's the Russian word for Russian language!
