Forums - Is it a bad word?

This page is an archive. Please do not edit the contents of this page. Comment: no it isn't 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) Oppose - I use it all the time, I don't consider it a swear. O.o - 19:58, April 12, 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) One time on the LU wiki, a filter for that was put in place. Things got fun when "Assembly", one of the factions in the game, started turning into "embly"... Jamesster.LEGO (talk) 20:34, 4/12/2012 Ironically, that would have taught a new word :P FB100Z • talk • contribs 01:19, April 14, 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! Prisinorzero 22:03, April 11, 2012 (UTC) Let's also block "English," "Espanol," "Francais," "Deutsche," "Esperanto," "lojbau" and all that. FB100Z • talk • contribs 22:05, April 11, 2012 (UTC) Don't forget Creole!--Berrybrick (Talk) 22:07, April 11, 2012 (UTC) Please note, I am not being serious and I am not actually supporting this Well you should because other wise it's racism! Prisinorzero 10:11, April 12, 2012 (UTC) Berry are you saying not to unblock it? Prisinorzero 17:47, April 12, 2012 (UTC) Nobody ever reads the small print --Berrybrick (Talk) 17:52, April 12, 2012 (UTC) ...why was "ruski" blocked in the first place? - 19:58, April 12, 2012 (UTC) List was copied from here ~ CJC 20:20, April 12, 2012 (UTC)
