I've been seeing people using the abbreviations with cuss words in them. ☹️
Isn't it still counted as cussing? Shouldn't it be added to the rules that they can't use the cussing abbreviations too?
Cause I've been noticing it lately. I'm not wondering why I haven't reported it >_>
But should we report it, as well as whole out cussing? And some of the abbreviations have REALLY REALLY BAD WORDS

Yes, I don't think it should be allowed. I've seen a few lately too, and I don't like it.

Or using *'s and stuff to replace the bad word, I don't like it either and in my head it's still considered cursing.

@cubexline
Yeah. It's like, they replace 1 or 2 letters, and you can sitll tell what the word is. On another site people were misspelling the word with letters that still make it sound like the word. I hope that doesn't start on here ☹️

@whispers: I see that too on another site I use, I won't cite examples 😋 I understand the whole freedom of speech thing, but not on a kids/pg site where younger kids can get in trouble because of someone else cursing or something.

@cubexline
Yeah >_>
And that one site is for like 5 year olds >_>
And sometimes I let my little sister go on my acc to play around since she's not old enough to get one, and I won't let her get on anymore because of it

@cubexline People don't have complete freedom of speech anyway. So you're right, no one can pull the freedom of speech card on this one. Bad words are bad words, it's like telling someone not to think of something when you put the * there. You have to think of it.

I do agree.

Abbreviations, without using examples, that are meant to cuss shouldn't be allowed and they probably aren't.

And using random things like *@*@ or whatever instead of saying the word is just as bad.

@whispers

Do you think saying gibberish like "oiehfniuehrnfiuehr" stands for cuss words?

Just a question ._.

@whispers

Exactly ._.

And I see people it these 'rants' saying cuss words. REAL ONES. but they got thrown off the site. "^%$^#$^@$#%" stands for a cuss word, right?

@mewlynnmagic More like a person face palming their keyboard.

I don't want to get nit-picky though. I would give examples but I might be thrown off the site >.> But "Omg" is fine, and a few others that I would maybe get banned for saying.

Maybe it does justify cussing if you use abbreviations. I don't like to cuss, but I mean I think I knew all of them since I was like 6. I dunno what I am getting at, it doesn't really bug me I guess. There are bigger things to deal with, like hacking, and faulty trades, and such.

I also don't think cuss words should even BE allowed, censored or not!
