I saw the the commenting rules and regulations and it said not to use excessive bad language.I think it must no bad language at all!

What if some people cussed,their AP will drop?I know it isn't really necessary but most people that cuss,do it for AP.

MM, Yeah maybe taking some AP points off people for cursing. However, they'd have to be specific on the cursewords. good idea.

you mean if they said '@$$' or the real thing? or 'f***' or the real thing? (im using those as examples) or are u jsut saying if they mention somthing related to the word? just a punishment idea...good idea

I don't think it's a good idea, sometimes words are accidentally typed when trying to type something else, or a word happens to contain a bad word, or sometimes words like 'outward'(not sure if that's still blocked >_&gt are oddly blocked for what seems no apparent reason and it can lead to confusion.

So no, I don't think AP-deducts would be that great an idea, especially when the language gets bad enough they can just be banned.
Although it could have some use o.O

Yeah the actual word.if they try to hide it and not really say it like this @$$ then that will be different.

You can't deduct AP outta nowhere, theres nothing wrong with cussing, we should be 13 right so it's not like it's a big deal. Most comments with severe cussing gets deleted.

plokkey has a point...we are just expressing ourselves and if it gets too severe it gets deleted or severe enough they get banned... plus some people consider some words not as bad as others do... the good thing out of it is that the people then know that the site is supposed to be cleaner than they are...

Off Topic:This is the thread #2600!!

I rarely see anyone cuss accidentally.Maybe we need a list of words that are going to be hidden by this "*" if you say them.

Comments?Flagging?I think cussing one or twice is not that bad but some people do it regularly.If they get deleted the lose AP right so it will be kind of the same thing.

sometimes one * is the same thing as typing ****... one star is recognized as 4 or 5...would that go into play with this idea?

Not cuss accidentaly, spell something wrong and not notice it and it just happens to be a cuss word, that happens quite a bit because not everyone knows the words,and most people don't exactly use Spell Check with their most interesting spelling ^~^

That would not work because it would basically be a big list of swear words.

This idea is okay... but it would have to be really bad cussing, and if it's that bad they just get banned.

juan: me explain more or raptor? if me then one star (*) is the same thing as typing 4 stars (****) to substitute another word on some sites... i was asking if this would be a site that it wouldnt matter how many stars there were in place of a word if ur idea took place

Lol! Are you saying they should put a list of cusses??

That's already happens? What is your suggestion exactly?

I think that they should lose about 10 points for cussing.
