That could be beautifully substituted for “pretty flowers”, for example.

As @fowllyd said elsewhere, the possibilities are endless.

Could we also have a glossery of terms for us innocents who don’t always understand some of the more technical terms used by Fatso?

It’s good to know how and why you should feel offended.

Fuck it. We’re going out with a bang.

This is bullshit. If I wish to use the word “fuck” or “cunt” or “ballbag” it’s because I feel it is the best word for the purpose. People should not get to change my words. They should be forced to confront my words and the point of them. And anyone who disagrees is a budgie.

And we’re cured.

Will the naughty words be asterixed with the right number of asterixes and correct initial letter, like the tabloids? Because that still makes me think of the naughty word in question :lou_wink_2:

I don’t understand why things have to change

And oddly, that seems to do the trick for some people. The standard ruleset will do that, yes.

This all sounds like a bunch of MPs who believe in one thing but vote another because they are worried about their seats… which is a little ironic … Profanity is not big or clever… unless used in a clever way. Often on here it is not, but that is not the point. Its an escape, a place where no one is telling me or you what we can or cannot say… often a great release from a shitty day at work where calling the boss a cunt is not on, but calling bletch one is a good substitute… would be a backwards step to try and sanitise this place… would lose its edginess… bit of a sell out IMHO

Anybody who gets offended by words, especially when they are not being directed at them, needs to have a WORD with themself.

You might as well get offended by the weather.

‘Cunt’ is a term of endearment amongst my friends.

From what I understand chutters it will only be sanitised for those who want it sanitised, I don’t care what other people want to see, I care about what I want to see and | will happily continue with the unfiltered version.

It’s entirely swerveable. You won’t see any difference and I certainly won’t be holding back on my language. That’s sort of the point. I hear the concerns and will consider them for the implementation.

Sorry mate, bit drunk, but this is a terrible idea

There are other reasons to do it that aren’t Chapel Kate related. People will need to be logged in to see unfiltered content, which should mean more actual people being online.

Bosses that work out you’ve been posting on Sotonians won’t be able to say “a-ha, you called @cobham-saint a cheesecunt on Sotonians” the other day (much as it may have been merited).
