Title: ***s...Why is "***e" a dirty word?
Post by: cridgedaddy on July 30, 2001, 01:25:26 PM
I\'ve seen a few posts recently where it seems as if the person is talking about Season ***es in games, or other such things, and it is showing up in the forum as "***e" instead of " m o d e ".  This brings up the question:  Why is "m o d " considered a dirty word by the software here all of a sudden?  Just wondering...

I PM\'d Aaron, and he said that it was recently added \'cause people were talkling about M O D chips and that\'s illegal.

It\'s a shame they had to go and do that.  \'Cause I had a pic posted, but now it won\'t show up because it has the word "m.odem" in it and it converts it to ***em, and the pic won\'t load!

If the peeps here would just follow the rule about the no piracy thing, we wouldn\'t be in this mess.  So don\'t blame the M O D, blame the dorks that like to pirate stuff.

I also have troublw with the word "peac.ock," beacuse, well, you know.  (It was in a thread I posted whe I was here in my "infancy.")

Should be in off-topic or prehaps rants and raves or even suggestions. :)

Dunno seems like banning that word is taking it a bit far when a simple thread closing normally does the trick. Either way who am I to question the way the admins run this board. :laughing:

There is a way to type the word model or modem or commodore without the word being censored.  I\'m against piracy discussions on this forum, but that three letter segment is used in many other words!

The method you use does work, except when trying to link a picture or something.

That sucks. That seems a little weird. I\'m sorry to hear about your non-loading pic...:(

Eh, I\'ll get over it.  As long as we keep this forum respectable, I\'m willing to give a little here and there.  The pic wasn\'t that important anyway.

If you had happened to read the "newbies come here" thread, ;) :nerd: ;)

you would know that when you get your picture your stars and title freeze.

Hence, I waited to become a wise member before submitting my picture to Bjorn.

It wasn\'t all about the m o d -chips, it was also the wrong use of the ***-word ( meaning moderator ).

I believe that in few weeks, they will also ban the word moderator to prevent angry geeks calling them names.

Respect :)

Trog, dont\' forget that I said I "assume" that is what happened. I can assure you guys that it has nothing to do with the word moderator, that\'s for sure. Every single one of us has been and will be insulted or abused, so getting rid of that one word won\'t help anything. I figured you were joking about that Joyda, but I wasn\'t sure. :)

Just to clarify one point: The moderators have nothing to do with this. It\'s an admin thing, so either it\'s mm or SoulGrind\'s work. My guess would be mm.

It was probably mm...the piracy thing was gettin\' a bit too frequent though. I don\'t really care or want to partipate in that sort of activity.

Funniest thing is that you got to 1400 posts in the amount of time a normal person would have gotten to 100.

A strange world we live in, with stange "abnormal" people.

But as I hear it I\'m not the only one to do this.

Post by: AlteredBeast on July 31, 2001, 06:55:16 PM
no, you are. But some people have done like 400 in a month, but that was through senseless spamming and needless replies and posts. At least you don\'t spam...

I got my title changed after 1400 so I could change it to wise member and have my added title. I am sure they can change it from old to wise.


although it aint important, just looks wrong when I look at it. :)

I made a thread titled "PS2 mod chips". Even though the thread was all about Xenogears, and had NOTHING WHATSOEVER TO DO WITH *******S AT ALL some bonehead deleted the thread. I want to know who.

well it seems that i missed this whole deal but feel the need to say that was a pretty cruddy deal although now its fixed - especially since it made it to where you couldn\'t say Mods
