So you know how if you type the S word, it's automatically changed to "SHIRT"? The results of this poll will determine in permanence whether bad words on SPOTM will automatically be changed to something less profane.
If it is decided that bad words WILL be censored, then a discussion will be started to determine among SPOTM members what the censored words will be auto-corrected to.

I think they shouldn't be censored.
The SHIRT thing is funny (wheezywaiter), but it's not like we can't say bullshit or whatever because it's more of an inside joke than an actual censor.

How about an option to turn censors on or off, and they are automatically on until changed.

Should they? No, I don't think so, is not necessary, but honestly, if you decided to do that I wouldn't really care that much =P.

I think they are parsed automatically after submitting the post, so there's no way to turn it on or off individually.

Changing sh*t to SHIRT was funny because it was a Wheezy Waiter reference.
And Wheezy Waiter isn't exactly known for censorship, since he's know for such phrases as "Get Drunk!" and "Beer after coffee, I'm drinking, so fuckoffee!"
Honestly though - we're all mature enough to not use swear words in excess - and other then SHIRT, let's not censor things

It should be noted that for now, this is an absolute one-way-or-the-other scenario. We currently don't have the option for individual members to decide if bad words are censored or not. Keep in mind new and young members too. We want to keep this forum age-appropriate for anyone. After all, this WAS Zang before he learned about the f-word on SPOTM:  |
