    Can someone remove the bad language filter in the Thunderdome? Its a little bit silly since cursing is obviously allowed.

    There are so many simple methods of getting around the swear filter, I doubt it'd be worth removing even if it were possible...

    Then again, I'm too afraid to post in there anyway :o

    Rather than start a new thread, any chance you guys can add words to the swear filter? One in particular: "Fail"

    Thank you kindly

    I like the swear filter being turned on in the dome if only because it always takes noobs a little while to figure it out. But no objections from me if that's what everyone wants

    Might as well add 'Fianna' while you're at it.

    Meecrob.

    Can't be turned on/off at forum level, only sitewide since it parses and filters out the posts as they go *in* rather than as they come *out*.

    Something like, "oedipal complex having male offspring of a female dog", or
    "Go copulate alone!"?

    Well, sort of. But people should pay attention to what others say and work off the little things they let slip. It's the difference between calling someone a fag and a furry donut-f*cker. Which would get to you more, for example? :)
