Just received my A child conceived out of wedlock games (a child conceived out of wedlock Alien Storm and A child conceived out of wedlock Dynamite Duke) from A child conceived out of wedlock Rupert. Thanks, A child conceived out of wedlock! ;D Apparently the word "a child conceived out of wedlock" has been censored as evidenced by the above quote. Was somebody offended?

There has always been some censorship on here. Although I did add a few word the other day.
Is it totally nessecary to swear in every sentance? Is this the way you really speak?
Remember this is a video game site frequented by children as well as adults.

Don't think that I have ever really sworn on here except for the occasional use of the word faeces and using the newly naughty b word once. I understand censoring foul and offensive language... but "a child conceived out of wedlock " might be going a little bit too far. What's next? hell- "a fiery place that may or may not exist" darn- "to mend clothing" damn- "declare to be bad" or "a structure used to control the flow of water" bum- "where poop comes from" or "a housing challenged individual" I'm not trying to stir up any trouble here as this topic doesn't really affect people's enjoyment of the forum, I just found it to be a curious addition to the list. I'll drop it now.

I like those examples, perhaps we should use them ;D
The occassional slip up is ok, nobodys perfect, but when people insist on swearing all the time its just annoying to have to read.

As Playgeneration says. The occasional slip up is fine, as are the less offensive words you've written above. But swearing for the sake it is a bit much, as is swearing in profile names and signatures. It doesn't do much to promote the sites friendliness to potential new members.
It's not directed specifically to yourself Estimated Prophet, don't worry about it.

It was probably brought on by my homebrew game idea I don't consider b*st*rd a swear word, especially in the context I usedit when I got my games from Rupert. Yes, sometimes I talk like that in person when I am feeling mischeivious. I noticed it missed one with capitalization. As for real swearing, you'll notice I do very very little of that on here. I save that stuff for YouTube. Sometimes I will use the S-Word because I like when it's replaced by faeces. That is a great word. For bum, maybe "Jobless leech" would be good, since housing challenged, or locationally challenged people are really called homeless.. IT would be fun if every single major word, like the, was, game, and so forth was censored. Posts would really look crazy. Maybe do that for April Fools. EDIT:Okay, hold on. I was looking through some other sections for a post and came across something. Does the word a.nal really need to be censored?? I have not seen anyone use it in any way except to mean extremely picky. This is going a bit too far. I don't think people on here are that a.nal to want a.nal to be censored. Here is what I mean. So everyone knows what WTF means. It's offensive. Censor it to something else. Like YKK, which is a zipper company.

What about when I was talking about my a.nal fistula? Go talk about it somewhere else then Stan, this is a sega forum unless you forgot? As an admin you should not be encouraging this. I know there is legitimate usage for that word, but it is too easily abused. Maybe I'm wrong. If I am feel free to PM me. It seems the tone has been lowered so much here recently it seems to have hit rock bottom, possibly on the reasons that many of the older members no longer seem to frequent these forums? Is it because it looks like another juvenile forum for "kewl l33t" people?

And it was in the Off Topic section, which is proper. I think majority should rule. Has someone actually complained about something, or is this the pre-emptive "It's offensive to so-and-so even though no one said anything" nonsense the socialist do when they call Christmas the "Holiday Season" and all the other PC crap they pull? If a lot of people are overly sensitive - which from reading many posts on here, they are not - and are offended, then fine. But if it's one person, or even no one, then I don't see why there is sudden China-style censorship on here. I haven't seen a.nal abused on this forum.

No offense man, but rock bottom? This is the first time you've really been posting here in awhile, all the usual guys post as they always have, except for onyx, who I was told bailed out of the scene altogether. I'm not sure what you're talking about.

I agree with Stan. Far from Rock Bottom. The Genesis Gamer board from our great friend Sega Fan is an example of rock bottom.

Well, that Chinese didn't come out right on here.
