Change, Hope or PK

[Tee See Em]

You've probably noticed.


We've moved from tasteslikespam.com to wut.ca.
Censors are back in place.

We are actually going to care about people breaking certain rules, particularly those referring to censor evasion or using racist language.
You aren't allowed to post porn anywhere on the forum, Mature included.

Now, why are we doing this? Well, some of it's a good idea in general, but the primary motivator is PK's school. If we make these changes, there will be little that will offend them too much, and he'll probably be able to post/admin, etc.

Comments, please. If you all think this is stupid, we'll rethink it, but I hope that isn't the case.

can you set filters for specific usergroups?

[PariahKing]

This idea was the suggestion of +t. :V

He deserves credit for its genius.

[PariahKing]

can you set filters for specific usergroups?This would be a great solution if so. You could do it so the default is filtered, but if you wanted to, you could "enable vulgarity." (In itself, this idea is comical.)

I don't think you can, though.

EDIT: Need an errata here.
anything pornographic outside of Maturehas to be "explicitly pornographic" period within or out of mature.

Which is, I know, a lot to ask for. So I will not be ultra offended if everyone votes no and I can't stick around. (Or if people are like, "lol pk sux i dunno want him post'n.")

I don't think you can, though.vBulletin 3.7 Mods – User Optional Word Censorship (http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=176544)

Seems a little buggy, though. We'll see.

[PariahKing]

Should have been a public poll to increase the level of drama involved.

[Tee See Em]

Alternatively, can you make it so that certain forums have certain filters on? ie, mature would be uncensored entirely? Not as good as nal's solution but it's lazy enough to be doable.

EDIT: censor "negrocity"This is actually what I had been thinking of first. It's probably more practical, but there doesn't seem to be an up-to-date plugin that does it, and I really don't feel like touching icky PHP code at the moment. We'll see.

If porn is a deal breaker for you, and you were one of the first 5 to vote yes, we can change your vote.

Well.

If it was a public poll, we could. You're just screwed now.

I can see votes, but I've set it so that PK can't, and I'm not telling him who anyone votes for. (No promises that settings won't be changed randomly in the future, this is TS, but for now, at least.) If anybody does want to change their vote, message me, I'll keep it private and can verify that it's legit.35

I can still do this:

I can still do this too - PK :V

So it's fine by me, even if it requires a bit of effort.

I'm willing to put that effort in for PK's sake. <3

EDIT: :V

[Van]

Fun fact: we more than likely post less porn in Mature than any other forum.

But I like the changes. Filters can actually make things better if you use them right. Look at the SA forums.

And I'd like to keep PK around here. Anything that lowers the good poster to shit poster ratio is fine by me.

Lol.

Don't care much, if I say ÷÷÷÷, people will probably understand what I meant.

Fake edit: Why division characters? o_o

Sounds good. Though I hope you remain current view on the use of the banhammer (only when really needed).



You aren't allowed to post porn anywhere on the forum, Mature included.

Interesting and weird at both times. Why no porn? Isn't Mature ment to be opt-in, so you can choose to not view porn, even if you're 18+? What other purpose would Mature have, other than the confessional? (I agree that that thread should be in an opt-in forum, so that google won't see it, but then again, you might as well make the whole site noindex.)

Furthermore, ATM there's a thread called "Porn sites". Where do you draw the line? Would you censor the word porn too, if that's what would make PK's school's filter beep?

Though, since there hasn't been any porn posted in mature so far, and you're in command, I guess it's possible to enforce this rule. :juggle:

I wouldn't necessarily think it's stupid; I don't care either way. Porn isn't a big deal.

Posting to see if I can still call someone a fez wearing heeblord.

[Tee See Em]

Why has no one commented on the irony of this situation :cry:/:confused:
I remarked on how interesting it was on AIM.

Hey.

Change the filter to hearts again. Division signs are ugly.
