The Hip and Censorship (or lack thereof)
#16

Speaking of censorship... I coulda swore I typed out the whole word without those little ** dealios shown above. That seems kinda new to me, not that I swear a lot on the boards themselves. When did that feature start around here?

a friend of mind has a message board (<!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.buffaloblog.com">www.buffaloblog.com</a><!-- w -->) and if you use bad words, it automatically substitutes them for less harsh words. Pretty strange, it changed word pussy to "girl thingy".

Been like that for quite some time now, although it doesn't always catch the words.

Personally, I think "girl thingy" sounds a bit more offensive. As if to say, "we're not quite sure what to call that" :lol:
