And we are within our rights to go elsewhere. I think Indeed.com has forums. Message 6 of 6 (53 Views) |

This very old thread is still active, and shows that the Dice Moderator didn't censor member comments about censorship in the past.

A lot of the words on the filter list are a hold over from a time when I had some VERY nasty posters on these boards that used every derogatory meaning they could find. I will try to look threw the filter today and get some of them removed since those people have moved on. Hope you have a great Friday, Dice Moderator Message 2 of 4 (700 Views) |
nobody Posts: 728 Registered: 09-08-2009 Re: do you really need to censor the word m o nk e y? 09-23-2010 02:45 PM Respectfully, I think it would be better to ban users who verbally abuse others rather than banning language. Censoring the word M onk e y is a perfect example. That's just stupid. Someone who wants to cause trouble can use any innocent word in a derogatory and offensive way, are you going to censor all words? Did you ban dog? If not, why not? Dog is quite freqently used to put people down. How about tool? Clod? Message 3 of 4 (615 Views) |

(No offense intended to any short, hairy programmers.) Message 4 of 4 (519 Views) |
