  • Petition to uncensor name of Republican vice-presidential candidate

    I mean, it's pretty comical that it's showing up as **** Cheney - even moreso because it looks like you're typing Fvck Cheney.

      maybe the sensor can be changed in such a way that it will filter out the word if it's all small letters, but will not apply the filter if the D is capitalized?

        I think the forums should not be a place to promote any political figures from any countries. Just my two cents.

          It's in the OTF...off-topic

          ...and besides...how many of us promote the political figures? Most of us just criticize the hell outta 'em

                  I agree Stefu, but I've been griping about the auto censor for awhile now. I thought that was why we had Mods? Instead people avoid being censored by a variety of tactics (when the want to be profane) and names like the VP candidate are edited out as offensive.

                  You can still call someone a wanker though. Go figure.

                    Why would ****** Leibermann need to be removed from the censorship list? It isn't currently on there, as far as I know!

                      Just write the word "Dick" in smileys to get over the auto-censor ... but really, any veteran OTer should know how to write Dick Cheney. This case reminds me of connorkimbro's joke about French...
