Naota Takizawa Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 (edited) I'm not saying these words should be uncensored, I'm just wondering why these words are censored when they have lost all their power to offend people. EDIT: The words I am referring to are the name of the devil's home & a 4 letter word starting with D and ending with N.

believe victims Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 ...well, it's a little hard to tell, isn't it? Mostly because I have no idea what words those are. It would be a pretty bad word filter if I could, after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naota Takizawa Posted June 5, 2015 Author Share Posted June 5, 2015 One word is the name of the devil's home. The other one starts with D and ends with N. It's four letters long.

Voltex Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 (edited) One is inherently offensive in many contexts, especially towards those of particular religions (a subject this site has rules about avoiding). The other is just your standard curse word (although I might be unaware of further histories associated with it). There are many, many (I seriously can't stress this enough) parents out there that would take offense to both of those words - and thus, if they were to see them being used on a site like BZPower, it is very likely that they would not allow their children to use BZPower any longer. It would damage the site's credibility as a safe place for people to discuss Bionicle, Hero Factory, and other Lego themes - all of which are targeted primarily towards children. That's all I'm going to say. Edited June 5, 2015 by Lucina 1 JOIN AETHERGARDE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
believe victims Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Oh. Yeah, as Lucina said, those are both your standard curse words; if BZPower allowed them and parents found out, they'd come under some pretty heavy fire. Like LEGO, BZPower strives to maintain a family-friendly atmosphere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
