What is the theory behind the word r a p e being reduced to **bleep** like its a smutty unacceptable word that must not be spoken here on Community Spirit?
R a p e is a serious and all too common occurence in our society and already is kept hidden by too many victims who feel the stigma of shame that society in general has attached to it.
It should be, NEEDS to be, freely discussed without any connotations of it being a dirty word.
By bleeping it out you are contributing to the stigma.
If you have a social conscience at all you will fix this immediately.

jo you think the subject of this thread is a joking matter?
on 27-01-2014 12:39 AM
i do find the word filtered a bit of joke as well as other words filtered by system
why so serious though pepe?

because r ape is not a matter to be swept under the carpet, to be treated like its a dirty word not to be spoken and it definitely is not a matter for joking about.

well, this isnt a discussion about the offense of grape its about the word being filtered & who knows the real reasons why the word is filtered by this system, it mightnt be to keep quiet of the offense or swept under the carpet as you put it.
there are many rules on this board i dont agree with too
you take the forum with more passion than what youve revealed

no, i take r ape being treated as a joke and being treated like its something to be kept hidden and not spoken about, it being trivialised to just another naughty word like c arp with passion.
In this day and age this is a disgrace.

good luck in trying to change the system
personally, i think you'll never get the perfect forum
in my experience, theyre all flawed, in one way or another
