and to that I say.....thats very uncool.
as for editing, I dont think anyone should have that power. anyone who was a mod could just change someone's post and say a bunch of untrue shit.
but whatever.......

[Zing79]

relax its a only short rib put there to drive home the point..

I left YOUR post completely untouched. :biggrin:

and yes we could do that, but let me ask you a question (since you're such an x-files conspiracy freak :biggrin, how quickly do you think that a mod would get thrown out on his butt if he did that?

[KidKrazyShit]

hmm.....good point, prolly not to long.

no, im not an "x-files conspiracy freak" I just like to get deep, deep, down to the cold hard facts.
ok im done

Nantuko Joe..
just because someone shoots someone in the head everyday and a kid knows and hears about it doesn't mean we should expose them to it.
just because every few minutes a women is rapped and a kid knows and hears about it doesn't mean we should expose them to it.

you see the point?...there are LOTS of things kids are exposed to everyday which they shouldn't be.

and saying swearing is part of everyday life is spoken like a true and immature child.

by your logic a worker should be able to tell customers, "heres your fuc**ng order, now enjoy it you m**herf*cker...
THAT is NOT acceptable.
Not in real life and most definately not in here.

Get real. How the #### can you compare swearing to murder and rape? Swearing is something that kids ARE ALWAYS exposed to, (like I said, whether it be at home, school, work, or with friends). But how often, in REAL LIFE, is a kid exposed to seeing someone being shot in the head or seeing a woman get raped? I'm not talking about TV. Dont even make me bring TV into this conversation. I'm talking about the real world. Kids hear swearing ALL THE TIME in the real world. They DO NOT experience murder and rape ALL THE TIME in the real world, ON A DAILY, CURRENT BASIS.

And I'm not saying that it's okay for someone to say "Here's your f**king order, now enjoy it you mother f**ker." I'm saying that people are exposed to swearing every day. I am in no way telling people to swear. I'm saying that it's a part of everyday life, and people have to get used to it, and don't give me that &#36hit like "I can get used to it, I can put in a filter and start banning people." thing that TMyApp gave me because that's not getting used to it, that's merely trying to avoid it.

So what are you "Top" people trying to get into? Video game programming or something else?
I wanna know :biggrin:

[Zing79]

I wanted to read all that but theres really no point Joe.

when you get older you'll realize that kids should not be exposed to that...
you'll learn that setting a higher standard and sticking to it is the only way to go...
and most importantly you'll learn that taking the stance that "it happens, deal with it" is the worst thing one can do.

and for the life of me I can't fathom what kind of pathetic adult supervisionyou have if no one around you is driving home the point that swearing is wrong.

I really wish you would understand this simple fact.
parents control what they're kids do
parents will now allow they're children to be exposed to filth
if we don't ensure that, parents will not allow they're children to come here
if we can't show this is game for everybody, then we've failed badly

i dont' recall putting anything on a resume (or even having one for that matter ??) :biggrin:

in now way did i make the game to have a "cool looking" resume... but... in any case

Nantuko: i AM sick and tired of you using profanity in your posts to defend profanity !!! u r wasting MY time (since i have to edit the posts to add those stars)...

2nd... don't call me "immature"

i am VERY tired (since all I do is work)... the 4 player mode is running @least 2 weeks behind... so the issue of "profanity and how people feel about it" really doesn't concern me

this was NOT a "what do you all think of a filter being put in?" thread... there was no question mark of any kind in the original post...

so, i will say this one last time... if the pointless swearing continues, the filter will come on, and all who try to push me by
