Posted: Fri Jan 28, 2005 6:50 pm

Basically the rules are don't be a jerk and no images in signatures!

T-Rex - OMG!

- DEMS THE RULES!

Don't you hate it when people say "The only rule is, there is no rules?"

I HATE THAT.

Posted: Fri Jan 28, 2005 7:16 pm

I hate it... as a rule!

Oh ho ho!

Thank you, thank you, I'll be here all week.

Are you above the law Ryan
Or are you just a man, a man trying to do his job ?

thing is i really *really* like swearing. LOTS. but when i was lurking i noticed that people hardly ever swear. so i try not to. but it's nice to know that if i lapse people won't be sandwiches about it.

I have this problem... I talk on the phone with my mom about once a week and it's getting harder and harder not to talk to her like I talk to my "hip" and "with it" 20-something friends.

"Hey mom. How the hug are you?"

that would be bad.

I drop the f-bomb a fair bit on other forums, but only when I'm discussing something that makes me angry (or faux-angry, because that's more enjoyable).

Here I am rarely angry, and expletives are kept to a minimum.

Username, I would definitely be a sandwich about it! Razz

I must note, that's the best use of the word sandwich I've ever seen.

Quite by accident! I only filter one word on this board, and Username has found it!

It's a fun filter, though, as one can say they ate sandwiches for lunch and people who are IN THE KNOW will raise an eyebrow!

I only say sandwich if I'm genuinely angry - I'll say hug all the time and joke, but if I drop a sandwich my friends know I'm serious, because it's a word I actually don't like very much.

if anyone comes across a post from me that's filled with dirty and offensive words it's because i accidentally hit "submit" instead of "preview."

Utahraptor

why would you do a thing like that?

T-Rex - OMG!

Because I'm curious and bored, you sandwich!

FOUND IT!

We now need a strip that ends with T-Rex saying "Aww, SANDWICHES!"

I just stopped to think about this. How would you go about enforcing this rule? Would you be strict about it?

PARADOXES MAKE ME BLEED FROM MY EARS.

I kinda want to figure out what makes it say sandwiches, but I am afraid to type things it might be! Oh wait, you can figure it out by previewing!

sandwich, sandwich, sandwich!

AWESOME

I guess my obscene vocabulary doesn't extend far enough; I can't figure it out, despite levelling massive abuse at the preview button.

Poor button.

Edit: Never mind, I managed to dredge up more filth from my brain.

HISTORY OF THE FILTER:

One time someone posted a thread about "Oh GOD, eat my sandwich, eat my tasty tasty sandwich", and rather than deleting it (as people had already replied) I instead decided to REWRITE HISTORY.

Posted: Mon Jan 31, 2005 10:07 pm

So what is the bad word? HINT?

Posted: Mon Jan 31, 2005 10:11 pm

HINT: It's the only swear word that I think has not been diluted!

Posted: Mon Jan 31, 2005 10:12 pm

A-ha!

Posted: Mon Jan 31, 2005 10:12 pm

It's not hard to figure out. It was the fourth word on my list... not that I keep a list of bad words around.

sandwich

Posted: Mon Jan 31, 2005 10:14 pm

I just typed them all out, hit "Preview" and figured out which was sandwiched!

I guess I don't swear enough on here.

I knew what it was way back from that crazy post. I know the score, I'm telling you!

Posted: Mon Jan 31, 2005 11:33 pm

I would have changed dogs to say cats!

Another forum someone was saying 'ppl' a lot, so the Dictator changed them all to 'humans', so the person sounded weird.

Also, changed someone's user name to 'Boy Who Refers to himself in the third person'.

THIGH FIVES!

I also added a filter to replace yr with yr, cause some people use that shorthand and this makes it classier all around!

Posted: Tue Feb 01, 2005 2:06 pm

awww... you've filtered away my favorite shorthand!
