February 17, 200620 yr yes swearing , we all do it , most of us , and since runescape is for people that are now 13 + years old cant we atleast use small swear words ? i mean on movie ratings 13 + ( this is international i think ) contains mild sex referencs and some bad language, but on runescape , oh no no no , you said a dirty word i munna report you noob . i think its sad that runescape has wraped its players in cotton woll p.s yes i know im pants at spelling p.s.s first post !
February 17, 200620 yr Author and the sad thing is that if you post that on the runescape fourms it would probaly go down as encorging other to break rules ? very very sad. any way im out now
February 17, 200620 yr I personally think it is better to have a filter, as it encourages a higher standard of speech. For younger players (such as myself) it is also a good way to teach respect for other people and how to interact nicely. I think taking away the filter would just ruin the game with unneccessary swearing. It's bad enough that people already bypass the filter anyway.
February 17, 200620 yr You know what's REALLY sad? You got your first 3 posts in this crappy rant... Unless you're eminem, you don't need to swear all the time.
February 17, 200620 yr Actually, I've heard some ppl in the RS forums saying that they are 8 or 9, so it's not true that only ppl 13+ play RS. And even though i'm 16, I don't want the censor changed anyway. I don't like people cussing in real life, unless it's a real good reason.
February 17, 200620 yr I personally view cursing as the inability of a person to intelligently display their feelings, and as such do not appreciate curse words in the least. I'd rather the censor stay firmly in place. Add your blog to the BlogScape Index!SaidinWoT can now be tracked easily on weekends - Erm, maybe when I start playing again.Levels do not measure intelligence OR maturity.
February 17, 200620 yr No matter how hard runescape tries there will always be players under 13, Age is'nt really important, its maturity that makes a person. If you can't think of anything better to do then cuss, your not mature. And i'm sure there are alot of adults who don't like the amount of swearing there already is.
February 17, 200620 yr I say those who curse just have a really small vocab and dont know any better words so if there so uneducated that they cant use appropriate English then they shouldnt be playin in the first place! Join the petition for a new bank page layout! -This is the best thing since sliced bread!!
February 17, 200620 yr uhhh 9 year olds r playing, do you really wanna expose em to that type of stuff....Of course this isn't as bad as the guy on rs forum saying you should grow pot... :roll: Click for mah Blog!- I'm not sure why you would though because i never update it Achieved 99 Thieving 3/10/07-992nd to it
February 18, 200620 yr RS need not to do anyting to the filter but update it more. Swearing doesn't mean you have a little vocabulary. Take me fo instance, I swear when people have it coming and also I'm a slow typer so using my big words takes to long to type and the speech bar(s) are far to short. Rap on EMINEM In Game Name 'Jesster King''Dead People Argue Not' - me
February 19, 200620 yr I just want the BAD WORDS to be filtered, not like Hello, do you want yews? That would come out liek this: Hello, wo*****u like yews? "The cry of the poor is not always just, but if you never hear it you'll never know what justice is."
February 22, 200620 yr Oh yes, we really need a filter in this game! After all, it's not like they've never heard curse words before!
February 22, 200620 yr uhhh 9 year olds r playing, do you really wanna expose em to that type of stuff....Of course this isn't as bad as the guy on rs forum saying you should grow pot... :roll: well.. shouldnt you?
February 22, 200620 yr people have already found a way around the filter so if it udated then people will find a way around it again. the filter is good but could use a little tuneing up to catch edited swears.
February 23, 200620 yr the filter isn't really that good.... if i say grass like "wow!! now the grass looks so real!! they're going to edit out the last 3 letters... makes me angry and really, the filter is pretty much as bad as my boarding school is... and our filter makes us go crazy.... Sorry for the off-topicness, but is that the god for Pastafarians? I've heard so much about these cultists/teenagers/people

Rap on EMINEM At least try to have some dignity... I think if anything the filter should be stronger. fan of her's.You know what I hate? People putting an apostrophe on a personal pronoun. STOP IT.

UNDERAGE TIPIT USER ALERT lol im jking but the filter doesnt work. people still say bad things just by using different sumbols.
February 25, 200620 yr In case noneof you've realized, "Tip.it" is nowcensored :roll: As I recall Jagex used to link to tip.it's site on the main website page?
February 25, 200620 yr IF we could use any "bad" words, thats all that ppl would use!!! :D 99 Pics - Range, Defence, HP, Attack, Magic, Strength, Cooking
February 25, 200620 yr do you guys remember way back when u started playing runescape2 ? where you had to chose your age ? i wish that when for example you chose age 18-30 (for example) wen you swear something really rude only a player your age can read that and younger players will still see it as the good old "*****" , and one more thing ... the filter needs tweaking because when i say (selling nats!!!) it takes the nats and the exclamations as the word (natsi) which we all know what it means !! that is so sucky .. what i want to say is that the filter needs tweaking in both fields .. making it block rude words that have been changed (like shoit) and making it understand what the player really meant (nats!!!) ( nats are nature runes)
February 26, 200620 yr well they should make the filter alittle lower because you cant say "has short bow" i think it turns into "h****hort bow"
February 26, 200620 yr **** that is a **od Idea i *now What *ou **** yeah that is a good idea i know what you mean the annoying thing is like ww is ** so when i say oww its o** thats the really stupid thing
February 26, 200620 yr Nah, Jagex should try blocking only the actual words for just a while, then start blocking the most commonly bypassed ones. I can't see saying "Selling Steel Bars, 550 each" as offensive, but it comes out as "Selling Steel B*******0 each". Why I would try to sell my Steel rear end is beyond me. Wow, that's sig worthy. Anywho, swears should remain blocked, I don't care how 'mature' you think rs players are, most of them are juvenilles, and take runescape vocab as real. You have no idea how many times I've heard kids say "lawl" (as in lol) in public. People just need to learn to share crabs.I'd prefer my nether regions clear of diseases, thank you very much.just turn off accept aids
March 6, 200620 yr In some cases, though, there's just no solution. If you allow "gay", then you have everyone using it to insult people. But I can't state as a fact that I'm a lesbian without horribly butchering the English language. *=lezzy The filters are preventing me from talking about the filters. Grr...
