whizkid338 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 I was just wondering. In 7th grade Health today we were talking about hard drug, so I started to wonder if they blocked them on rs. I typed in "crack", "meth", and "marijuana". It happens that the actual names are blocked, but not the nicknames. Why not? Your input plz. R.I.P The Old Nite. Heroes get remembered.

blacksimon Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 because drugs have so many street names that in effect of censoring them all, we would be limited to a 1000 word vocabulary on RS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dark_D10 Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Do you know how many words/ combos of words they would have to block to block out all names. And unless the jagex staff are all frequent drug users, I don't think they would be able to keep up with all the names. Actually, the occasional j would explain some of the things in runescape.

fgfuyfyuiuy0 Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 They can't just block out nick names of drugs because most of them are what we use today! Underlines words are the names/nicknames of drugs EXAMPLE: "Did you see that crack in the ground?" If it was banned "Did you see that **** in the ground?" "What? Did you cuss?" OTHERS "My doctor is making me take small amounts of marijuana for my leg that I had surgery on." "This gangster robbed me! If it was banned "This ******** robbed me!" "WTF?" And Yet Another "Buying a pot! 5gp!!!111oneoneshift+1!!" BLOCKED "Buying a ***! 5gp!!!111oneoneshift+1!!" "You examine the ***. Oh wait, it's beeped out..." That's why they aren't blocked. Plus there's too many of them for Jagex to find... I <3 Gears of War 2. Add me on Xbox Live and mention you are from Tif :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Haha yeah the herblore market would be devastated if they blocked all drug terms. Trading would be impossible with all the stars. And yeah there are hundreds of slang terms for drugs these days. Censoring them all would be silly and impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whizkid338 Posted April 28, 2006 Author Share Posted April 28, 2006 I didn't know there were so many. And to fgfuy..., there are no cracks on the ground in runescape, the only one is for Soul's Bane.

whizkid338 Posted April 28, 2006 Author Share Posted April 28, 2006 I understood what you were saying, I was just mentioning it. You were saying that there would be too many words from Jagex to block out and it will make it hard to play runescape normally. R.I.P The Old Nite. Heroes get remembered. But Legends never die.

"Buying a **** for farming." You examine the ****. Oh yeah, we blocked it because you might smoke it... I <3 Gears of War 2.

hazardmaster Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 They censored "lick"?? Try it...I just discovered it when I was teasing my friend "I'm licking an ice cream cone right now =P" Hitler is censored... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bauke Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Why does everything have to be censored? I think it's rediculous. If I say "f you" we all know what I mean. Blocking doesn't help anything. Ow, and why words like lick and suck are being blocked really blows my mind. Come on... what's the harm in saying "this sucks" or something like that? The internet is full of nasty shi.. ehh, cra.. darn, never mind.

SAGE Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Censoring drug names would be pretty stupid as they are multi-purpose and I don't think Jagex would censor Runescape itself anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheepdean Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 words they would have to block: weed pot crack special k crystal lucy diamond popper love grass joint e knives coke dope magic mushrooms horse and many others. and why block them words at all? its not like anyone is going to be using rs for huge drug deals Back by popular demand!And I guess I just wanted to tell you, as the light starts to fade, that you aree the reason, that I am not afraid, and I guess I just wanted to mention, as the heavens will fall, that we will be together soon if we will be anything at all.

Anyone trying to buy herbs or any potions would have a hard time. Any way i dont think many drug dealers are on runescape trying to sell there drugs.... By the way i have a kilogram of weed i need to sell any buyers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
