If I ever make it to the point where I have a removedin' deck overlooking some fine wilderness then you're damn right I'm gonna piss off it.
I'm curious what word you tried to use. I didn't think "fuck" was filtered on dot ml.
"Bitchin'"?
Does ml auto-censor posts for mildly spicy language or something?
Yeah it’s a pretty pathetic community.
Anything that could be remotely considered a slur.
Not swears, just slurs
Including the literal scientific name for a female dog. .ml is a joke.
I mean, I can think of plenty of slurs with innocuous origins. It's about how they're used.
So do they consider the use or no?
No, it's automatic based on a filter list. I wonder if it accounts for other languages though.
je suis en retard
Any ml users want to let me know if it filtered? I set my language to French for that comment.
lmao
Haven't read their policy -- simply saying origin is a useless way to determine whether or not something is a slur.
Well yeah, which is why a blanket ban on "bitch" would be stupid
A blanket ban on any word won't do anything to fix the problem.
Originally they weren't even going to let admins turn it off.
I'm tempted to start a community about the country between Chad and Mali... A nice wholesome community... I'm completely unqualified and know nothing about it but the amount of removed words would be amusing...
I hope you have better luck than I did with my community about Scunthorpe
Dont know nothin' about Scunthorpe but I know about Cockthorpe, learned about it from a couple of hunters.
The newest example being "DEI"
I'm sorry have y'all not seen racists using that as a slur lately? Saw a dude refer to Baltimore's "DEI mayor" the other day
I have not?
Sorry, but... "scientific"?
I think you give the nannies at .ml too much credit.
Female dog probably
Fuckin' for sure.
Nah, they don’t filter “fuck”
The word is “bitchin’”
Y'all are some of the most anti-control people around, and then... use an instance that heavily censors the naughty words you can say.
Recommendation: self censor or ditch that instance!
I like our admin TheDude - responsive, knowledgeable, competent.
