gogurt us just yogurt

It kind of bugs me. I mean, I like that I can freely say it here, but it (in my opinion) is profanity. If we can't say -blam!-, -blam!-, and homo-blam!-, why should we be able to say ass? It's not as if we often discuss donkeys.

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

Its a place the disembodied soul puts his boot.

If we disagree, it's nothing personal, opinions are opinions.
Antagonizing me to build a false sense of worth is so damn cute.

Brighten your day with science.

Because it's part of your body.

I don't get why other things that refer to our bodies are censored.

I don't like censorship anyway, people need to learn to tolerate foul language and not to take it so seriously.

He's right on top of us! I wonder if he is using the same wind we are using...

Because every time someone uses the term ass in this intelligent community, we are referring to the subgenus of Asinus.

I'm assuming the moderation team interprets it as the lesser evil, because the image in your head isn't as bad as some others.

Inappropriate. Went a little to far with the butt hole tearing.

Are you prejudiced against donkeys, OP?

What did asses ever do to you?

Why would it be censored in the first place..?

Ass isnt a swear word.

  • 09.25.2012 9:35 PM PDT

Probably because ass is commonplace in many words like mass, sass, tassle, etcetera. Might be a headache to write down all the exceptions.

Unless it's joined with another word like "dumbass", though that isn't considered a swear.

Anyone but Foman. He smells like cheese.

In several of the four bazillion threads about the profanity filter in the last few months, Achronos has clearly stated the reasons that the profanity filter is the way it is (by the way, I found that after a 30-second Google search... it's not like it's hard to find this information), and has also stated that it will not be changed until the next version of Bungie.net. So until then, we all just have to deal with these incredible injustices.

These threads typically become nothing but people spouting profanity, and I see that this one is no different. There is no reason for this to continue.

Well, we should all keep in mind that the censor list is old as -blam!- and Achronos isn't going to update it until we get Bungie.next so...
