I have a cat and her name is Snook.u.m.s, yet I can't post her name on this board because when I do it looks like this: Snoo***s.

That's stupid. I understand why you have to block out **** and ****, but a.s.s is a word that is not just a cuss word, and neither is d.i.c.k. It's crazy that when someone is talking about Cheney, his name is edited.

I personally think that you are taking this editing cuss words thing way too far. I would like to talk about my cat on this board without having to put periods in the middle of her name.

My mother named my cat. If you knew my mother, you would consider the cat lucky.

This has already been established my moi. No need to apologize. Your opinion is right.

There's TV to do that. But whatever. I guess it's their job to do that since this is a site for youth.

I guess they just want to protect those who are easily offended. Also because this site is mostly visited by kids who are underage, so they are trying to make it appropriate for them so that parents are not concerned. I don't know, I think those are some of the reasons why they edit words.

sweet day.

idk why they bother editing either, i mean most of us go to public school and hear this crap everyday so its not like we dont know wut people are saying. Besides it makes converstaions confusing....

i dont understand why it is edited at all. its a personal choice to use those words. and anyone offended by one should take that up with the person using it themselves... does that make sense at all... i am so outta it, as usual. and ppl shouldn't complain just for the sake of complaining, dont say something OFFENDS you when it really doesn't.

this site is for youth and youth will sooner or later need to grow up and learn how to deal with these WORDS!
