Title: Host Censorship
Post by: cybercoma on March 10, 2017, 09:02:12 am
So the host is censoring words through the forum software to appease advertisers. Just a heads up.

You can still say motherfucker though. That's not off limits. The rest of Carlin's Seven Dirty Words are though.

Is this something they  just implemented because I'm pretty sure I've used "bad" words before without the censorship.

Maybe I didn't notice before because you had a trial period with the forum software?

I have joined the ranks of the banned (for a week); this is because I made a joke about shooting SJWs which is 'invoking' violence.   Another poster made a joke about pitting conservatives against each other so they could bludgeon each other to death, but that post remains.   Perhaps SJWs are in short supply so even joking about their demise is not allowed, whereas a thinning of conservatives is needed?      ;D

All joking aside, I am amused.  Especially since I was warned once, didn't see the warning, referred back to my original joke and was summarily banned for ignoring the first warning.  Ah well, I'm pretty sure I was spending too much time there anyway.

I think its a complaint driven system.  My post was complained about, the other wasn't.  Although from the email I got, the banning may have been cause the moderator thought I was ignoring his earlier warning.

I have spoken to MH on that sort of issue and his reply is that they do not feel there is any requirement for consistency in their judgments.

Right now there are basically three lunatics there posting most of the topics, one allegedly from Turkey, one from the far fringes of the left whose only interest, it seems, is a frenzied condemnation of anything related to the US or the West, and the third a dullard of the far right who calls himself a white rights activist. It's sad, really, since all of them are conspiracy freaks and none of them are capable of any rational discussion.
Title: Re: Host Censorship

Well if MH said that then I will wholeheartedly agree. A lack of consistency is one thing that is consistent. And MH is far from the worst over there.

That's the common denominator because that is one of the mods in a nutshell. These are his kinfolk: irrational conspiracy theory loving gadflies.

I've got to imagine the other two mods just banging their heads on a brick wall at this point.

For as wrong as I think you are about immigration, at least you're not an imbecile. You have honest discussions, even if I think some of your views are stupid. In other words, you don't troll and I wouldn't call you a troll even though I disagree with many of the things you say. But that's not what the majority of posts are over there now.

And even if these people honestly believe the nonsensical garbage that they post, that's irrelevant. You don't claim to have a forum for intelligent discussion and then turn around and foster bottom-of-the-barrel conspiracy trash.

I was recently chastised by the mod you speak of for simply hounding one of those gadfly's (the most recent 9-11 one) to try and answer a couple of pertinent questions that he obviously couldn't/wouldn't,  and that made his conspiracy theory look a little thin. I didn't realize there was such a conspiracy to protect conspiracy theories, but I'm seeing it now.

That's 100 percent it in my opinion, its all so dishonest, what's the point in arguing on either side, but the way that site is run you might think they would be just as happy if it was only nutters posting and replying to their own crazy posts.

Something similar happened to me there...

Someone posted a reference to an article. I pointed out the fact that the source of the article was poor (something that even one of the co-moderators had done on occasion). My posting was deleted, but I didn't get the warning. I assumed I made a mistake in posting so I re-posted my comment, and got suspended.

Have to say, at least one of the moderators there has become a complete and total idiot.

You'll have to be more specific about that... there are 2 there that I would classify as "dullards of the far right"... one that openly admits to getting his information from neo-nazi literature, the other that praises that very same individual.

You're forgetting another lunatic... the one who likes to cut and past from christian web sites (with fancy colored fonts) yet seems unwilling/unable to actually create her own content.

One weird bit of censorship...

The word '****'.  (Its a name used by a humor website.) Not sure why that one would be banned by the software. Perhaps they are concerned about how it may refer to hacking/computer security, but the word has so many connotations.

I had something similar as well. I logged in and went into a thread and responded to the most previous post that had been made by the "Head Troll" ( I think might know who I mean...all things Canadian ) before I realized that he/she had completely derailed the thread. My bad I guess for not reading up the page before responding. Guess who got suspended? Not the troll who had done the initial derailment. And that member seems to get away with same constantly.

Not only were the moderators inconsistent, I'd also question why they are so concerned with keeping threads "on topic".

Yes, sometimes a troll can derail an interesting and legitimate thread, but sometimes discussions evolve over time, and the resulting topics can be just as interesting (if not more so) than the original discussions.

Seriously, what does it matter? As far as I'm concerned, the major problem with discussion forums is people's need to personalize political and ideological discussions. Thus instead of discussing those ideas in a congenial atmosphere we feel the need to slap at the people who wrote them, just so they're certain of how indignant we are that they disagree with us.

It should not, in other words, matter who wrote the words. The words themselves are what should concern people who are interested in discussion.

I just noticed this thread.  As you know I have been trying to make serious efforts to improve the quality of dialogue on this forum. In an effort to continue that.. here are some web-sites that can help you.

This one provides words you can use. (my favourite is meat flap)

http://onlineslangdictionary.com/lists/most-vulgar-words/

This one can help you understand the origins (etiology) of some of these words:

https://listverse.com/2015/09/29/10-offensive-english-words-with-hazy-origins/

Now given the difficulty on another thread on the origins of the word "genocide" and how it has been  used I recommend you need to refer to the above article on origins and in particularI will provide an except from it:
…**** probably derived from Proto-Germanic, as it was likely present in Old English, and the letter “t” is shared with the Old Frisian kunte, the Old Icelandic kunta, and the Middle Low German kunte. Both the Latin and Germanic derive from Indo-European root words, however, as do the Greek kusos and the Sanskrit kutchi, meaning “ditch.” The word became common in the 13th and 14th centuries, with the red light districts of English towns often being called “Gropecuntlane.” However, the word also appeared in surnames like Clawecunte, Sitbithecunte, and Fillecunt.

The first written usage of “****” in the modern sense comes from the 1325 Proverbs of Hendyng, a collection of moral and religious advice in which women are told to, “Give thy cunte wisely and ask for marriage.” A 1440 medical document uses it as a technical term, saying, “In wymmen the necke of the bladdre is schort, & is maad fast to the cunte.” In the mid-19th century, the word was a derogatory term for both men and women but steadily developed its misogynistic edge in the 20th century. It was rarely seen in print until relatively modern times, being left out of the Oxford English Dictionary when it was first compiled."

In an effort to make amends to all women on this forum if the above offends may I suggest they can use these words to describe those of us with testes:

oik
pillock
sock fluid
metalplate
dribbler
skooter
skippy
Butch
Buck
Steven Segal
Harvey Weinstein
Daniel Baboon
drooler ape
syphlitic
polyp
detergent resistant
pouch monkey
urinal backfire
flesh eating disease
battery licker
non savante idiot
or
direction challenged sperm (dcp)

My mission is done for today and may I say I am pleased to see Omni found this "dumb".
 
You are welcome Omni I hope that wasn't too long  a response.

Yes coming from the highbrow mature Omni whose intent of even responding to me was not generated by petulance but a concern for post pubescent discourse on this forum. Got it and may I say in the spirit of this thread and with much love...go phuck yourself.

Thank you for pointing out that I am mature. The rest is a bit of a waste. Now go enjoy your twinkies.

Because I will never interfere with or censor individual posters, I have just removed a topic I started because of too many personal insults. I know I can't claim to be the most civil member of this forum but I regret being any part of where this has headed.

and the waldo apologizes for missing the party! By the by, nuking a thread is the ultimate censorship - ya think?

in any case, the waldo regrets putting the repeat pressure on you to do the right thing - to change your incorrectly worded thread title... which you refused even after being shown the folly of your title premise. As an appeasement measure, the following offers an appropriate summary of the nuked thread - you're welcome:

@Gorgeous Graham

On another thread you made two points about MLW I don't agree with, and don't understand the basis for.

1) the reason MLW went downhill, or maybe was inundated with poor posters is because the mods were too controlling?  Why wouldn't controlling mods want to clamp down and/or kick out poor posters?
2) the assertion that Trumpites and leftists are too sides of the same coin?  Does that mean that you put all conservatives, including maybe yourself, in the same basket as Trumpites?

MLW imploded due to poor moderation.  Some users were suspended or banned for nonsensical reasons in "ban-hammer" sprees, others were allowed to keep posting with impunity with no punishment even though they were clearly breaking the rules.  Many threads are locked simply due to "thread drift".  Imagine silencing all constructive discussion in a thread simply because some of it was "off-topic.

Given this, quite a few people left and came here.  I have no problem with banning or suspending problem posters, but it has to be done fairly and logically.  Power corrupts.

So you said: "They are not creatures of the age of reason.  They are interested in winning and imposing their culture on others."

I agree many rightwing posters are like this.  But many people on the left, including some on this forum, are like this as well.  We're in the middle of a culture war right now.  We always have been but it's just cranked up to 10 recently.  Most Trumpites and SJW's have the same agenda: winning and imposing their culture on others.  I'm in no way immune to this.  Politics is about power.  It's about controlling our laws, policies, narratives, culture etc.  For many people, listening to the other side often just gets in the way of this.

Ah I see now.  No, I disagree with almost everything you said.  I don't think that this place has anything to do with it either.  There are just more bad posters around.

Really ?  If you are aware of this problem and still doing it, I guess you are worse than others. 

Myself, I like this thing called political process.  It requires people who are just a little bit smart, though, and that can be a problem.  But the real problem is that it requires people to not think of themselves first and foremost in every situation.

But ok.

Also I don't think ANYONE here is an SJW or a Trumpite unless I'm mistaken.
