       Censor is Too Restrictive

       I just saw the discussion thread where you had to buy ad credits
       in order to turn the censor off of your forums because the
       advertisers requested this.
       
       Look, I can somewhat buy the idea that advertisers don't want to
       see this place turned into a haven for **** (p-orn) discussion
       boards or whatever.  Still, the censor on here is way too
       restrictive.  We have a baseball forum, and there are players in
       the league named Wang (W-ang), not to mention the millions of
       people in the world who are named W-ang.  That is a word that
       should not be censored.
       
       We also had someone try to post **** (S T F U), and that's
       hardly anything that's going to offend anyone or turn this place
       into a **** (p-orn) site.
       
       If the advertiser requires a censor, I guess I can somewhat
       understand of getting rid of the obvious stuff (F-bomb, S-word,
       terms that commonly come up in **** (p-orn) movies, etc.),
       although I really don't like it.  (Seriously, "p-orn" is
       censored here too?)
       
       Still when you reach beyond the absolute worst words, though,
       you really get the feeling that you guys are compelling us to
       pay you money for ad credits just so we can turn the censor off,
       and that's going to drive a lot of people away from this place.

       If you would like to make a complaint about the censor from now
       on please use the thread found in the CreateAForum discussion
       board.
