Swear Filter - Testing and Suggestions

[AB Editor]

Dear All,

As you know we're always trying to extend the swear filter, so, in this thread only, could be as obscene as possible please?

Any suggestion for what they could be translated into would be good too.

All the best

That's because it's a load of Swedish, Mike;-) Jävla is damned and fubbik is a regional word from the south of Sweden where I grew up. It's like... well there's no word for it even in the King's Swedish but I would say it's like a major idiot:)

You've got it, Wolf, that's what I'm doing:) Haven't heard 'cudgie', must look it up. What had you written instead of 'homo' and 'gay'...?

Och goddag på dig själv Answerprancer!

As we're going multilingual, here are a few Russian ones:

Отъебись! Ёб твою мать! Иди на хуй!

[B00]

Bugger off

[B00]

Yay, ok ,im happy....carry on!

[jno]

is that one of them gritty northern phrases, B00? What's it mean?

[B00]

I've no idea, me being innocent and all that jno, I just say it...alot!

Errr, you laughing?

[naomi24]

Got to try this.

Twerp.

[jno]

I'm definitely adding it to my vocabulary, B00, in case I ever go north of Watford.

It is the substitution of an 'unacceptable' word by another 'safe' word which drives me crackers!
In the crossword section ( Not Chatterbank) I was attempting to explain a crossword answer to a questioner. The word was Parish and the wordplay was bottle in the local area.
I tried to advise that it was ARIS ( or Ar$e / Cockney slang ARIS(totle) (bottle) in PH (public House) P ARIS H
Your censor decided that it should be ELBOW in PH !!!!!!

[naomi24]

Well, 'twerp' doesn't seem to be deemed offensive. I wonder why when I typed it in a one line post, the whole post was removed? Curious.

[swedeheart]

I agree, kayakamina. Have you posted about it in Suggestions? I would, only I don't have any good examples, but you do.

[naomi24]

I agree too kayakamina. If a word's considered offensive why not just star it out as it used to be? This substitution thing is not even funny. It's infantile.

nits, doc?

That blооdy swear filter is crap.

I feel uncomfortable with this Ed- this is where a preview button would help!

[ChuckFickens]

You have permission to do it though Factor.... so why feel uncomfortable...
