I think swearing, or complete swear words should not be allowed in the titles of topics other than in the Muppet room.

B***ocks is ok but not BOLLOCKS so everyone sat behind you at work can see when you open the home page.

Just my view.

I am glad that Stu has changed the settings so titles from the muppet room like "have you ever shit yourself" or "have you ever fisted a girl" appear in the box on the home page

Fair enough on thread titles.
Especially as the thread title becomes the page description, which means its what google will attempt to index, and potentially lots of swearwords could see the site sandboxed im led to believe, although Ive never had that happen personally on any site Ive worked with as commercial sites tend not to include words like fuck or cunt in the title, lol, so its only a rumour im repeating rather than stating as a fact.
Anyone else know if there is any truth in it?

I think words like fuck, cunt, fisting and felching are not words suitable for topic titles, but are great words in the threads.

Also the topic titles should not be shown in the mens room/womens room, before you go into that room

I thought was the case already you couldn't use a swear word in thread title - I got an infraction for saying 'piss take' in one

should i be worried about not knowing what that word means?

i'm too scared to google it

but why not just put every swear word into some sort of filter and change it to another word, of a less vulgar nature but still meaning apprently the same thing?

"bollocks" could then become "testicles", "fuck" would be become "fornicate", etc, etc

imagine the useage of words to mean somethng else

but i quite agree that swearing should not be allowed in the main titles, regardless of which room it is in

I just think that offensive words in titles are just a bit over the top.


No death though if people still insist on saying Cunt and Shit in the titles...


Much Love.
