Add "D4" to boards censor

    Very Simple.

    Should "D4" be added to the boards auto-censor, along with the likes of *****, ******* or, my personal favourite, ***** *** ****?

    I don't think there's any need to explain this - I'll let other people play advocate in this case. I just thought I'd get the ball rolling.

    no, why is it offensive? are they seeking legal action against boards?

    it's just label, so should emo/skater/rocker/goth etc etc be censored too?

    Asterisks are boring....putting a script in that changes the word you wish to censor to an hilarious (or not) alternative word is much more apt.
    Besides, getting around filters is easy...

    I think when you put forward a stupid idea you normally do have to explain it, or else everyone just thinks you are a nutter.

    All we need now is a suitable replacement for D4 that nearly tells us what it is, without offending anyone...

    Can we not just censor the Deefers?

    No, wait. Censor the wannabe Deefers. Some born-and-bred Deefers are actually decent sorts really, once you get past the ridiculous accent. Tis the people who grew up talking in a normal voice right up until they went to college/got a good job and then suddenly transmogrified into faux-Deefers that should be shot.
