Idea for a word filter

Laharl · 10-22-2006, 12:56 AM

We need a word filter on the letter "u" being completely left alone, as well as the letter "r".

I vote they are both replaced with "i am such a moron that i cannot spell three letter words right lol"

No.

It looks worse than the "u" character alone.

Ex: how are i am such a moron that I can not(two words) spell three letter words right lol doing.

Ex: how r u doing?

I'm not trying to be harsh, looking back on prior events.

I totally meant to put this in the garbage bin. :S

Note to self: Don't be reading one section of the site while having another on tab else you'll forget where you're at.

Anyway, the point is to belittle people who can't even spell the word "you" correctly.

Oh, and cannot is perfectly acceptable to use as one word.

I know what I'm doing when it comes to Englishy grammatical junk.

We could but the question is will the people who can do it care enough.

The idea of a more comical swear filter has been floating around for a while now. Only a handful of people can do anything to the system and they probably won't =/

You can't filter singular letters like that.

Yoyou woyould end youp with this.

I still like my idea of "lol" being changed to "ten pound sack of meat."

I haven't used filters before, but if it uses a string as the parameter, " u " and " r " would work.
Unless it uses a parse...

Eh, if we filtered lol, people would probably just start typing lawl instead. Do you think lol or lawl would be a heavier sack of meat?

As long as rofl becomes WAFFLES, then I'm all for the ten pound sack of meat idea.
