    @Paekakboyz said in It's the language police again:

    This has been going on for years with gaming streamers on the major platforms (twitch and youtube). Any number of streamers, including some pretty edgy mofo's, have really reined in their language to stay within the platform rules. There are always a few instances of streamers being banned or suspended for X, Y, Z behaviour which often involves 'bad' language or going hard at someone (aka bullying). But generally people think it has improved the scene - if only Twitch would grow a pair and start banning the blatant booty/boobie streamers - that's an entire meme universe in itself.

    It's a sad day when we can't post some pics of hawt TnA and make a bunch of object based comments without getting in trouble with the online Po Po. Not like we are going all Wine Steen or anything

    @mariner4life Yes.

    Just as well you didn't go on with that. I think GGle would have issues with some of the other lyrics.

    Review passed. We have been allowed out of the naughty corner.

    The last thing we needed to remove? Well the last one was all @jegga 's fault..

    A c word that rhymes with duck was heavily used in several recent posts about Canadian Politics.
    Maybe it was probably the volume rather than the word itself? No idea..

    But please don't use that word. That shouldn't be too hard as it's not early 2016 anymore

    @jegga

    Yes it's silly

    Not sure why ads are getting taken away so often. We must be on a higher watch list.

    For instance PR has google ads. Is their content cleaner??

    Hell no , it’s a cesspit. Maybe it’s because they get a ton more traffic from different parts of the world ? More $$$ for a certain ad company.

    The f word and c word are censored on PR (which you can work around by italicising one letter in the word) but otherwise it's a free-for-all.

    @Duluth Wow they are idiots - The word originates from the cuckoo bird that lays eggs in other birds nests for them to raise. Yes it has evolved a bit on the net but it's not an expletive and you said the problem was "sexual" content not "shocking" content.

    The whole thing is ludicrous and irks me. I am irked. Ggle are a bunch of cuckoos.

    Check this thread
    https://www.forum.thesilverfern.com/topic/3744/pay-to-not-see-ads

    Also @Duluth is right , times have moved on Cuttlefish is the new way of describing these creeps

    @jegga I have just had a scan of that thread and I think that we can just agree to use cuttlefish in future. For example the prime minister of Canada is a Cuttlefish. I'm sure @Duluth can make that happen automagically.

    You do seem to be the cause of a lot of the problems though...

    I am also happy to make a small donation in order to use the words that actually express what I am saying.
