Hello everyone,
Have a nice day
~Rah
- I haven't had a need to use this board really, but there is a problem I would like to address. The issue is with the censored words. I know that no one likes to write an amazing reply, post it to find that words you use harmlessly have been changed. I know that it may anger many of you that it happens. I'd like to inform you that I wish I could allow words like the f-word to be spoken on the site among other words, however Proboards has rules.
I know that on some sites you may have previously been members of, Proboards never deleted them for something so small as using the f-word once. However, I don't want to take chances. Since the content of the site is artistically based, I know that proboards may not be watching us as heavily as if this board was under the 'entertainment' category for roleplay. However, even though it is artistically set, there have to be rules to how far things can go.
The censored words are in place so that we can avoid certain vulgarity that may get the site shut down. Some of the words may not be ones that you personally use in your day to day life, but they will remain there. If the word that is being used to replace certain words is awkward when used in sentences, please, feel free to present them to an admin and offer a probable and acceptable replacement.
The point to this update is that I have noticed many posts trying to avoid the censored words by adding extra letters and such. It is fine by me that you do so if you so choose. However, if it gets to a point, I will add those to the censored list as well. Feel free to use the words, but please be warned. - Also, if this becomes a problem for people, those individuals will receive warnings about the amount of usage and prevention of having words censored. I hope that I won't have to issue any warnings, so please, talk to me or Ren before it escalates to that point. Thank you.
- Last point to this update, there will be a small plot adding sometime soon to encourage people to roleplay more openly. The details will be posted here as soon as they are finalized.
Have a nice day
