Moderators,

Would you consider editing offensive words the same way cable television stations do? So, instead of "[Mod Edit]" we get something like the following:

whippersnapper
joker
silly goose
goofball
turkey

Thanks.

Bronski,

Thanks for the suggestion (I once considered using completely opposite words in meaning for different TOS-breakers), but we purposely use a very noticeable edit. A [Mod Edit] in someone's post is the same as if we sent a warning PM to that person (and also to anyone who quotes someone using the words). So, if anyone sees that in their posts, they should know they are on notice.


For the Mod Team,


DS
