50% Packetloss Posted June 17, 2004 Report Posted June 17, 2004 Did anyone else notice that Brain was talking to himself in those pictures?And while I'm on the topic of hyperspace...Although the zone is very well done and fun, the no-cussing rule is just re-*BAD WORD*-ed. When i entered Hyperspace, I didn't expect to be regulated by the FCC and they certainly I didn't think that I was in church; but to my surprise I found myself in a Micheal Powell candy land of censorship. I can understand preventing racism and/or using the ?obscene filter but fineing people for cursing is hilarious. You'll find me in hyperspace a lot more if this censorship trend continues, ill be building up a large capital so that Hyperspace can have a cussing day: where Ill pay back everyone for any fines they receive.

Dr Brain Posted June 17, 2004 Report Posted June 17, 2004 Cussing rule has been debated over and over again, and it's still a good idea. You will find that your crusade wont go over like you hope. The mods have little tolerance for people who break the rules on purpose. Yes, I say one line of chat to an arena with no one in it. Please, no more cussing stuff in this topic. If you want to discuss it, post a new topic. Quote
Animate Dreams Posted June 20, 2004 Report Posted June 20, 2004 I must say, that was weird. I saw 50%'s name and immediately remembered that I didn't like him for some reason. Then I remembered, No, that's not 50% that I dislike, that must be someone else. Then I felt like apologizing, before realizing that I hadn't even done anything yet. Then I read the post. 50%, I can tell you how that would end. Everyone participating would end up with a reset account and at least a day of ban, and you'd be banned for a minimum of a month. There are lots of people that quite like the rule, like me, and I know I'm not the only one because I've discussed this before. While I haven't talked to Brain on the matter, I'm pretty sure the rule is there to keep this a family-friendly zone. And, it works well, just not incredibly so. If you can't keep yourself from using these words, then by all means, stay out of Hyperspace. But from your previous comment...you said you'd visit more if they kept it up. In that case, it's getting them a bigger pop. Which...how that's bad for them...I don't get it. Sure, it's messed up logic...but I could say the same to your logic. It's okay to say you can't be racist, which is completely their right, and not to cuss? It's his zone, if he doesn't like it you have to deal with it. I'd think you would know this. You have every right to dislike it, even complain. But don't tell Brain he's wrong. That's just dumb. Quote
