Are you allowed to "Mask" swear words?

[TriangleAttack]

I know some people who say "Fudge" and stuff like that, can I report that as swearing?

 

[KidBit]

no fudge is fine in less they actually say a real swear or try to change like the F word and do something like this "fU3k" or something like that or try to use an actual swear but change it enough that it is still a swear but passes the filter

 

[Jaistrix]

There is a difference between masking swear words and replacing swear words. Saying fudge is replacing the word and doesn't have any relation to a swear word other than the fact that its in the place of where a swear word could be. Masking is when you change the characters in the word to get around the filter but still make the word look like a swear word.

Nope, some people might just say fudge not meaning the f word.

 

[Ducky]

Nope. You can't.

it is context that would ruin this

"Like fudge that hurt"
or
"I like fudge it is my favourite desert

What about the word "crap", does it count as masking?

"Like crap, that hurt"
or
"I like crap it's my favourite dessert"

Well, you can report anything but you won't get a good reputation with staff members.

this is an example


also where do you live that you have that for desert
i know what city you live in and last time i checked that is not what they served

also people might take that word more personally then fudge

"You are a big piece of crap"
comparing to
"You are a big piece of fudge"

in the second one they won't likely take it as personally as the first
because even if they were using fudge to mask the "F Word" that wouldn't actually make sense in the context

rather it is saying:
"You are a big piece of desert"

In my opinion the word "fudge" is used as a replacement for the word "fuck". Masking isn't allowed on the network and Forum and you can get punished for it as well (or report another player). Masking is also replacing a letter with a symbol, like "F#ck etc.

Hope this answered your question and of course all the other replies above :)

What about the word "crap"?

 

[Injunction]

In fact I live in an island and not a city ;)

okay i am not very good at geography

the point is i know what part of Italy you live in

 

[Unfearful]

I don't even live in a city ;)

"Crap" isn't that bad, as it's a word you use for something of bad quality. This changes when someone says "You're just crap".

As for the word "fuck", it isn't allowed at all. Not even in this sentence: "I've to do my fucking homework". It's not against someone, but using the word isn't allowed as there play young aged children on our server.

 

[Injunction]

"I've to do my fucking homework".

okay i am assuming you said I've as in I have within a different context


if i am wrong and that sentence actually has another meaning i don't know please tell me that

Well, I can scratch seing a mod cuss off my bucket list. :p
I know you didnt mean it.

Thanks for your help, but I think it really depends on the person checking the report. Since you said what I wanted to hear, will you @DutchLemur will you do all of my reports? <3

Also, to me crap is just as good as the S word. My opinion.

I have ;)

Ok, so problem solved!

Well, instead of seeing it as "masking", you should see it as "bypassing the chat filter". Words like "frick" and "fudge" can be used in a form of harassment while a word like "crap" can't, so that's why it probably isn't allowed. When someone says "frick you" or something like that, you get what he is trying to say, it's just that he changed the letters a bit,

but why

it really doesn't matter what you call it

Words like "frick" and "fudge" can be used in a form of harassment while a word like "crap"

i don't see how you figure this
it can't be used as harassment 100%

When someone says "frick you" or something like that, you get what he is trying to say, it's just that he changed the letters a bit,

not necessarily

people actually use "frick" as a completely different word
still maybe having aggression but nonetheless
