All Networks Make "wtf" muteable

[Ferrcho]

I think that this not good idea. Since people use this as an expression and don't offend anyone, I mean they don't do it to insult anyone.

I'm so sorry, but I vote no.

Like others have said, “wtf” usually meant to be rude to someone. I think wtf shouldnt be mutable, but stfu should, as its obviously trying to offend something.

Personally, when I use 'Wtf' I mean 'What The Fudge'. I use it in a way where I'm confused or shocked over a situation.

I try my best to rarely swear, I occasionally slip up when I get shocked! Oops...

when i say f u i mean flower you

Hey guys!


Currently saying 'wtf' in chat is not reportable. This, in my eyes, if kind of strange, as 'wtf' is pretty offensive.
What makes it even more strange, is the fact that 'fuck / fk' is reportable. Also 'stfu' (what stands for 'shut the fuck up") is reportable, while this is an abbrevation containing fuck just like 'wtf'. On the other side 'Shut up' is not reportable, meaning that the f in 'stfu' is what makes it reportable. Then why is 'wtf' not reportable?!


I think this is pretty strange and complicated, and I think this has to change.

Tell me your opinion!

"Wtf", along with other abbreviations are allowed as they do not say the entire word (if you said it unabbreviated it would be punishable). Other abbreviations like the ones you said are not allowed because they are targeted towards another individual and are meant to offend, and still use the word even if in abbreviated form. I think it's a reasonable middle ground where we allow harmless use of abbreviations but avoid abuse from bad actors.
(Btw avoid saying the entire word, even if for explaining purposes, the censored version explains it just as well and is safer)

No, that is not allowed, since it's targeted towards someone
