Do you think I could just leave this part blank and it'd be okay? We're just going to replace the whole thing with a header image anyway, right?

Regarding rules in-game and forum rules..

First of all, in-game rules state:

Rules wrote:

"contains swearing at others or bypasses the word filter."

Secondly forum rules state: 

Forum Rules wrote:

Do not dodge the language censors. Tag any images or videos that contain swearing.

Now that is mentioned I want to say these two rules are very similar yet, aren't on the same based platform.
In-game you can easily cut it off which allows you to see inappropriate words mentioned in chat.
Forums there isn't a way to censor the inappropriate words mentioned in chat. EXCEPTION: YOU TAG IT!

With tagging stuff in-forums it creates more of a hassle and it shouldn't be that way.. It should simply be no inappropriate words at all in-game and on forums or you can state inappropriate words all you want with no consequences.
I don't think there should be a in-between as there is a big hassle and it causes a lot of issues..

So with all that being stated I think censorship rule on the forums should be analyzed over and in-game;

Best things to do: Remove the censorship completely and don't harass players about their freedom of speech.

Forum rules and game rules should have a same based platform.

Re: Regarding rules in-game and forum rules..

EE and these forums have always had a distinction, administratively. Same goes for their rules; they're going to be different.

I do agree, however, that an option to turn off swear filters would be nice.

Yes it would greatly be appreciated in all circumstances since whoever created the rules didn't do a great job on them.
Since, you can get punished on forums for swearing without tagging it and not get punished in-game.

you can take the image and black it out as we have done for centuries hence

maxi123 wrote:

we do. That's the whole point with the tagging as well. The option to make the tagged content always visible and to turn off the filter (I think)

italkalotfromee wrote:

italkalot the central idea is that we have a censor (so does the game). And we try to prevent people from dodging the filter. (hey so does the game). There are a couple options for biding the rule provided one takes the time to keep track.

Are you suggesting that we use the exact same rules?

So can we swear in spoiler!? They say without tagging it's not allowed. I saw people being banned for that.

I believe this is only allowed in the 'funny pictures of ee chat' topic.
With other topics you just have to hope a mod is in a good mood //forums.everybodyedits.com/img/smilies/wink

no. Trigger tags are required for swearing that dodges the filter. That topic no longer allows standard spoilers to be used.

Re: Regarding rules in-game and forum rules..

You can swear, you just can't evade the censors. If you post an image and don't censor it, wrap it in a trigger warning.

indeed.

guys this was all discussed way back when the system was created but it's whatever

so then the big one that's all too forgotten: layers of spoilers or trigger warnings do not permit other rules to be broken. The trigger reflects only language. (no flaming, nsfw imagery, etc would be allowed inside or out of a trigger tag)

If we already have a filter to turn off swearing and etc then why do we have to tag it? All are just creating reason to harass your community players; or so forth it seems to me.

You have to tag it for the people who don't turn it off.

Well then, isn't that there issue and not mine? Why should i have to be punished for someone else's problem?

That's like: I shoot my dad in the foot and then he goes to jail for attempt of murder... like really..

Right, because censoring and murder are practically the same.
