I propose we add a profanity filter for the following words:

Buff
Nerf
OP
Fanboy
L2P
Kid
Spear
Dragonborn

Should we add these words to the censor list?

    I'd leave off Spear ('cause seriously, non-magical spears would be nice) and replace it with F2P :)

    I've got a couple you can add *** and *** !
    (oh my bad they seem to be censored already....lol)

    ;)

    Seriously though, policing the forums is good, censoring... not so good !

    vote yes, but...it comes with a rider....

    the board must not censor it with *** ect, but must use proper words to replace with. words that fit with ESO.

    so L2P could become <Im Bettar thn u> and Fanboy say... <daedric worshipper> and so on

    (im both serious and silly here. i visit a forum where they allready do that, and its fun seeing words swapped around.

    The real dilemma is that; Powdered doughnuts are overpowdered, the chocolate doughnuts are too chocolaty, and the coconut crunch doughnuts have more coconut than all other doughnuts. This is OUTRAGEOUSLY unfair to other doughnuts!

    So from now on, all you special snowflakes get is nasty plain doughnuts...enjoy!

    OP needs to L2P. That kid doesn't even know what a buff is. He probably is a nerf gun fanboy that plays with foam spears and yells at his little sister as if he were dragonborn.

    If you start a censorship, there are no really end to what someone may dislike, after my exsperince.

    What do you expect? Censorship and free speech are important matters. Maybe you weren't around when people were fighting (and dying) for such things?

    I change my mind, add more words to the censor list! It stimulates creativity. Like idiot, or ugly. Instead people would have to call each other "steaming pile of guar dung!" or "You look like something the khajit dragged in!"

    "Elitist" should be translated to "decent player".
