Dan and I were talking about this today. A large number of h omosexual references are censored. Do you agree with this? Vote and post your opinions.

Move this to Spam man.
Keep the GD strickly comp related Evil or Very Mad <- voted.

Since 'Lesbian' isn't censored, i guess homosexual can be uncensored too.
But if possiable try and use AI and if the post is flaming someone, censor it Rolling Eyes

This is important. It will be moved after the fact.

homo. I think references like this should be uncensored when "gay" is used purely to refer to h omosexuals. (like thats ever going to happen) "I don't like apples, apples are gay" (or happiness)

Posts like that are going to start to get deleted, no questions asked.

What if I say: "Somebody is a very gay fellow. Although, there's something particularly qûeer about him that I just can't put my finger on." In reference to the fact that he's a very happy 'n easy-going fellow. But there's something strange about him?

It's all about context. Even the word "balls" can be offensive. It's just a matter of how it's used.

I fail to see why ppl would be taking about h omosexuals on a computer science forum. Unlless a new fourm was made for political debates/discucssions, but that still has nothing to do with Compsci.

I used to have a manager that was most definitely a homersexual. Then he was "forced to quit" and now we have another supposed homersexual manager. We also had a homersexual coworker that quit recently. And a fat guy too. Heh.

Er, anyways. I think that if somebody is going to use the word h-omosexual, they won't be using it offensively. You know? If somebody on a message board wants to imply that somebody else has strong feelings towards the same sex they'll say something like "omfg, you fucking geek. why can't u give me an answer, ur fucking gay"

They'll say that because they are themselves, quite gay. Fuckin' lamers.

guys - PM your little hissy fits please. I don't know nor care what thread this started with but end it. It's annoying.

Filter - YES keep the filter. I know there are problems with it but it helps send the message that we want to keep the content clean.

C'mon Templest, take it easy huh?
And there are in fact 3 girls in my class, and it just so happens that Mary has the programming skills and she also has the organizational skills that the rest of us lack.

we have a girl on our team martin... and she can program better than 90% of the ppl in the school

Author:  Mazer [ Thu Oct 21, 2004 4:22 pm ]
Post subject: 

Correct me if I'm wrong, but are there not 1500+ people at Massey? And how many people actually take computer science? Perhaps 90% isn't such a high claim, dodge.

Post subject: 

I can claim that Mary can program better than 75-85% of the ppl in my class :p, maybe its cause around 1/4 of the ppl are absolutely new to programming. I wonder why they have no pre requisite for grade 11 compsci... they slow us down... Sad

Any how, going back on topic the word has been removed and i am sory if our censoring of it has offiened any one. But since i am being nice about this word if any one uses it in a insutlting or officve way now i will be pissed.
