Where is the list of profanity words not to be used on this site I can’t find it or is the list not out for us to see? I did not want to go to all the trouble of typing something up in Microsoft word and post it here and then find out this site says it is profanity then I wasted my time typing whatever I wrote. If there is not a list yet for us to see will there be a list soon for us to look at. I'm just asking I’m not trying to start any trouble.
christine_aka_legend Yes, even if I tried to put a list it would be starred out. Plus POTUS wouldn't ever provide his launch codes right?
Furthermore, the list isn't static and things may be removed/added over time so keeping it updated could be a challenge. Simply stated, if it changes to *** then it is prohibited. I have removed some words off the standard list I was provided so that is why some words are getting through.
If you use a word that is on the prohibited list. No harm or foul if it wasn't directed at another member. Just edit and pick something more benign. Don't try to trick the filter though.
There are also a fair amount of words on the list that are derogatory racial infused. Certainly we don't support any such language that doesn't contribute to a welcoming environment for the purpose of quitting. We accept all walks of life no matter their gender, economic status, race, sexuality, nationality, employment status, etc.
Jennifer_Quit_05-01-14 parties on both sides were guilty in the discussion you speak of. Perhaps as the "Report Button" is used more consistently then the need for the naughty word list will be lessoned. This goes with the assumption that established members won't react to periodic outbursts and will report content requiring review by the EX Team. EX Team will evaluate all reports as impartially as possible for the betterment of the community as a whole. All big things grow from something small, so while issues are minimal now, they'll be dealt with rather than ignored so that periodic outburst will not become the norm here on EX.
