*Charline growls*  Someohow, someone modified my post to say 'jews' instead of 'hiyouman'.  Since I logout every time and have told no one my password, I must assume that this forum is not at all secure.  Thankfully, that password is only used for forums. 

And it wasn't at all amusing.  Now I know there's an anti-semite Nazi/Islamo-fascist someone around here who's hacking people's passwords... I shall exterminate this twit with great pleasure.   :kruger

EDIT: And now this post has been altered even after I changed my password.  I'm not Jewish, but I have several good friends who are.  This had better stop very soon.  I am getting quite annoyed.

More likely it's a script in the forum your tipping,  similer to the Jack boarsd Matt script

everytime some one types a post that contains the name Matt it gets posted as Dolphin****er instead  only with out anything blocking your veiw of the words. 

some other forums use similer things to filter out bad language
Title: Re: 8/11/06 Racism is bad mkay....
Post by: Alondro on August 11, 2006, 02:51:47 PM
We shall see... I shall type 'jews' and then 'hiyouman' and we shall see if only the one changes.


EDIT:  Ah-ha.  I see, but that is quite innappropriate.  I'm quite certain there'd be an uproar if it were changed to 'Muslims' or 'gaywads'.  The dolphin f'''''' is different because that's not targeting any group in particular.   Plus, with all the hate speech being spewed in Iran and other countries at this time, don't you all think it's more than just a little ignorant to include such a thing in the scripting?

Eh, so you got tricked by a forum script. You're only human.

Racism is annoying -- it's a bad idea to express it, but it's an emotion so you can't really control feeling it, and often people can pick up on it even if you do your best not to act on it.

Post by: thegayhare on August 11, 2006, 03:00:40 PM
still has no Idea what the  triger word is but there is a way around a filter like this

simply break up the word

this can be done easy as putting a space or for a smoother look try this

Ma[b][/b]tt   

It comes out like this but dosent trigger the filter

Ohhh never mind that doesn't seem to work here

Racism and other prejudices that we have are natural (alright you can also call it cultural, but the fenomen is natural), they may be annoying or downright insulting but they're natural. Unless we have actual experience with several members of a community or "racial" group all our opinions concerning them can be termed prejudice or racism, some might be flattering however. As long as we have open minds and know that we do have prejudices and racist thoughts (however slight) we can better ourselves fairly easily. But maybe I should stop talking now, don't want to start ranting about such a subject.

The wordfilter was apparently set because of a post in the "Post your info" thread. If I see things correctly, the filter replaces <Gareeku-explanation-quote>"a human, just spelt stupidly"</Gareeku-explanation-quote> with "jew". Whatever. Don't see what the big deal is.

And wow, we're not even on page two of a racism thread, and Nazi Germany already made a brief appearance (even though the quote-worthy appearance was edited out again, boo hoo)! This calls for

Back during the whole changing from "draggy" to "yiffy" incident, I pointed out that an equally if not greater annoying term was the deliberate mispelling of the word human.  Since Dmoon was already in that section, he decided to go ahead and fill in another word...and since he himself is jewish, he thought it would be an interesting and funny spin to turn the whole thing into something that actually could be considered more an insult since it was likely anyone using the whole mispelled human term was using it in such a way that simply changing the word would take a creepier meaning.  I actually ran it by a few of my jewish friends and they got a chuckle from it.

(the word more or less is hy-ooman but without the bar in the middle, as thats the simplest form of that mispelling, and the word it changes to is jews.)

That said, I never liked it when people deliberatly mispell the word human. Triply so when the intent is to make the word come across as an insult or something inferior.  I hate when people mispell anything on purpose, but that particular mispelling grates my nerves something fierce.  It's offensive to me just as someone using a racial slang would be offensive to those of that race or ethnic group.  It is quite possibly the most annoying furry-slang I know of, and that is pretty high standards considering some of the inane words out there.

Though I can't help but be a bit amused that of all the times the script kicks in, its in a thread about racism being bad.  Though really the intent of the script wasn't so much meant to be a lesson in ethics so much a quick knee-jerk reaction in response to people using a word that is incredibly bleh yet seems to be ok to use by many.  It wasn't meant to ridicule anyone, and definatly not insult/offend people.  It was more or less an afterthought and it was likely a matter of time before someone tripped up the script.

But seriously, racism is bad mmkay.

Post by: Aldoun on August 11, 2006, 04:35:12 PM
Degradation of the written medium is probably a more accurate term, but all languages evolve over time and believing that nothing in the way of slang would appear on the internet after its civilian release would have been foolhardy in the extreme. While I too appreciate effort made to use proper spelling and grammar I know that slang terms will be around and so will poor spelling/grammar, not all who use the net can be english teachers after all.

Well, now that the script has been tripped  :mwaha I am going to make the formal announcement that "hy-ooman" and it's spelling variations will be considered to be in violation of rule 1, and will result in warnings and bans like the other no-no words.

I'm currently far more on the look-out for anything that seems anti-semitic, given the current situations in the Mid-east and the growing anti-Jewish sentiments around the world.  The rhetoric is too dangerously identical to 1938 Germany for my liking, and thusly, when a word I use to jokingly mock my human character-self is suddenly changed to 'jews', I couldn't help but find it very disturbing.  Had it happened a year ago, I would have been more likely to think it was a joke or a scripting trigger, which I haven't come across very much, since most of the forums I go to are professional and actually forbid such things.  In fact, in most of them that very thing would get someone banned!  So you can see I'm rather sensitive to it.

Sorry all, I'm simply on high alert status these days for anything suspicious.

I am definitely a "racist" when it comes to cat furries. I think if over, say, 40% of your characters are cats (including your own fursonna) it's extremely blase and I think it shows unoriginality on your part. I mean seriously, there is a huge number of animal species out there, and yet every girl and her mom chooses feline furries to draw. And not even so much cool supspecies like lion, tiger, bobcat, panter (that would be cool), lepard, etc etc, but housecats.

I'll admit I have seen some very cool cat designs (Abel, for instance). But most of them look almost interchangable to me. I don't mean to offend anyone, it's just my personal thing I guess. It may stem from my immense hatred of Inuyasha, I don't know.

But they so look like cat ears!!! And he's got those teeth and nails so I still say he looks waaay more catlike. But I suppose you might have a point... maybe =P But even so he'll always just be a generic bishonen to me.

And yeah, it's just my opinion. I'm sure a lot of people here dislike the shows I like, and I wouldn't mind if they said so at all. If someone gets to the point where they're offended over someone saying they hate their favorite show... well, that's a little obsessive. Now if I said everyone who watches Inuyasha is a retarded nerd who needs a life, then I'd totally see why you'd get mad at me... but I don't believe that at all. I just don't like the show truthfully and I think the character design is really generic (white haired bishies? Pfft).

And I don't mind cat furries THAT much, it just gets kind of old... it'd be nice seeing a little variety. Again, just my opinion though.
