Yeah, you heard it here first. You can't say "fart" in the in game chat.

Can someone please tell me what kind of person is offended by the word "fart"? I tried to explain to someone after a minor server outage last night that the "server farted" but instead I got "server ****" which just made it look like I was saying something really nasty. I just can't comprehend how someone had the idea, "Yeah. 'fart' is pretty offensive and crude to say, we can't allow people to use that word." Consequently the forums don't filter it whatsoever.

Do you guys think this is reasonable? Am I making too big a deal out of this? Think it's funny (I do)? Let me know.

I heard that someone died from a fart.

Maybe it's a touchy subject for some people.

IIRC you can disable the chat filter somewhere in the settings when you're ready to hear all the cool kids swear all the time because that's what cool kids seem to do nowadays.

Well, now I'm brain dead from lack of oxygen.

 

Excuse me while I relieve myself.

That's a noun and not a verb.

 

It's chat, the home of broken English and things that make less than negative sense.  Nobody'll be any wiser so long as you don't spread the word.

 

Also, seeing as it is a noun that ends in us... like a cactus.......  Does that mean that multiple farts are indeed a flati?  Which leads me to a new idea, just start using cactus as a verb.  Maybe it'll catch on.

I have no idea why I find this funny. Pretty sure later this evening while on shift I'm going to randomly think of this thread and start laughing.

 

Coworkers and Customers are going to think I'm not all there because I'm holding back giggles, because my brain decided to think of a thread regarding the fact that the word "fart" is in the swear filter.

You're welcome for the chuckle.

I've seen how they type.

 

They don't use the word Fart. They use words like "rape" "%&^" and "your mother."

Please! NO! Do not subjugate me to the evil ways of COD gamers! PLEASE!
