For some odd reason we have to watch our swearing on the forums. From now on, I shall personally edit any new posts with swearing. And not just with regular words. No, I shall edit them with strange and mystical runes, such as "Cute, Cuddly Kittens!" and "Sweet Porkchop Sandwiches!" You've been warned.

I can setup filters to do that automatically (I think).

And justification would be nice, but I'm assuming it's coming from on high (read: Mike, Paul, or Dr. Knight)

I stopped swearing on the forums awhile ago.... (at least i don't remember swearing here recently)

The last few times we've played CS:S in lab have sucked all the swearing from my body.

Ok, since you have to have a reasoning, here goes.

We are a club at Auburn University. These are our forums. Because these are the forums for an Auburn University club, that means that everything found here is a representation of Auburn University. These are publicly accessible, and work as our main source of communication. A lot of people read these boards. Which means anytime we swear on them, Auburn University is posting curse words. And they don't like the image. If anyone takes the time to check these forums and feels insulted, they can contact the University, or the SGA, and they're supposed to take measures against us. Read this: Get Us Disbanded.

So watch your language, got it?

These sorts of rules have always existed. However, the universities awareness of our forums has not.

Note: For the sake of Gouji to prevent arthritis I'll censor my own post.

This is [cudely kittens] retarded!

Nothing like people who curse and swear and 'sin' just like everyone else telling everyone else what to do. All we are doing is making harmless comments. Mean while they have no [puppies] problem letting greeks drink themselves to death and rape the sorority girls who won't just put out for them anyway. Nothing brings good ol' boys together like roofies, huh?

This whole [puppies] [pixie dust] [flowers] and [clown] beurocracy [pee pees] me off!

If someone feels like modding this then fine, just make sure that my point still gets across because its important to know how [clouds!] I am about this!

Has the world ever made sense (especially university).

I mean, universities are supposed to be learning institutions. But "surprise surprise!" it's all about memorizing crap that you will never use and sucking up to professors.

Next thing you know, they will want us to stop playing the games we like because the university hates violence.

Why are they just now paying attention to us anyway? I thought they liked pretending we didn't exist.

i dont buy the theory that the university is just know getting to know about the forumz, hell we have a representative at the uni, his name is dr. knight and im sure he knows the forums exist, as well as going back to what ack was saying; we are part of the uni therefore we represent what ideals the uni promotes and in turn we[the uni] know about the fourms existence.

Confused
