I am an American white male and I think the word "hello" is a racist slur toward me. Are you going to add it to your Nazi file? |

That's why I refuse to have a computer filter language in my zone. Only a human can do it with any degree of accuracy. _________________ Hyperspace Owner

Free speech only applies when it's the government trying to shut you up, not a private entity. |

No, everyone can speak their minds anywhere they want to. However there are some people who will not assume responsibility. This is also true for sysops as much as it is for players. |

Call a cop a "pig" to his face and he'll arrest you.
Spam forums and your post will be junked.

Yes, a cop might, but there is no legal precedent for it unless you're already going to be arrested anyway. |

The difference is that in the second one you express your opinion, the first one doesn't do that. _________________

In HZ we only filter out the racism. If someone is avoiding the filter then they get silenced. That way if people want to joke around with their friends and call eachother racist names, that's fine, there's no malicious intent. But if someone wants to go out of their way to call a player who has the racism filter turned on a racist name through use of special characters, that's where we draw the line.
Personally I don't see what your issue is with this, Ekted, I know you're big on freedom speech and all that, but before I implemented this rule there used to be a strict non-racism policy in HZ, and more than a couple bans for it each day. This is a perfect compromise for the people who are genuinely offended (yeah, I find it hard to believe that someone would get offended over text, but there's really no way of telling). _________________ Owner of SSCE Hockey Zone.

Ekted is big on free speech but not on open source, interesting. _________________

Free speech is what you are allowed to do. Open source is what others expect of you. Two different directions. And I am not against open source. I just don't think it is a panacea. |

Maybe in Hick towns of the 18th century like in Montana, but in California it won't fly. |

Of course you won't be able to filter everything, but for your example you could write code to replace characters, and then run a check to prevent people from trying to bypass.
But... whatever, I don't even know why I'm even visiting these forums here. |

Still in Spain, unfortunately...
¿Who do you think it is?
¡They're crazy here! ¡They don't use one question mark for questions here, but two!
And the beds are crap, I'd rather sleep on the floor.
Time to sue them for making my neck hurt.
Ah well, time to fly back home today. Adios. |
