Uh oh! Some rules...
For a forum for us all to be equal I have made it so somebody can't sign up with a name like: "Sosai", "O'Sensei", "Kancho", "Kaicho", "Kudan", "Judan", "God Hand", and more.
If you're a rokudan, sandan, yondan, or whatever rank you have that doesn't mean I don't respect the years of blood and sweat you have put in to get to where you are.
On another note, if any of you have any suggestions please let Senshido, MilkmanX, or even myself know. We hope to be adding one more Mod on here soon if they agree. I think we'll be good on the admin/mod front for a while but have plans of adding at least one other once things "pick up" on here.
With all of this being said how do YOU feel about not being allowed to have shodan-judan in your forum name, sensei, shihan, senpai, kancho, kaicho? Changes can be made and I don't want to have a setting on here that most of you will disagree with. I personally think a Man or Woman puts their jeans on the same way, one leg at a time so it doesn't bother me either way.
Osu!

"No rank in the pub" served us well at work and I think it will work here. Titles are unneccessary outside the dojo IMO. (As long as I can keep Grand Poobah to remind myself not to get on my high horse)

On a rule front, are we allowed to insinuate swear words by using, say the 1st and last letters and filling the blanks with *#¿* etc? Aw, that's no fun. Can't we have the full swear? ;D On another forum I am on there is an automatic filter that will star out any swear words, if you go into the settings and turn it off you get the full sweary glory. |

I was having a wee gander in the mod functions and we can add words to a list to ban them... not sure how it replaces those words though... yet!!  |

I've been amazed on other forums when I've typed something like 'damn and blast' and it's been autodeleted.

One at work. Funny story there. They put computers on station, with full internet access, but couldn't afford to train everyone so they said, "Play around on them, use them for what you want"
I bet they thought we'd all get penfriends in Africa or make Christmas cards, but of course we hit the porn - big style.
They were 'horrified' and 'disappointed' when this came to light, and went to XXX parental controls. Everything you typed was autocorrected until you could hardly string sentences together.
You have to laugh really.

The insinuation for a swear word is fine, ideally we keep the swearing within the bar area, there has been a filter set up anyway, so if you type the full word it will replace most of it with stars... test: S*** yep, works fine  |
