Couple of changes

• Osayidan wrote on 2013-04-06 17:22
  Two big changes today:
  
  1) A sub forum for foreign mabinogi content
  The purpose of this forum is for anyone who wants to post data, discuss subjects relating to foreign content, or ask questions about foreign content..
  
  Threads should be moved or closed & recreated in mabinogi talk if the content comes to NA mabinogi.
  
  If you need any currently existing threads moved to the foreign content forum report the thread requesting it be moved.
  
  2) All censors removed
  All the censors have been removed. That doesn't mean you can go around spamming up the newly available words just because you can. That would just prove to me the community isn't mature enough to handle such vocabulary.
  
  Any derogatory terms used to offend people will be dealt with at the staff's discretion.

  Let's also consider how lazy our overlord osay is.

  
  
  Seriously, I wasn't expecting any of this for another week.

  Never saw this as a good idea.
  
  The most commented and viewed threads in Mabinogi Talk section have always been future content or foreign mabinogi related. From what I've noticed, the people who come here for actual Mabinogi talk (out of which foreign/future content is most popular) hardly ever post in sub-forums or other sections of the site.
  
  Censor part I like, I prefer minding what I say than having a site do it for me.

  If the Mabinogi Talk section turns in to a desert wasteland as a result of this, we'll just merge the boards again.

  To the Iron Maiden you go. Hurry on now. The sooner we do this the faster we can put the mop away.

  Welp, I'm pretty damn disappointed, but..
  
  Hopefully certain groups on here won't stumble across those offensive words. I pray that they aren't trigger-y for some people, too.

  Remember. The censor removal is not necessarily a context removal.
  
  If you ever run across something and think "this is really rude!" then you should report it. If there is a problem, we'll deal with it.

  :D Woot i can finally post images who's urls are blocked because of the word censor. :3 The censor served almost no purpose anyways.

  Can I say "wassup nigga?" and not be infracted for it?

  We're not endorsing it, but it is indeed possible to say it without being infracted.
  
  But if you're using nigga as your introductory welcome to newcomers or dropping the word around like Hanna drops bad news, we're gonna have a long talk.
  
  The mental checklist is more or less "can I apply it to the context of my message without being irrelevant or abrasive?" Most of the time, the answer is an outright no. The removal of the censor never changed whether or not we'll be taking action on your use of the word, so be very responsible with it.

  Context is everything, guys.
  If you're like "Hey, nigga" to someone after they asked you stop calling them that I can see it as a problem as well

  Remember that just because the censor has been removed, it doesn't mean that everyone on this site is alright with it. I definitely don't recommend using the words when talking to someone you don't really know well. Be respectful towards people that take offense to those words, as they still carry a lot of weight for a lot of people.
