Why Does BG Wiki Have Admin-protected Slurs?

Why does BG wiki have admin-protected slurs?
Weird, I said retard in that post originally then edited it because the filter didn't kick in. Is there some special condition for it? Edit again, must just be with -ed HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE

The filter takes like 2 minutes to replace the word. I saw Thorny's post with the proper word written in, refreshed and it was gone.

<I did not in fact write that.> Gotta say this is actually in the true BG spirit, ironic or not. People used to get more satisfaction denying others progress or enjoyment (HNM claims, Gimp/Confused/WTF thread, etc.) than for anything they accomplished.
So as much as things change, they stay the same.

Edit again, must just be with -ed re-tarded lmao, you're so HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE Funny, because if you quote someone, you see what they originally posted. Same with "facts I don't like" (Fak.e New.s) Lakshmi.Buukki said: » Asura.Clintbeastwood said: » Shiva.Thorny said: » Asura.Clintbeastwood said: » Oh it's still in effect, please see my post above.

Same with "facts I don't like" (Fak.e New.s) So you can see, I never said the bad word! "HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE" is the new slur. By the way, there are 3 basic ways to see these words:
1:They are blasphemy, and uttering them is a crime against humanity. Often the people who get mad at them are not even the target of them used hatefully, they are just mad at the use of the words at all. 2:Used against random people, friends, pets, inanimate objects. 3:Going upto people and using them hatefully against them, intentionally targeted. People from 1 often conflate the use of 2 and 3 together as the same, they are not the same at all. There is a massive difference between 2 and 3. Just cause you think they are the same or you're sensitive, doesn't mean you get to force everyone else to comply with your beliefs.

What you're describing is intent, and the people that rage about said words lack the critical thought process to make the distinction between them. I think there's a word for that....

Removing these would be literally HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE.

Anyways, until we get confirmation that those will never be edited off bgwiki and that the admins will keep them for all time, I will be blocking LightningHelix. I cannot deal with someone that is so immature that they cannot deal with the world as it is and I feel I should tell you all this so that it is somehow your problem too.

Now I want someone to modify it to make it say HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE instead. I also used a set of pressure gauges wrong the other day and sent the low pressure gauge too high. The upper limit of 150-300psi says it too. I almost made a meme about it being offensive but didn't. I love shitposting

OP woulda never survived the MW2 lobby chat.

Intention matters behind words. This is what we have lost in all this censorship.
Are you intending to hurt someone? Is it in the context of history or a joke/meme?
[+]
Hya joked about it but it's true.
If a highly religious person came in and was offended at OP using the lords name in vein, they would laugh and do it more or just ignore them. So this outrage is purely based on the words they personally don't like, and not about hurting peoples feelings.

The word "patrons" in some languages means the same as "pimp" as in keeper of hoes, and not the garden tool kind.
In English, it means "person that frequents an establishment" or "customer". I love calling people patrons just to mess with them.  At least 3 GPUs died for this shitpost

hold up hold up hold up hold up
Last I checked, societal norms dictate that if you are of said class, it is societally acceptable to use said class slurs. Black people can call each other N words, gays can use the F word, etc etc. Now, if these pages were made by Spicy, then it stands to reason that no societal guidelines have been broken, as a member of said societal class, Spicy is permitted to use said slurs. Before anyone gets mad at me, I didnt make these rules.

Roll the disclaimer and move on
 You could spend the same amount of energy, complaining, instead do something helpful.

Devil's advocate: Are static products of their time like a cartoon the same as a website that makes fun of being offended at what most would consider slurs today?
Personally, I'd rather see someone put on trial for their logic rather than their word choice.
Oh back in DEC 2025 this person used "the" or a "bad pronoun" blacklist them. The more you spend time being critical of the past, the less time you are spending moving forward. everyone is so triggered at the mere suggestion that these pages be removed. you’re not even defending funny pages here y’all! go look at them! why do you care so much about their continued existence? i promise you there’s worse things out there than some people wanting a wiki cleaned up of old garbage.

I've had people tell me that I shouldn't use the word dumb and instead use stupid. Dumb is a slur that was used to insult people that were deaf/blind/mute.
Does dumb also get censored? |
