Question on Cussing “Feature”

[Podman]

So, I recently saw someone mention (I don’t remember exactly who) that the site will automatically replace certain words with Cosmere alternatives. Is this real, and if so I so badly want to run some tests. 

[Chaos he/him]

I'll allow it, so long as if you note holes you edit them out and let some staff or I know

[Chaos he/him]

You can test in a PM, too, if you're worried.

[Podman]

Yes!  

This is going to be fun...

 

The best part is I used to assume that everyone is just really into using Sanderson themed words! I mean, I know that loads actually are, but still. It’s just hilarious to me for some reason!

This is incredible, how did I not know this. I am also willing to let @podman36 cuss at me in PMs.

This sentence feels wrong somehow.

Did this inspire David's profanity filter in the reckoners series? Because that would be didgeredooing awesome

I would also absolutely be up for @podman36 cussing at me 

[Nohadon he/him]

Yeah that would be awesome! give it a shot in PMs first.

The profanity filter came as a huge shock to me, and made me legitimately blush as I was one of those people who rusting loves to use Sanderson themed words.

Exactly. 

[Kaymyth she/her]

Note that in PMs, the filter doesn't kick in on what goes out to your email; you need to read the PM on the site to see what gets filtered.

(Don't ask me how I know this.)

I too have also noticed this.

[MacThorstenson he/him]

Could I also be added to the PM?

[MonsterMetroid]

Since I don't cuss I had no idea this existed... makes me wish I could just press a button in the toobar and have it insert one haha

[Zelly]

Puzzle Pirates did the same thing in game by replacing swears with pirate slang.  Love it! (I'm testing it!)

 

Storm this rust!  Damnation!

Ha!  So there's one if you write it corrects to "[I use really dirty language and should be ashamed of myself] "

Also "cremhole" sounds equally terrible as the real word. 

Also the best way to see without potential naughty posting is to hit the "Preview" button.

Any idea yet which words are banned? I don't have the will-power to write out all of the swear-words I know. B*stard isn't edited, as far as I know, though it would be funny for the filter to cause "You Illegitimate child, Shalladin is the best ship by far!!!!!" to pop up on a discussion forum.

Clarifying.

Curiosity killed the cat... I just spent several minutes typing in cuss words in order to discover what they became. I'm glad no one else saw my computer screen, or it would have been a detention for sure.

Also, here's some holes:

Jack[wild donkey] and [offspring of adulterous relationship] are not filtered. Neither is [home of demons], [awful nickname for Richard], or [awful nickname for Richard]head.

 

[Lord Meeker he/him]

Where do I apply this? I reeeeeealy want it and have heard mention of this.

I cant believe it's an actual storming thing

Jackdonkey and Richard are holes that probably need to be corrected. I suggest "cremling" and "Straff Venture", respectively.

Illegitimate child probably should stay because there's non-swearing uses for the word, and home of demons definitely does because it's in the full title of Shadows for Silence.

[Leyrann]

I suppose the f-word becomes storming?
