XD is fine the way it is. A filter would just mess up its awesomeness.

But it's supposed to be xD.
Also, anyone can see that 24h time is more logical, more handy, and has 13:37 (which makes it better). The thing that really takes the cake with am/pm is that 12am is followed by 1am. Since 12 is bigger one would like it to come later, like after 11am.

Where did you come from?

Seriously, I thought we only got rejects from Planet N00B. D:

(Okay, really... uh, I should probably go turn that filter off now, I think I've made my point.

Or maybe I should filter " lol " (spaces included) to "I AM AN IDIOT". Hmm...)

Speaking of which, there's a post in ROM Hacking about hacking "Adventures of Lolo."

You can probably figure out what the filter did to it.

"hahahahaha" (optinal number of "ha"s) works much better



Well, I sometimes use that. I usually go for 'haha' instead of the long laughter of 'hahahahahahahahahahahhaha'

Which looks like a crazy laugh Kyouji would make.

Think of it this way. The word cum is filtered to manjuice. Now, that's going to cause collateral damage, as words like cumulus, cucumber, circumstances and cumbersome are going to get messed up. Of course, that's just an example and would never actually happen, but the point remains. Filtering words that can show up in other words is going to cause problems.

cumanjuiceber actually sounds rather amusing

Or what if you want to talk about sotalol or atenolol? Maybe you want to tell someone to stop lollygagging around? Sure, it's easy to bypass with <b> </b> or <z>, but it's still incredibly annoying and pointless.

So yea, it is pointless in and of itself. If you really absolutely need to get your joke across somehow (to inform people you aren't serious) then use smilies. Not that I really like those too much either, but they at least serve a purpose in translating the tone of a user..

I disagree. It should be filtered to DX<.
