G- Rated Image of the Day Forum?

My problem is I forget where I am and if I think fuck, I will type fuck..whether it be in the IotD thread or any of the other filthy threads.

What words are unacceptable? Arse? Ass? Bloody?Hell? Fuck? Cock?

I hate censorship, its soooo subjective.

OK, for those that didn't get one;

In the IOtD thread, because it's UT's baby and the way most people come to the Cellar, I'd really like to see the language cleaned up so net nanny doesn't knock people off. A lot of people, surfing from work, have to contend with censoring software.

Not a rule, not an order, just an idea of mine I'm floating, to help keep the IOtD available to as many as possible.

I started doing this about the beginning of December.

Since the beginning of the year there has been additional attention paid to IotD from the web in general.

The number of unique visitors to Cellar and IotD in February is over 10000 per day. This is up from an average of around 7000 in November/December.

Of those 10000 visitors, I estimate that 7000 are IotD viewers and 3000 are Cellar forum viewers.

In addition, the bandwidth used for Cellar and CellarIotD is now officially insane. More and more threads with attached images become popular. I've been posting larger and more images per IotD and these IotDs are now archived and visited by more people.

The additional traffic to IotD has increased the amount they generate from the Google ads, and so IotD now earns the Cellar like $50/month which goes into the connection bill. In addition, I've put Google ads on the Cellar archives which generates an additional $15/month or so (still early on that figure).

It's not enough offset to discourage the tip mug yet - we still need the mug, especially while I'm unemployed and can't put my own money into it. But things are improving.

I also said to a couple people.

I didn't want to bring it up for discussion because I think Tony will stand on principle that he doesn't censor anyone, even though it's fucking with his income. So I've been suggesting directly, when ever it happens.

I was right there also.

I know someone who will only let her kids use curse words beginning with A or B. I suppose it makes some kind of sense to them, but I just don't see it.

Simple, she hates the C word.

That seems a lot more like performance art than it does behavior modification.

There are some real beauties in the A-B range, after all.
