I mean, yeah the topic of you guys does come up every now and then, not gonna deny that.

But less than 200 posts over the course of a couple years isn't that crazy
Hypocrite much? 7 threads isn't all that different by comparison.

so like ~150 or so sporadic posts in random threads vs. like 800 posts

I know it's just semantics at this point, but come on

This was quite a read. I forgot Sapphire even existed until I saw Jay posting something on Twitter. From what I gather from this thread, she's not even in it anymore?

That is correct, she's been gone for like a couple years now, and we are much better off without her

dont do it too much, i know a guy who went completely off the rails after devoting his life to that stuff for a few months.

Had a friend in highschool that lived off of that shit and mojo.

Not a good combination

He made it apparent that his only intent was to troll, which like I stated earlier, will get you banned.

The fact that he came here and bragged about his ban only proves that point

Wow Irish, enjoy your perma. I literally can't even

An obscure off topic discussion forum that was formerly hosted on a video game developers website doesn't allow a few bad words!

This angers me so much to the point that I must type out a multi paragraph response!

It's not a profanity filter, it's a slur filter.

If you feel the need to constantly use slurs because freeze peach or some non sense, then fair warning Sapphire probably isn't the place for you
There are several practical instances where using a slur unfiltered would make having certain conversations about certain subjects run a lot smoother.

Given the context, our minds will be able to fill in the blanks anyway, so having a filter doesn't actually filter out the word at all. The only effect it produces is making the website look like it's comprised of small, overly-sensitive children.

We manage to have conversations on several sensitive subjects without using slurs

It's not that hard.

I agree with Verb on this. I'm not the type to use slurs, but having to protect the minds of your members from even reading them is pretty overkill. Especially for adults. You can't have a genuine serious conversation about anything really without the risk of offending someone. People need to be able to handle exposure to the things that upset them, even naughty words, or life is just going to be exceptionally hard.

Sapphire can do as they please, but it's pretty obvious to me that it just isn't the kind of community for me.

The thing is, we have many members that come from minority groups (people of color, gay people, trans people). They have to hear/see these slurs both in real life and in other places online, and we want to provide a place where they don't have to worry about seeing these words.

Call it censorship, call it a safe space, call it whatever you want, that's just the type of community that we are.

I should check Sapphire out again and see what it's all about. I have an account there still. I got invited to join the group back in the B.old days and left the same day I joined because of how horrible it was (apologies if anyone here takes offense to that but it really did fucking suck) which I believe landed me on some blacklist. Memories, memories.

You're welcome to join again.

The do not invite list/blacklist from the b.old days isn't really in effect anymore.
Had a look around and don't think it's for me. The ideology is extreme to the absurd (literal NK & Stalin apologetics, no thanks), the groupthink and echoing is massive without any real discussion of any substance, and it both strikes me as kind of boring (a handful of people talking for the sake of talking, even much more so than this place) and indeed not too welcoming (if not hostile) to new people. You guys do you, but I'm going to bail. Perhaps I need to stick around longer to get the full idea, but this is what it comes across as to me. If this counts as "badmouthing" deserving a ban under your policy, then feel free to do so. Account name is just "Flee".

Sapphire isn't for everyone and that's fine.

Thanks for checking us out. And no, this doesn't count as bad mouthing.
