puellapaschalis Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 (edited) @dUSt Please remove the fiddlers fil.ters. I find them annoying in most parts of the forum, and in the more serious contexts like a deeper discussion or the prayer board it's distracting and inappropriate. Edited September 15, 2015 by puellapaschalis Fil.ter took out the word fil.ter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nihil Obstat Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 I thought I was consistently making typos! You are. But the filter gets some of it too. Puella, it is not too difficult to bypass the filters in more serious threads. Annoying yes, but not difficult.Just highlight one letter in the word that is going to be filtered - preferably the smallest letter - and then change just that one letter to black instead of automatic.I have found that to be the least intrusive method to bypass.

veritasluxmea Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 In open mike at least, I think the fiddlers add some phatmass charm to the place. I'm always surprised at what changes and what doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggyie Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I thought it was mostly just swear words that were filtered? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amppax Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Personally, I think it adds character. However, if possible, it would be good to turn it off on the prayer board and transmundane lane. Maybe even VS too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IgnatiusofLoyola Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 I don't mind the fiddlers--I don't even notice them anymore. I think they give Phatmass a unique character. We used to have more fiddlers. I particularly miss the one for taco. Once in awhile, we would have even MORE fiddlers. I still fondly remember the time we celebrated National Pirate day. After a person has been on Phatmass for awhile, you know what the fiddlers are, and either use alternate words or use one of the many ways around them. To me, it's no big deal. Then there was the time that multiple members of Phatmass all had Star Trek avatars. No one wanted to be the ensign(?) with the red shirt, because (apparently) the young guy in the red shirt is always the first one killed. (Sorry, I am sadly ignorant of Star Trek. Probably my non-Catholic upbringing.) Sometimes I think we are too serious on Phatmass nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puellapaschalis Posted September 16, 2015 Author Share Posted September 16, 2015 Ok kiddies *patpat* sigh (This post - and thread - brought to you by long workdays and an apparently unpopular inclination to be able to engage in and follow conversations without having to translate from Phatmass patois. Surely fun can be had without ruining the reading experience for some...oh no wait, there's just been a big Drama™ about that. Carry on)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
