What, I can't do that anymore?!

^^Pownage!

Seriously, I think it's probably a good thing they did away with the "neg rep". People were either abusing it or they would get into a war and just continuously neg rep eachother.

It may have been abused but if someone uses the word "fag" for example, I should be able to negative rep them.

Why, what do you have against fags?

There's still a button for that --->

Nothing. I've seen the slur used here a lot lately and I gave all the posters negative rep.

Not necessary.. Report the post, and the mods will drop the ban hammer.

Just curious-- but when you say "a lot", do mean more than 3 times in the past 30 days?

So they have to write cigarette out fully?

At least 1,000 times..... DAILY.

I'd say 3 times is a good number. Maybe "a lot" isn't really a lot. I say a lot of things but there are words I don't use. So, for any person to use that word around me it seems like a lot.

Funny story, I have one in the classifieds...

I thought the rule was, type anything you want and the filter will remove any language the mods have decided to be offensive.

I understand. I was just curious how much you're seeing it, because I haven't seen it recently and I want to make sure we're handling them.

This is why the Report Post button is so helpful, because we physically cannot read every post.

I believe that to be true but some racial and sexual orientation slurs get through.

It is. But that doesn't mean that we don't have words that still need added to the filter.
