Censoring "gtfo"

[Electrix]

Hey!

I have seen the term "gtfo" be used many times, and it becomes abusive. I propose we censor the term like we do other curse/swear/bad words. This would hopefully mean less hurt feelings and overall a more clean community.

Pros:
-no avoiding the swear filter
-less people getting angry
Cons:
-it would still appear as something like "#@%!"

What do you think?

I think its a good idea, just like they have to censor eZ...

The argument with "eZ" is that technically it's not swearing, therefore it would be harder to get that "law" passed. I support banning those kinds of words, but first we need to take out the most logical ones to ban.

I think most people will get more mad over people saying ez than gtfo tho

But then the staff wouldn't be able to use "/gtfo" to kick players ;-;

Problems withe censoring "eZ"

1. What about words with 'ez' in them? They would come out censored, like the word "reputation" does due to the fact that there is a Spanish curse word in it.
2. eZ in itself is not necessarily a thing that should be bannable for something as serious as abuse. It's a whole nother story if the person says something like "ez gg10 get rekt u suk", but just "ez" in itself is different.

Overall, I think that it's dumb and pointless to say "ez" in chat, but it'll only cause other problems

no-no. No more arguments about "ez"

I'm already bored of those. lol.

Oh, um. Well, you see. GTFO is just slang. It's just casual. You can take it disrespectfully or not, but its just something casual. It's not like anyone needs to amend for saying "GTFO" and a ban is certainly not a way of amending anything.

Sure, it's slang, but due to the fact that it contains a curse word, it should not be allowed on MCGamer. Same with "stfu."
