Any chance of a chat feature?
EDIT: Sorry it's a short and blunt post without my usual bollocks making it look clever but I am too tired so **** it.
EDIT 2: Oh, I can't say ****?

Really?
Testing with the famous 7-dirty words.
The original seven words are: **** **** **** **** **** Motherfucker **** In his comedy special Carlin commented that at one point, a man asked him to remove motherfucker because, as a derivative of ****, it constituted a duplication.[

The blockage of words like **** and **** seem to be a result of the sotware inherent in the forum, and not anything the Admins have set up.
Interesting. Cause it wasn't always this way.

Sometimes, stealing candy from babies is the only way to find good candy.

I think I should edit the title of this thread to "A discussion of saying **** in the forum" and asking an admin to move it to off topic.

This topic is fu cking sh ite. As for the chat feature, you could use the Shoutbox... that's basically what it's supposed to be, a site-wide chatbox for people to post random crap in.

Oh, I don't know... This thread seems to have most of the shi te... The swear filter was implemented outside our control, due to the licensing nature of the free forum software. To remove it you have to subscribe to a package to remove both the filter and the ads. You can then also add a banner/footer and all that guff.

Can we export stuff out of here? I'm tempted to just throw some free software up on one of my servers...

There should be the option to backup the forum database in the admin panel, which could then be loaded into a seperate SMF build: http://www.simplemachines.org/ hosted on a different server, with all the posts and login details preserved. Forum software we're currently running is all open-source so it really is just the hosting that we need, actually moving the data should be easy. A domain name would be kinda nice too, ideally manticfanatics.com. It would not cost a lot.
