Default Proclamations/shout box - 07-21-2005, 13:09

The shout box is for anyone to make announcements to everyone or someone in particular, not sure if it's any good and if we'll keep it or not, or what we are going to call it exactly if we do. I renamed it Poclamations because I thought shout box sounded rubbish, please suggest any better names though or say if Shout Box is better.

Also, seeing as there's not too much use for it at the moment other than announcing new threads like this one, please feel free to mess around with it. As long as you are logged in all you have to do is type your message where is says 'message' and hit proclaim.

I quite like 'shout box'.

I just used it to shout about my monkey punching madskillz :roll:

I do like it as a function though.


That would also be... CONDENSATION.

I'd be very afraid of you if I were a monkey!

I like the shoutbox too. What better way to tell someone their PM inbox is full?

I can't believe my inbox is finally full; to paraphrase Mister Pratchett, I always thought that was something that happened to other people.

Is it just me, or does the shout box change the word ass to butt?

Just tested it.
It seems that it will censure Ass, but not fuck, shit, bitch, bastard, or whore.

HAH! That's like George Carlin's "7 words you can't say on TV".

(does it censure "arse"?)


Friends don't let friends take up scrapbooking!

It censures neither, but it censors both.
