Hmmm a Q for U

Postby Kaedos » Sun Feb 26, 2012 11:15 pm

So I read the guidelines and rules to follow etc, but I found nothing about swear words... :nono: Is it alright to use dirty music choices? or is it strict to be clean? (no swearing). Thanks :D

Yea that should be fine. The rules mostly restrict porn/hentai or anything extremely violent.

If there is an occasional F-bomb, it's kinda okay, though censoring it could be better. If there's a LOT of swearing and vulgarity, censoring is likely in place...

I can't say for sure, I'm not part of the administration, but since this is a primarily English speaking site, foreign curse words aren't specifically included. At least that's how I would look at it.

Not too big of an issue, but it would be better to keep it to a minimum whenever possible, that's about it.

I've never really seen that sentiment expressed in policy... ever.

Yeah, it is not stated in the upload page because it is not a strictly enforced thing. It was more of "if there is a choice, it would be better to cut down on them" thing, rather than "you cannot have 'em at all." Though I thought there was mentioned something about heavy cursing somewhere, but that could have been my mind playing tricks on me.

It is standard generally at contests to require censoring of music due to all ages, so that may be where the thought is coming from. Though I too seem to remember at some point about a small suggestion about language on the upload page. I haven't honestly read it in about 9 years so not sure if it's changed :oops:

Theres a whispered line in magi borderline (@ 2:56) I wanted to emphasize more than I did thinking "no-ones ever going to know what it means!" but I changed it just in case (but still noted it)
he says
Spoiler :
"Chupa minha pica pichu / Chupa minha pica pinto" which is some form of "suck my dick"

The only thing that carried over was that one scene of kyoko
"Uhmmm... You know... it was at that point that I realized that maybe Thierry wasn't actually a film maker, and he was maybe just someone with mental problems who happened to have a camera. " -Banksy
