I specifically wrote "Fracking faggots brandish giant money dick at UK; pushes it in dry." Not this mild "The UK fracking sucks." Your headline change sucks. The next time you do that, you might as well just delete the whole fucking thing and save me the trouble of having to call you out.
I'm not sure who made the change, but they did the right thing. I understand the rage you feel from having your awesome and edgy thread title changed into something tamer, but that's the way it's gotta be. The thread titles are posted to Twitter, which is part of the reason why they require approval before being posted. The biggest problem word in your thread title was "faggot". Twitter users are a fragile bunch and ED isn't particularly well-received by some folk. People will hit the report button just to get us in trouble. It's against Twitter rules to post stuff containing slurs, which is why we have to change thread titles in the News area sometimes. Your thread title would've been unchanged had you posted it in a different area of the site. News is the only area where we have to keep the titles under control.
Srs? I remember that I once made a news thread with swearing and nobody said anything. I think it had the word "nigger" somewhere in there or some such.
lol ya someone probably got a talking to for approving it. Depending on how recent it was, I may remember the thread in question.
@turbogook (i swear i won't ever type your full name out except when tagging, tb. get vaccinated.) I made one about ISIS; the title evidently had too much low-key satire. "ISIS beheads journalist in act of well-measured reason" or something like that. The story wasn't up, it was deleted. Too laudatory or something. I think my one of Danielle Watts also was toned down. Breaks of the game son.
