Our Messageboard AKA Home Of The Tumbleweeds

Did you know we have a messageboard? No? Well, we do. Truth is though, we forgot about it right after creating it which obviously has led to it being an emaciated pile of shite. However, I noticed a few places on the net linking to it, I have no idea why, so I thought I should check it out again.

After finally remembering my password, I managed to get in and make a post stating that we’re shit (but we know it) and asking if there is a market for an ausculture.com messageboard. After hitting “Post” I was greatly amused to see that ‘shit’ had been changed to ‘nuts’ in my post. The fuckers!

Being the admin thingy, I delved into see what default censorship ProBoards had and was chuckling heartily once I found the following list in my ‘default’ censored words list.

kiss my ass=I disagree
my ass=I disagree
goddamn=d—n
damn=d—n
asshole=not a very nice person
shit=nuts
shitty=crappy
shithead=meathead
fuck=f—k
fucker=f—k-r
fucking=f—k—g
motherfucker=m-th-rf—k-r
motherfucking=m-th-rf—k—g
penis=thingy
cock=thingy
dick=thingy
shlong=thingy
vagina=girl thingy
pussie=girl thingy
pussies=girl thingies
pussy=girl thingy
cunt=thingy
poonanny=poohead
poon=thingy
twat=thingy
whore=sleeper
bitch=pregnant dog
slut=very -friendly- person
faggot=f-g—t
fagget=f-g—t
fag=f-g
dike=d—e
dyke=d—e
nigger=black person

Charming!

In any case, I ask you - is there any use in an ausculture.com messageboard? Should we bother fixing up the one we have? Or should we let you guys continue your shenanigans at other proper boards like Popjustice, Lowculture and Quixotic?

PS: Obviously the censored word replacements used asterixes instead of ‘-’ but this blog thingo seems to be set to ensure an asterix results in italics (or is it bold?) being shown, rather than just an asterix. Can we have asterixes back, Patrick? Please? I promise I’ll be good!

Let's be original and not have one.

On another note, I wonder if I could copy the Quixotic design for Friday?

Also, Asterix is a comic book character :)

You can have him back, here he is.

Meh, you smarmy twat!

Asterix is just one of my adorable spelling-mistakes-I-have-no-plans-to-correct. Since writing here I have discovered I spell pavillion with two l's instead of one, and I prefer spelling definately with an 'a'.

AHEM. taps foot I'm right here Patrick... don't go stealing my site! (said to the tune of 'dont go breaking my heart) :) lol

Thanks for the pluggage by the way Jess :) No, really. Such high powered endorsement is sure to do me well!!

If you guys want boards, and want help running, maintaining, or pretty-fying your boards - I am offering a hand! Although.. if you have space on your domain/site you should really install your own forum program like moi. Ads are smelly - unless they arent.

Alternatively... Patrick could just steal my boards and tack some ausculture threads to the end of it! Im sure you two are already planning it... goes with your quest for world domination!! :)
