Heya folks.
I was a bit inspired with ideas after that bit with the fellow that brought up the child safety and all that.
I had the idea of a possible word/tag filter for Diasporians. So that the users can blacklist words that they feel are offensive and tags of their choosing that get associated with NSFW content in their profile settings.
I thought of maybe having a simple text field where one enters in the word "hell" and/or the tag #boobies and then confirms their option and let the word and/or tag get replaced with asterisks (A bit of a visual pun since the Diaspora logo IS an asterisk hehe) of equal character values.
What do you all think? I'm not really specifically thinking about children in this case but people of any age who don't want to see the "C" word in their stream.
:)

If you focus on the large projects, the small ones will never get implemented. I found this out the hard way.
But I agree with @goob and @mikemacgirvin as well :)

@mikemacgirvin : good suggestions !
@goob : You're pretty right, maybe I escaladed too quick. It sounds really good to me. This eventually is an important feature (unless it doesn't come to censorships and other craps)

Yeah, I think me mentioning that L4COF person in my original post reminded you of that frustration a bit @augier. I know what that's like! :P

Yeah, that stupid troll pissed me off all the day. Luckily, tonight (it's currently 00:49 in France) is the first day of The International DotA2 finals ! ^

Well I like the flow of ideas here. And how quickly this idea evolved. I say we implement ALL TEH THINGS!

So what do we do now?

Find someone that would be up for coding the feature?

@mikemacgirvin That sounds very much like what I'm thinking of. Thanks for sharing your experience.
