I was surprised to see the text ...."ends on f***ing slab" show up on a photo on the front page. While I, and I'm sure alot of people, use the word on occasion I think it is not the image that needs to be presented on front page photos. Call me a prude or whatever it should have been edited before it was approved.

The photo in question was submitted by frissendirk and linked to the Orpierre region.

Prude

Wanna have some real fun, put up a jackass post on world climbing news. It appears in full text on the front page.

Now the mods are going to be mad at me again.

Yes, you are probably right. :shock:

I'm not familiar enough with the filtering mechanism and how that works on Photo descriptions but I m kind of surprised and I dont think it is too prudish to prevent the Eff Bomb from spraying all over the FP.

I ll look into it but it will probably have to wait for Tim to get back before anything actually is in place. Thanks for the heads up! rock on

I edited the picture description to read...
In reply to:
...ends on an 'effin slab...

This should solve the problem. When we approve pictures, sometimes the full description is not read, or different editors have different sensitivities, so this can happen sometimes. :roll:

At the risk of being called a "ruthless censor", I edited the description to something a little more PG then PG-13...OK with everyone?

If you try hard at climbing you probably use that word more than just a little. Besides it might be a fakeing slab or something.
