ALL POSTSVote to unblock "piss"
<p>So, it's been annoying for me, and others, to have this word blocked, because I can never say that I'm "pissed off," only "ticked off," which really doesn't cut the mustard in some cases. Of course, all inappropriate uses of the word would still not be allowed. Telling someone to "piss off" wouldn't, nor would something like "*pisses on something*". We never have discussions about peeing anyway, so I don't see when this would be an issue. So, basically, I just want this unblocked so "pissed off" can no longer be blocked. I'm sure there are other creative and appropriate uses for it as well. For instance, "piss away" means to waste one's time or resources. And I would also argue that this word is on about the same level as crap, which is unblocked.
</p><p>A - Unblock
</p><p>B - Keep blocked
</p><p>C - Neutral
</p>

<p>B) It's not worth it if it hinders any potential users or people already here from being able to stay. We need to maintain the right atmosphere for people fresh off the MBs to want to stay, and while I would use the phrase myself, I think it would detract from that.

<p>...guys, you do realise that "piss off" in Britain is pretty much a swear... 
</p><noscript>
</noscript> It's basically a slightly more polite way of f-bombing someone off.
<p>So any British kid coming on would immediately claim we allow swearing. </p><noscript></noscript>
<p>Seriously, it's bad.

<p>As in telling someone to "piss off"? I already said that that wouldn't be allowed. It would be a personal attack. Is "piss off" as in to really anger someone a swear, then?

<p>The very word "piss" in Britain is considered quite vulgar. Never ever considered as a "clean" word. You wouldn't find it used in Doctor Who, for example.
</p><p>JSYK, Gordon Ramsay tends to use it quite often as well. </p><noscript></noscript>

<p>Well, it's really not that bad in North America, which is where most of our userbase hails from. :p But I have no qualms with you opposing, as you perceive it differently.
