I'm sorry if these seems horribly churlish and ungracious of me

robluvsnic [Edit] [Delete] 3 replies 04:43, 22 September '09

given all the work you guys put into the site for very little return, but...

Is there really any need to censor the names of bands in news items, etc. on the main site (e.g. "In Photos: F^ck Buttons @ The Corporation, Sheffield")?

Yes, it's a silly, juvenile name; and, sure, it's only censored in the headlines (and probably only because they appear for a time on the front page). But, really, who's your audience?

Sorry, churlish and ungracious, like I said, but I just find this kind of stuff disappointing more than anything else.
