Full Version: Last.fm And Bad Language

As I looked at my Last.FM recently played tracks, I remembered a question I've been needing to ask. It's established that if you are going to post a picture or link with bad language, you should add a warning before someone clicks to see it. With the Last.FM blog addon, anyone who stops by my blog will see the last five songs I played. Usually this is harmless because few songs have bad language in the title. But there are some songs I'll listen to such as "Too Drunk To (F)" or "Queen (B)" that will appear in my recent tracks. This could be pushed off the list after listening to five songs after it, but sometimes it could remain on the list for awhile.

What should be the ruling on this? Should it be against the rules for my recent tracks to occassionally show an F-bomb, or is this something rare enough for the mods to let it slide?

Its a content block on the blog. You can't as far as I know.

For some reason spoilers don't work on blogs, but it really shouldn't be too bad of a problem.

Oh, I thought it was for a signature. pfft.gif

Maybe add a content block above it saying the one below it has language in it?

Better safe than sorry. biggrin.gif

Well, what I'm not sure about is that it will rarely have bad language in it. I have about 4,000 songs on my iTunes twenty or less have bad words in the title. I'm just not sure how this will work with it being a rare but occuring event.

If someone reports it they'll probably make you disable it. Doubt they'll warn you or anything. Not that big a deal.

Unlike inappropriate posts and images on the forum, it's not like you could stop the name of the song from showing up. Also, in most cases the song will disappear from the content block after about four songs. So because of this, I personally wouldn't care or mind if I saw a bad word in the name of a song.
