Bluebottle Started conversation Jun 3, 2013
I seem to have been promoted - official title Chief Scout, but with it comes Guide Editor status.

Ooh, you're really powerful now. You can do things like award badges, edit posts and update the profanity filter

Oooh, they've fixed the update profanity filter bug?? That *is* exciting! 
(I need to get out more.)

I remember the time I managed to slip the word "gnomon" into the filter. Happy days...

Oh dear... I guess they* didn't tell you the true responsibilities and dutys you'll now be contractually obliged to deal with? 
There's a profanity filter?!

I feel under pressure now - how can I possibly top adding 'Gnomon' to the profanity filter?
I'm still not entirely sure how it all happened - I'd generally assumed that only people who've been sub-editors get to be guide editors.

Just don't add 'badger' or 'nighthoover' to the profanity filter... please

I've not even had a look at the profanity filter yet - you can tell what we all think about

Wow!
They let you press buttons too?
*looks at all the new shiny buttons BB has*

Bluebottle Posted Jun 5, 2013
I've been given lots of buttons - I'm just waiting until no-one's looking before I start pressing them

"Ooh, you're really powerful now. You can do things like award badges, edit posts and update the profanity filter"
Yeah, because I've got around to fixing the filther amongst all the other stuff I'm doing
No, the filther is not fixed, no BB can't update it (no-one can). Only Mods can do stuff like edit posts, and Ops award badges. As for being really powerful, well we all know that BB is a total star, and stars are massive nuclear reactors in the heavens, so that's pretty powerful
