Just curious, I’ve been seeing a lot of random kitten references pop up in the forums. Is that just the friendly neighborhood moderator using kittens to replace less fun and furry words on the forums? Or maybe an inbuilt censor with a fondness for felines?
Or is everyone just really into kittens lately?
For example from other posts I just read:
“Tell him to kitten” and “Learn to play kitten.”
Unless kitten is a new action of some sort? Like planking?
I thought it was kind of weird that people were referring to each other with kitten, too. It actually comes off sounding rather piratey to me.
Anyone know for sure? Am I just completely missing some new internet trend? O.O
From what I can tell, the word “kitten” is used to replace inappropriate words.
OH!
I though it was a word people used for describing a class as weak…
Like: “The ranger got kittened”…
Kittens for weak? Pah, kittens are IMBA!
LOL yeah the kitten thing confused me at first too back in the 2nd BWE. Its just a filter. The word kitten was chosen because it kinda takes the heat off of any insult you can possibly sling at someone. Hard to have a legit flame war with everyone yelling “kitten”
kittenety kitten kitten kitten?
HAHAHAHAA …sorry, just had to test it. That is BRILLIANT. and Hilarious, I approve.
Best filter ever!
LOL I had no idea they did this. That is so clever, ArenaNet!
Just when I think y’all have raised the bar enough, you guys still seem to surprise me with more amazing additions.
Yeah, it threw me off at first. I wasn’t sure if it was automatic or if someone was going into threads and changing them to spontaneously chosen cute words.
That’s kitten brilliant!
Kitten is also kinda sexist. Is/was a sexist reference toward women.
I’ve actually taken to writing kitten in my posts instead of swearing, because it makes me giggle.
For example, most people who starts threads need to be told to calm the kitten down and shut the kitten up.
