Wait until you read about the consbreastution...
e.g. http://askville.amazon.com/United-St...estId=14152453
).Reminds me of years ago when a mate and I attempted to wind up our Exchange Server admin, an unfriendly bastard (that one made it through!
) by discussing our weekend trip to Sc*nthorpe.

Please don't. I for one do not buy rotoflex's nanny state argument. For all the reasons that Estel and w00t mentioned plus one: have you noticed how little swearing (including asterisks) is actually present in TMO posts?

Making the swear filters even more severe will simply cripple commonly used out-of-context/ meaning interpreted words...thereby simply making writing here a frustrating pain. It will not limit the rude.
And 99.9% of the community doesn't need that kind of policing.
Forums such as "Billy-Joe-Ray-Bob-Jr.'s House-Of-Monster-Trucks-&-M16-Personal-Daycare-Defence-&-Topless-BBQ-Beer-Parlour" site...have more of a need than us for fanatic profanity filtering.

Well, let's make the swear filter yet more stricter: replace any character by a '*'
