Forum rules:
2. Posts may not contain unnecessary profanity, be sexually explicit, or be in such poor taste as to offend even a truck driver. Automatic censoring will pick up the most offensive swear words and replace them with asterisks.
You, however, are not allowed to space out swear words, replace one character in a swear word with an asterisk, or use any alternative spelling to avoid the auto-censor.
In a nutshell, if I or any other moderator interpret any spelling or inclusion of asterisks to get around this rule, the post will be deleted, repeated abuse of the forum will result further action, and in worst case scenario, removal from the forum. We moderators give up our time voluntarily to help the forum run in a smooth manner, following a few simple rules is surely not asking too much?
