they probably dont, but i think its automatically set so that any word that can be used as a swear word or insult is blocked

do you not find it strange how they pick and choose which words are acceptable and which arent though?

no, because generally they're called 'swear words'. it's a swearing filter. c'monnnnnn does it really matter?!

calm down mate. i was just saying that uits interesting how some 'swear words' are allowed and some 'swear words are'. what is going through the person who chooses which words to filter outs mind when s/he decides which words are acceptable?
for example, i can tell someone to piss off, but i cant say im going out for a f*g. i think we all know which is more offensive.

yeh the word f*g is more offensive, theyre not going to know which way youre using that word, so its obviously going to be filtered all the time
now how about we stop talking about the filter yeh? its on and its staying that way

i assume the website used for thsi forum must be american. amercians are ridiculous.
you might have heard of a british band called 'we smoke f*gs' who get hate mail all the time from ignorant americans telling them they are homophobic for having a name like 'we smoke f*gs' because they think it means burning gays, when it actually quite literally means they smoke cigarettes.
