Profanity filter gone wrong?

[Dood]

lol

[Waldo]

So we're keeping the annoying cockney slang then?

*adopts holy than thou ivory tower viewpoint* For as long as those who are unable to keep their language in check persist lol!!

Dood, I think waldo ment are we keeping the cockney slang and not going for the ******** out method - which is arguably more attractive and less intrusive.

I read it as 'are we keeping the swear filter?' and made light of the question, but I see that Waldo could have meant 'opposed to the *** filter' instead.

Actually, I do prefer the **** thing too.. well, actually I prefer people to swear their heads off unchecked, so I can edit their posts and slap a great big warning on them, so they can't post any new messages Mwah ha ha ha ha!


*note to self.. less coffee Dan!!! **

There's very few people who I can see that swear regularly, but when people do I find the Cockney rhyming thing more irritating and offensive than the original words. just ****ing the BBC's top 20 swear words but be far simpler and better surely?

Edit: The [push in the truck] one irritates me particularly - it's used as an expletive (to emphasise something), but the filter turns it in to a graphic example - totally the wrong way to do it!
