It was very funny.

However, much as I was loathe to do it the consequences were predictable, given that he served a ban a fortnight ago for the same thing.

C'est la vie, as they say in Germany.

That just means he hasn't got a email address in his profile. Understandable really.

Here, I get new release emails and this one came in today -

"Jesus" is censored!

I know Jesus Jones music is offensive, but its the word Jesus. At least we can say that on here.

Don't try to be clever to get round the filter. Type what you want and let the filter do its job.

As someone who has been banned twice for "swear filter avoidance" (one week and three weeks each IIRC, the first time I never hit the edit button in time or even got the courtesy of a reply when I tried to explain it was a mistake) I would caution against doing that. It's exactly what I have done and on all occasions the filter has failed due to the S****horpe effect.

I find it odd that I got a ban for using colourful language yet the posters that inspired my last post before the ban got away with advocating violence towards animals and using the mauling of a young girl to prove some stupid point.

Maybe we should all swear, get a weeks ban and give the Mods a week off?

God no, deep down mods love the attention. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

I recently got an email telling me off for swear filter avoidance, no ban though. Hopefully that was due to the mods seeing that i was explaining what i had been called, and not aiming sweariness at anyone here.

So maybe they can take context into account.

The bunch of ****s 😉

It is, and it has been reported!

It's already been mentioned on this thread but I'd be happy with a ban on swearing directed at folk but OK otherwise.

But ref, I was swearing at myself!

Look, speaking as a moderator I think we should be able to use our own judgement.
After all, that's what we're paid for.

I've got Flashy again in the secret Santa btw.
Any ideas?

Good lord no.

If he waters and prunes it we'll all be knee deep in cheap plastic daps by summer.
We'll have to give 'em away as a free gift.
Still can't get rid of all those bloody sheep keyrings.

Your 12-year old daughter could be reading STW
I've always tried to be careful - but if I have got a 12 year old daughter then STW is probably how I'd find out about it

I think I got a ban once, it was a long time ago, for the swear filter avoidance thing, possibly because I used the alternative character instead of asterixes, which I hadn’t realised was what the issue was, instead of just typing ****
or $€¥#@£!

There's probably a thread to be had in that. We could have a Victorian Gentleman's Society.

We would need to exclude Flashy on account of his being a frightful cad and a bounder.

...and a rapscallion to boot.
