Having just noticed that a rather standard word has been replaced with the word 'Wally' on a thread, it now appears the full Swear Filters and Moderation are in place.
Brilliant!
I would just like to point out though, if anyone gets involved in a ridiculous flame war with some one in the near future it's going to have to be a little bit more sophisticated than the usual gumpf, otherwise it's going to sound like an episode of the Night Garden on CBeebies!
Just an observation.
HONK!

Wally?
I missed that one. So now I'm trying to guess...
Was the word W and the same number of letters, or just the W? Or did it not begin with a W at all?
Hmmm...

Well, normally I don't find circumvention is necessary. For example stating someone is an onanist is generally sufficient.
I regret I have let standards slip recently.
It happens to us all occasionally...

This 'swearing' thing bemuses me. Not saying it should be an effing and blinding free for all, but if everyone knows tulip means tulip, surely anyone who would take offence by the original word would take offence by its replacement. To me context is the thing - someone saying they've had a tulip day is different to someone telling me I'm tulip.

Daughter used to help out with Rainbows (mini-Brownies).
If Brownies are mini-Guides then just how young are 'Rainbows' ?
What is next, clubs for the unborn?
How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.
