[supershifty]

I don't see the problem with the filter as it is. It's easily recognisable when the filter kicks in with asterisks as to what the poster is talking about - it's not rocket science that it's to the point of incomprehension for the average person.

The abbreviations accepted on this forum like wtf, ffs, gtfo, fmd are all pretty clear. swmbo did my head in - urban dictionary and google sorted that out for me.

I swear like a ******* wharfie, never been cautioned for my posts. %^@% never got me in trouble either. I can usually find an acceptable forum friendly synonym/acronym for what I want to say.

This is a well moderated, well organised and user friendly forum - so good it's the only one I've bothered to become a donating member to.

Leave the swear filter the **** alone, show some respect, and use your imagination. ;)

Cheers!
