I agree, I think that its pretty annoying that every time i say S**T it writes crap etc,, I think we can all control ourselves to some degree, and sometimes a good cursing out is a good way to let out some steam.

Having an uncensored forum opens you to a big liability issue when it comes to whiners and parents of kids. In California if you run an uncensored forum you can't have anyone under 18 participate in it. But if they lie and say they are 18 and get caught...you still can be held liable.

C.y.a and leave the censors in place for most of the words. I thought the replacement for gay was funny :D

Oh and if you can't type without swearing, then you have serious issues.

I know a lot of you are immature kids and think it's "cool" to swear, but you really only show how ignorant you are when you follow the crowd.

Man up and think for yourselves.

swearing isn't a 'coolness' thing, its based on the language you're accustomed to hearing and using as u grow up. i made this point before. what you just said is like saying "I know all you mexicans think its 'cool' to have a mexican accent but you'r really just doin the same as every1 else. (was tryin to think of a dialect and merc popped into my head :), took me like a month to figure out he was mexican tho..)

Most younger people don't seem to even know English, let alone how to curse properly! ;)

If you're going to change it, Paint, consider adding a rule as to where the limits are. Believe me, you'll want one somewhere.
