Naughty words.

Personally I have no problems with any slang, foul or vulgar language or swear words, and I would not get offended by any posts that contain it.

However this is an open forum that can be read by all age groups so this is why certain words are censored.

I very rarely use foul or vulgar language in my posts, except in the joke threads, and then I do my own editing, so **** becomes sh*t and **** becomes f*ck, etc. IMO, I think sometimes jokes or statements lose their punch, if a person is trying to figure out, what the word was, that was censored.
I find it hard to believe that anyone of a impressionable age is actually interested in or reading what we have to say on this forum. When I was of a tender age, I certainly wouldn't have been.

Jingjai. I would have thought you were still of a tender age However I feel we still have many of an impressionable age reading this forum, just that the age has gone up.
