I vote for keeping it on in case anyone asks. While I'm as guilty as the next guy, it is easy to begin moving towards crude discussions or descriptions in otherwise thoughtful and technical discussion. Certainly there are ways around that filter, but when you have to think about it I think it minimizes the use of expletives. Too many young ones to allow free reign.
My two cents, Horse and Moderators.
Dispose of this as you wish.

Country: | I think the only ones that can change it are Horse and Even. I too think the filter should be in place. Not that a filter really does anything but as you said there are young ones around.

Not that I would try it, of course.

Country: | Not sure why the **** it broke. Might be when the server swap was done or on the last upgrade. Either way, I ****ing fixed it.  We can tweak it as necessary. I allowed **** and ***, because Richard's nickname gets blocked and Lancs full username. I got the biggies.
