The "F" word. Vote it back in, or vote to keep it out.

Personally I think it's silly to have a single curse word censored. Not only that, I think most people would prefer to choose whether or not they should be allowed the use of it.

After all, most people that come here are usually over the age of 18. So clearly we're dealing with adults.

I vote the "f" word back in.

I personally don't see why anyone would need to use offensive language on the board anyhow... and seeing as this isn't an age restricted forum nor private as public viewing is enabled, no doubt minors will stumble across.

I vote no.

I think we DO get kids here, but I don't care... they probably all use more offensive language than most adults do. Still, I haven't missed the "F" word, and even before the ban, I was self-editing, anyway. I don't much care one way or the other, so I will abstain from voting.

[Illusional]

i think i started swearing in about 4th grade... yet today children are getting pregnant at that age...

censorship only leads to curiosity, which does explain why so many children want to have sex at a young age.

Isn't f*ck a medieval word that means fornication under consent of the king? It's an historical word! Bring it in!

[anachronistic]

people know what is behind the asterisks. might as well take 'em down and do the proper moderating instead.

[Gigabitch]

Personally, I enjoy the asterisks. I think they're hilarious, and I freely drop the word **** into every other sentence now, much more often than I used to.

I find it to be very freeing.

You're killin' me Giga.

Your vote is worth like 2, and you went to the lightside?

Vader would be disappointed.

[Gigabitch]

Considering that **** is the ONLY edited word, doesn't that make you want to use others more often? Think of all the descriptive epithets out there, just awaiting use. How about pestilent ballsack or wretched twat?

who really talks like that? honestly? try saying that shit to yourself in the mirror; you'll sound like a pasty white englishman.

C'mon Vashti, you should vote it back in! ALT+0250 is getting tiresome.

You say that like it's a bad thing.

[IndiReloaded]

Well, I say in b/c I think ppl should self-edit. And there are times when the word is good for effect. Besides its not like the web is FCC regulated or anything (yet).

i dare the FCC to even try to regulate the internet. i double-dare those motherfückers.

i think it's impossible.
