Suggestion Q about "banned" words

[Warthaug]

I have a quick question about banned words here on SCUBAbaord - how exactly does a word get put on "the list". I understand putting profanity and whatnot on the list, but have been surprised by a few of the words which get starred out - certain 1940's-era German political movements for example.

Just curious...

Bryan

EDIT: Sorry, I forgot to ask my actual question, is there a way to recommend words be removed from "the list"?

****
Bitch
Ass
Mother****er
****
**** and ****

Wait, those aren't censored but ***** is?

Why would they be?
-bitch = female dog
-ass = type of animal
-mother = something we all have, but sometimes wish we didn't

Damn, that's HOT!

Spoken like a true New Yorker!

Or a Sailor.

Four letter words are my favs.

The "s" word was my fav but no matter how careful I was around my 18 month old...guess who knows the "s" word.

Why, thank you, thank you every much.

Or a Sailor. Four letter words are my favs.

Yes, I have quite the mouth when I'm pissed off. My fave is mother****er!!!

The idea is that, ideally, you don't feel the need to use the words we've ******.

El - Ideally, I'd like to live in the perfect world but sadly we don't. :depressed:

Well, I know people who can curse someone so eloquently that they even get thanked by the very members they're flaming.

Who needs banned words?

Yeah, I'm crass cause I'm not as eloquent as those people.

You can't be sure you're getting to someone until they want to sensor you!

 

[ScubaSteve]

I think ScubaBaord should substitute phrases for censored words rather than put *'s....."****head" could be "Fecal Cranium"....just a thought.
