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...

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

I thought I'd get around this by swearing in foreign languages, but **** me if I didn't get pulled up on it immediately!

Oops

You forget one thing - This is America. English IS a ****ing FOREIGN language! :rofl3:

interesting y is wank er *'d out :popcorn:
 
Is this like the George Carlin skit,the 7 words you cannot say on Scubaboard?

Except there's way more than 7. But creative people like Carlin always found ways to get around them. Here we can use equivalencies. For example ...

mother*******er = father
b***h = ex-wife, girlfriend, or spouse-equivalent unit (SEU) ... whichever applies
b*****d = ex-husband, boyfriend, or SEU ... whichever applies
N**I = DIR
s*** = PADI

I've been 'told' about my signature. They said it wasn't 'illegal, but...' I told 'them' to eat me, it stays. So there !!
