I got curious and checked how often it was said and I was going down the list of posts with it in and Raph was responsible for half of them

I remember using *******igh a few times too, back when I was new and impressionable

Basically the swear filter probably has more words that were inflammatory (likely to cause issues amongst members) on the forum than actual swears.

True story, literally only joined cause I saw the massive difference in numbers between Ashleigh and Helen fans, I came to fight the good fight for Ms. wood

I didn't even notice Helen having that much support when she joined, but I did see a lot of people set her to forum fave once she won

Tr ashleigh..I quite liked that being added and wish all the stupid nicknames people come up with were added. Used to make me rage, the amount of people who thought they were funny and original by using stupid stupid nicknames. Also it annoyed me that sometimes, they were SO overused that I would write them by ****ing mistake when posting then have to edit. So I was one of the dickheads too but not on purpose

I don't fully remember all the orangu stuff but fairly sure that was banned as a mix of 2 things, one it was being spammed everywhere, like ridiculous spam. 2 a few black members (and one who wasn't black..I think) complained that they found it racist, and I can see why, especially with how it was being used at the time by some (ie. some just spammed it everywhere some only ever used it when it was a thread about someone black). So yeah, not sure that will be removed.

(There were a few variations on orangu too IIRC, which didn't help at all with the 'racist' part)

People found MOORANGU racist not ORANGU

How can an orangutan be racist

Ah yeah I think that was right. As I said, I don't properly remember it all (basically remember the spam, and the complaints). Orangu was just spammed none stop by a few members and was annoying as **** and just..pointless, then the version that some found offensive appeared and was spammed, so the lot was filtered.

Bloody snowflakes ruining it for everyone
