Swear filter broken - yet no warning?

Posters are breaking the swear filter left, right and centre. Yet it's only a few of us that have ever been infracted for it.

But yet we're all treated the same. Cough, cough.

I wouldn't have the swear filter in place, but with the younger members, I can understand that.

You can't see if other members get infractions, though. All I can say is I get sick of seeing constant asteriks and people having to work their way around saying words without fear of a ban or whatever.

I agree with the swear filter. I don't mind the odd swear word, but i don't like to read posts full of it.

How does the filter help with that? You already know the astrexis are swears so it makes no difference. And it's not as if members who don't usually swear will suddenly take it up if it's err ... legalised.

So uhh ... yeah.

I really think the censored thing is getting a little annoying. The 's' word is a re-worded version of the word "poo". Come on, it is just a different version of saying poo.

There shouldn't be a filter there at all tbh. It's like flogging a dead horse though. I doubt any of the admin. will even consider removing this ridiculous thing and keep it for the sake of it just being there.
