you don't achieve anything from using **** grammar.
Which is why you can unfilter it? :S

I am sorry here but I going to have to -Rep you for wanting to allow swearing. If you want to swear, go to a forum that DOES allow it!
Let's keep the standard high, there is no need to allow swearing.
What the **** is that ****?
Sorry but I think swearing can add emphasis that can't be achieved with other words. Saying "Oh sugar" instead of "Oh ****" just doesn't give it the same effect, it sounds much less serious and seems strange to me.
I personally think swearing should be allowed, after all if you think about it, it's only words.
If you refuse to allow it in the forums then it should definately be allowed on the chat. I recall a staff member giving the reason for the filter as "the forums are for formal posts, not conversations" - something along the lines of that.
The discussion of swearing on the forum has been had before, and was decided then (and still is) that the filter won't be removed.
Argueing within the thread doesn't particularly help the cause that you're asking for.
