Should **** really be unfiltered?

[The Professor]

I think someone suggested the filter be removed further up and let mods do the work, I think that's a good idea imo. Keep the really bad ones/racist ones filtered (the c word and the dreaded "n" word spring to mind) and let the rest be used freely with anyone who directs them towards other people being infracted under the insults rule. It'd make for a more pleasant and immature forum (swearing isn't big or clever) but it'd avoid the double standard of leaving piss, shiz and other such words unfiltered.

I don't think it should, if you saying 'Dick'theres no other meaning but if you say i *****ed my finger its not rude.
It depends on the content really.

I acutally agree with this point - Remove the filter completely, if the user decides to use the word in an inappropriate way - They should suffer the consequences.

Doesn't ***** mean like a erected penis?

And it's not even filtered.

Supposedly, where I come from anyway - Thats why I bought it up.
And Jhr has explained it depends from where you come from but overall it is classed as that, yes.

I think the forum should be like 'school rules' to put it bluntley - You wouldn't be able to say Piss or ***** at school, whatever year you are in, so?

I know the forum has over 16s on it, but the majority are 13-16 right?

Pretty much, or that's what a thread made it seem when it asked for the ages of users.
