    ^lol
    I think in instances like that it shouldn't be filtered but generally, it should be.

    As been said, there's no positive use for it what so ever.

    It also just points out how down to earth the rules are, it's getting as bad as my school and I don't get told off for calling someone a ****** there.
    Actually no you'd get in trouble for calling someone an idiot, but you basically said you want to use it as an insult?

    By the way down to earth means sensible

    Calling a mentally disabled person a ****** is, although terminology wise is correct, is not a very nice thing to do. Its the equivalent of calling a quadripalegic a cripple, or an epileptic a ****.

    Even though you unfiltered a word which is slightly more offensive than a word that cannot be used offensively without looking like a total prat at the same time? The initiative was good, but the other word requested could of been unfiltered too

    I can't speak on that as I really can't judge the word *****. Its not used in America, the first time I saw it was on here so I can't say I have a very good understanding of its severity, so I can't compare it either

    The word in the OP can be very offensive actually and so it should be banned, but it also is french for pull back or something because as an Airbus comes in to land it goes:
    "50, 40, 30, 20, 10, R*E*T*A*R*D, R*E*T*A*R*D."

    Its not just french, its actually English. It means to stop or to slow down. It must be the Latin root as it also can mean "slow person" which is closer to the more offensive meaning as well as the technical (but politically incorrect) meaning.

    However, the word that rhymes with firetruck also means intercourse, but that doesn't mean we're about to unfilter it because of its alternate meaning
