To my understanding, in the feedback forum the avoiding the filter rule is relaxed somewhat if you're giving examples in a discussion. There is actually a thread called "D 1 C K" in this forum which doesn't appear to have been edited, so I'll point Elkaa in the direction of this thread to clarify that rule. However, the report infractions thread is still the place to report them
As for the original question, I think the infraction was fair because it was clearly insinuating a swear word, and I find it beyond the realms of possibility that people actually think of it as "laughing my flipping bottom off." Lmao suffices in that situation, there isn't much need for the extra f.

Well then, you're going against common internet slang and the A word is filtered in lmao so technically you can't say that because it's got swearing, even though it contradicts the "Don't Swear" ruling. LM*AO is a word like ROLFLMAO, it's for effect.To my understanding, in the feedback forum the avoiding the filter rule is relaxed somewhat if you're giving examples in a discussion.

Jamie is an amazingly hard worker and a very nice person but I feel he is used as a vehicle by others who load the bullets while he fires them and generally does their off white work. Perhaps you should think about that Jamie? He also does need to consider if something actually deserves a warning or infraction before pressing the infraction/warning button.
Quantity - amazing Quality - could do better.
If you look at the reported infractions you'll see that they have all been deemed fair by other super moderators, so there's no lack of judgement here. It seems people are just breaking rules so I'll infract them and they can pretend it's unfair. If there's a post which avoids the forum language filter, it gets reported and we have to deal with it. I deal with most of them because they come up when I use the 'New Posts' search so I see them before the other moderators.
So I can report the warning I recieved for the post I made saying 'F and then a U right after it' isn't filtered?To my understanding, in the feedback forum the avoiding the filter rule is relaxed somewhat if you're giving examples in a discussion.
