You're not meant to. Not everything is filtered, there are plenty of ways you can type swear words and they're not filtered but that's not allowed and is classed as avoiding the filter by using them instead of the actual word that's filtered

Thats avoiding on purpose tbh.

But 'ahem' ent, its a very common word used really

Abbreviations aren't meant to be filtered really, we're not kids and if they get told off (which they won't), they can say "Well for this forum, we mean "***unk" and "LMFlippingAO" even though I think the A word is strangely filtered

i think ******* should be unfiltered, if piss is. I mean c'mon they really are not different. We've got the "Dont be rude" rule in place for "**** off" ect.

For the benefit of the thread.. now I removed it it's hard to understand but today is basically asking why abbreviated words of the "f word" are not filtered.

It wasn't abbreviated... It removed one letter which should be interpreted as anything and not the F swear word...

If it can be interpreted as rude, then it's going to get removed. If it isn't rude then just use the full word rather than abbreviating it to avoid the confusion.
