mild expletives

Lesson #1: Just because you CAN do a thing, doesn't mean you SHOULD.

if you have a history of not using profanity, then when you do use it, it goes a long way, and I dare say jumps out at the listener or reader. Constant use of it, and it sounds odd to the ear when you DON'T use it.

"Ass" is fine, as is the creator of Elric, Michael Moorcock. Calishite merchants rejoice that they can proclaim their nationality, though Morrus' favorite faux pas about keeping the finances straight, called "Acoing" by some, is still forbidden.

What about telling someone to go with a large ?

The great thing about the filter is you don't actually have to use any bad words. Just put in a random number of those ing happy faces.

Which, of course, once again leads back into silliness. Although dealing with this subject, I expected nothing different.

P.S. That smiley above in my post, is not a single letter curse, but a smiley face, nothing more, nothing less.

Just don't try to avoid the filter by putting in odd characters or spaces. That's a board no-no.

Oh, yeah? Well, I'll do that if I want, you !2=&# (-'!

Hah! Take that, mod boy! Do your worst!

Hey, listen, guys--I'm sorry that I've been such a pain over the last few years every time I show up on the boards. It's just that I have trouble relating to people in real life, and I build up a lot of resentment toward folks with good social skills; so when I find myself on the Internet, I sometimes go for the cheap thrill of being nasty to other people. But I know it's a bad habit, and it certainly doesn't make me a happier person. So again, I apologize, and I'm going to make a genuine effort to treat you folks with more respect and civility in the future. Thanks for working with me on this!

I always figured (perhaps wrongly) that if it wasn't "smilied" out, then it was cool. ...

That's how I've always done it as well. Type as you will and let the filter do it's job.

Just make sure you don't spell his last name phoenetically.

Hmm. Well, right now, we're trying to figure out if we can turn all your posts into smileys. Every last character.

Or hieroglyphs. Hieroglyphs are cool.
