No, seriously, the vulgarity filter is not working properly...

Shit is no longer censored. You can type shit without consequence. You do not have to star out shit(though you can if you want to). The profanity filter does ****ing work, and please continue to use the same procedure as before, just type out the words and let the filter do its job. As long as you do that, there will be no infraction issued.

lol...you're gonna have to downgrade the swear filter a little more to get to that point.

You all are going to awake the knights of standards and practices. I wouldn't mess around with that shit.

Just out of curiosity, is there a reason for that? I assume someone made a deliberate choice.

I can't believe this. Certainly the new software is able to star out words like shit because it does filter one other four-letter word I tested.

Now moderators are encouraging people to use profanity instead of the politically correct word for it, which is crap.
