@russ saidSo posts with the first name Dick or last name Cox or about pets like a pussycat or bitch (female dog) will be deleted?
Posts with swearing, obfuscated or otherwise, are removed automatically.
What if I want to talk about Great Tits which are European birds:

Or what if we're discussing boobies:

You mean we can't talk about the Red-breasted Nuthatch?

@soothfast saidSome words automatically trigger the alert like the word "cheating". My post will have an alert just having it.
Some apparently ornithophobic dingleberry is actually alerting some of these posts. My god, get a life!

@divegeester saidOne thing that might help is if the "Preview before post" thing alerted posters of anything that's disallowed. As it is, it's a crap shoot, and if the gamble fails there's an annoying tombstone for "the post that never was" littering the thread forever.
Seems legit.
