Spelling censorhip?

In the TOS (point 6 Member Conduct)…It is stated as a condition of use that you agree not to “Post, email or otherwise make available any Content that is unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, tortious, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, libelous, invasive of another's privacy, hateful, or racially, ethnically or otherwise objectionable”

So where is this evident in the forums? I am actually for the censoring of foul language which they do a good job of… but only as long as it’s spelled correctly?! What is the point of that?

You can curse a blue streak as long as you spell fukc or sh!t like this or similar, but get the post modded if you have the temerity to spell your curses correctly?!? What’s being modded, the cursing or the spelling…clearly the spelling! Who here doesn’t know what is meant by STFU or some similarly non clever acronym or the intentional misspellings in the previous examples?

What’s the point of censoring the spelling and not the clearly understood curse that is thinly disguised?

This is a self moderating forum. The subscribers alert any posts that they find offensive. If enough subscribers alert the post, then it is removed.

I once had a post with f!ck removed, but the exact same re-post with the quaint feck remained.

People obviously get more offended when the swear word is more in your face by being spelled right???

It's not a matter of anyone being offended, It's a matter of abiding by the Terms of Service, whereby you and others have agreed to moderate yourselves.

It's just a matter of faith?

Frack is not misspelled, it's a word from battlestar galactica, and I spelled it correctly. It does'nt mean the same thing that you might think it does.
