Topic: Swear Words and censoring

As a business I want to filter out as many swear words as I can. Especially because I am going to have new post links displayed on my main page. It's too bad there wasnt an easy way to post in a large list or words. I'm sitting here trying to think up ever word in the book, and it ain't short list, lol.

The cool thing about PunBB is the replace feature. That way when someone swears up a storm, you can make them look like they are babling giberish, at least until you remove them and their post.

Anyone know of a good rescource for swear words? lol

Re: Swear Words and censoring

A study of the attitudes of the British public found that f*ck was considered the third most severe profanity and its derivative motherf*cker second. C*nt was considered the most severe (Hargrave, 2000).

I don't know what it is about c*nt, but I agree. For some reason, it's just so dirty.
