          We have the swear filter there to stop some other members being offended, Randy, and to keep a conversation on an "even keel". I think even the most Saintly of us [like Shiney:heehee:] get a bit emotional from time to time and a good swear is sometimes the result.:gaah:

          However, I think that this particular rule and filter is a good one, so long as we don't get too PC, and as Admin we have to make people aware when there is unintentional/intentional breaching of it. So substituting a mutation of a swear word or oath is still not accepted. If other people abide by the rule then so should others out of courtesy, and to keep GC a site that all people enjoy.:snork:

              right, so if i accidentally type piss or illegitimate child, i'm to spell them properly so the swear filter picks them up.

                  Only the other day, I caught my Mrs trying to plant a Leylandii in the garden. I said to her "Get the tree out of my garden":heehee:
