It was the family friendly argument at WOT that brought the swear filter. We've been rather open about it here at RAFO so far, at least until someone takes it to ridiculous degrees. I don't get what the difference between f*ck and fuck's supposed to be anyway.

I figured,but checking for filter subroutines seems like it would be pretty easy.

Well, honestly, I don't know, but I expect language filter subroutines are pretty standardized now.

Who cares about the cursing. In other ways wotmania did probably corrupt me, though.
