The swear filter is on strike as it's demanding an inflation busting pay rise.

Aye, because you've never sworn on this forum, or the other.
not on this forum.......and this isnt the other. But this is site support. if i wanted a debate i would have put it in the main forum.

If anyone is bothered about swearing then report the post to the Mods - who can have a word with the culprit and/or update the swear filter.

Nah! The swearing filters are now on a subscription service like BMWs heated seats!

Mod Note:
@Shaun, the forum's owner, put a swear filter on Cycle Chat.
It says on the rules and guidelines that members should not bypass the swear filter by substituting symbols or letters to the swear word intended.
If you are aware of such instances, please report the posts to the mods team.
Cheers.

I now automatically type that where appropriate and wonder if there might be a reverse swear filter converting it back to a naughty word somewhere.

Does it matter? are you offended? if you're offended how do you cope with the bad language we here in real life.
Ask the owner, he built CC with a swear filter attached and rules about swearing.......he also states you shouldn't replace parts of the word with symbols, numbers etc etc to escape the swear filter.
As a member, you agreed to all these things when you signed up and accepted membership to this site.
Hope that helps

Thats an excellent sidestep, how do you feel about it? Or do you not want to discuss it?

I don't like seeing swearing either. It's pointless.
As to hearing it in real life, I mark the user down as of limited vocabulary and try to avoid as much as possible.
this isnt a discussion part of the forum, its Site support and the MODS agreed with me.....

In conversation, it is (to me) acceptable, particularly when said in the heat of the moment.
But written posts (or other writing) takes more thought and time, and there should generally be no need for it except in really exceptional circumstances.
