Please keep in mind that language filters/censored words often play a role in whether or not a workplace blocks a given site. Suggestions for word replacements in the event of a language filter also appreciated.
Let the debate begin!

Suitable for work, imo.

I think instead of replacing the words with nonsensical things, we should just put an asterisk in there. F*ck, Sh*t, B*tch, etc.

So far there is only one word censored on this board, and I'm ok with it.

I think having a filter pushes people to use other words rather an curse words, if they REALLY want to get around the filter then they can find a way.

I don't mind either way. Nothing is blocked at work. I don't swear so it doesn't affect my posts. I'd rather have asterisks than replacement words as Zapp suggested.

Okay, so now I'm assuming it's not a swear but some sort of slur.
And I'll be fucked sideways if I'm going to type out a list of hateful slurs to test out the filter. You win this round.

One thing I just thought up of: if you're so worried about being able to surf this site while at work... don't you think you should be working instead?
At my job, they don't allow cell phones on the floor (only in the break rooms, on break times) and there aren't personal computers.

The "don't talk about drugs" rule does apply here.
