Swear Filter.

In consideration of:-

http://www.theanswerb...Question936013-3.html

It is my opinion that the Ed should publish a list of all words which have been banned for further use in the columns of AB.

There are many words in the English language which are now being used for purposes for which they were not originally intended and I understand are no longer permitted for usage in AB. e.g. Fag gots( if spelled without a space.) Consequently, I would find it difficult to ask for a recipe for such in the 'Food and Drinks' section.

Fair point doc.

Allow me to ammend my point -

swearing on an information exhcnage and debate website like the AB is futile - it gets changed or deleted, which negates the point.

Thanks Ed for having made clear the position in this matter.

OK. if we can't have a list of banned words,I feel sure that it would be of interest, to those of us who wish to refrain from being 'filtered' if we knew all the words which have been removed from the filter. e.g. Faggot, Bastard, etc.( All genuine English words.)

Furthermore, I would not wish to suffer the fate of a local farmer who was expelled from the village ' 'spelling bee' team because of his incorrect orthography for..'Auspices.'

I requested a recipe for Faggots 28/1/11 and had several serious replies, and had some for dinner yesterday, but preferred Brains Faggots from `Iceland`
